THE FUSE

1996’s Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars was recognized at the time for its cinematic delivery of a point-and-click adventure, in a time when the genre was best known for outlandish cartoon goofs. Revolution Software’s approach was a lighthearted but far more grounded tale of international conspiracies and Indiana Jones-ish adventure. Rumors of a movie version have been around for its entire 30 years, but it seems that this time—via Variety—something might actually be happening, this time helmed by Story Kitchen, the production company behind the Sonic the Hedgehog movies.
