Buy George! Broken Sword 5 Kickstarter Reaches Its Goal

Revolution’s Kickstarter to fund the completion of a fifth Broken Sword game, The Serpent’s Curse, has reached it’s $400,000 goal. That’s no small feat, and yet another healthy demonstration of people’s interest in the increasingly tangible ghost of adventure games. With over two weeks left, this should mean we’ll see some stretch goals appearing on the site soon, as the developers had stated they’d be waiting until they’d dinged their target before revealing them. I think they were being modest. It also means we’ll definitely see a new adventure for George, Nico and dubious French accents, possibly appearing as soon as April next year.
