Broken Sword: The Sleeping Dragon moves away from the 2D point-and-click concept from the earlier games and features a full 3D world, with a camera that does not rotate, but uses fixed cinematic perspectives, combined with full 5.1 sound. For the Windows version the game is no longer controlled through the mouse, but now through the keyboard, for the movement of the characters as well as all the actions. The player alternately controls George or Nico. Next to typical adventure gameplay such as exploration, conversations, and searching and combining items, there are also a few action sequences. The characters can duck, sneak, hang from ledges and move crates to reach higher areas. Read less

I thought I had played this one but I guess it miss my radar I think out of all the games it's got the best storyline and personally I like the gameplay although I know a lot of people who are more old school prefer the 2D and no climbing. honestly I would have not been able to play this game if it couldn't have been played with my controller. I do not see how people had the patience to play this game without one. But with that being said it was a fun play and I guess I'm going to play the last two since I did buy the other ones. Not a bad ol' skool game and fairly lengthy.🤷🏽‍♀️
