Broken Sword
The "Broken Sword" franchise is Europe's most successful adventure series, selling six million units; "The Shadow of the Templars" and "The Smoking Mirror" are Revolution's best-selling titles, each selling a million copies. With the decline of the adventure genre at the beginning of the 2000s, sales of the "Broken Sword" series decreased as well, with "The Sleeping Dragon" and "The Angel of Death" selling a few hundred thousand copies. During the so-called "adventure renaissance", the two "Broken Sword" remakes were met with success; in 2011, the "Director's Cut" and "The Smoking Mirror: Remastered" sold 500,000 copies on the iOS alone. By 2005, before the release of "Broken Sword 4", the series had shipped above 2.5 million units to retailers worldwide.
