Broken Sword: The Smoking Mirror, the classic point-and-click adventure sequel to equally classic point-and-click adventure Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars, is coming to iOS devices, just in time for the holidays.
Following the success of the original game - in Director's Cut guise - on Apple's mobile devices, Revolution Software is poised to unleash Broken Sword: The Smoking Mirror - Remastered, continuing the adventures of George Stobbart and Nico Collard as they investigate a mysterious ancient Mayan artefact.
The Smoking Mirror - Remastered is set to get a similar makeover to its updated predecessor with new animated facial expressions, improved background and animation graphics, plus audio and visual enhancements to cut-scenes. The game also features Game Center support, a new context-sensitive hint system, an interactive digital comic, courtesy of Dave Gibbons, and Cloud saving by Dropbox. That last one means you can load and save your game across multiple devices - a feature we hope more developers introduce to their titles.
According to Revolution's official site, we can expect iPhone, iPad and iPod versions of the game "very shortly" with the remastered edition heading to PC and Mac early next year.
