Okay I'll admit I was weary of buying this game as I'd heard it wasn't really an adventure but more of a hybrid. I found this to be compeletly false. This is strictly a third person view, adventure game.While not the normal point and click (you have to use the arrow keys like in Grimg Fandango and SOMETIMES a choice of up to four keys).I disagree with the previous reiveiw that this was hard to do without a joystick.I don't own a joystick as the only games I play are adventure games.While I will admit the game controls took me about five minutes to figure out, it didn't take away any enjoyment of the game, in fact it feel as though I'd just sloved the first puzzle! Honestly from me I felt the use of these buttons incorperated more enjoyment, with this game as sometimes (when George or Nico would have to climb a wall by pressing w or do they jump by pressing s)was a puzzle all in itself.There by making the game feel more real and the puzzles fully a part of the game.Also while I only play adventure games I am mediocore at them at best often falling to the use of walkthroughs.I found I only had to look at a walkthrough for this on the first stealth sequence as I'd never had to do one before.Yes there are some places that require stealth however the timing is easy to do, and for a person who hasn't played a game other than an adventure since pac man, I still didn't have too much trouble with it I can honestly say it didn't distract from the game.My only complaint was I felt the story could have used a bit more of an ending but with broken sword 4 currently in the works I don't mind too much :).I really loved this game and I rarley say that, infact the last time I liked a game enough to review it was.... the longest journey.I love the direction and chance this company took with trying out something different from the same old point and click (I never thought I'd type that before!) and hope to see more games like it in the future.Trust me if you liked the Gaberial Knight series or if you just want a good adventure check this game out.
