‘Broken Sword: The Directors Cut HD’ for the iPad

TouchArcade Rating:

Revolution Software has just released the iPad version of Broken Sword: The Director’s Cut. Broken Sword is a remake of a point-and-click adventure from 1996 that many have considered one of the best in the genre. We reviewed the iPhone version of the game back in January and even gave it a 5 star rating — making it one of the best iPhone games in our January rankings.

The iPad version adds graphical improvements, a digital version of the Broken Sword comic (which must be unlocked in the game), and new content.

“This really is the definitive version," says Charles Cecil, managing director, Revolution Software. “Rather than rush the game out for the US launch, we have taken the time to get it just right, and with the higher resolution graphics, and the addition of the digital comic as a bonus feature, there’s a lot of new content to enjoy. We are thrilled to be able to release the game to coincide with the European launch of the iPad."

Here is the video trailer for the iPhone version:
