A film version of the classic adventure game Broken Sword is moving ahead after years of stalled efforts. Production company Story Kitchen is leading the project in partnership with the game's developer Revolution Software. The news emerged recently through industry reports.
The 1996 title Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars follows American George Stobbart and French journalist Nicole Collard as they unravel a Templar conspiracy across Europe. Revolution Software crafted the point-and-click game with a grounded tone and hand-drawn visuals that stood out from cartoonish contemporaries of the era.
