Broken Sword has beautiful art, some solid puzzles, and a somewhat unusual mechanic that I really liked and imitated in Primordia (having tools that are useful over and over again, rather than just once). But it's a strange game. Thinking back, I have a hard time say whether it's a slapstick farce or a serious game. Like, I just can't remember. Part of my brain recalls it as not too far off from Gabriel Knight; but part of me remembers that the main villain dresses up like a clown or mime or something and tries to kill someone with an exploding accordion ...?
