1. Introduction
===============================================================================
Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars was originally released on the PC in 1996.
The game tells the story of an American tourist named George Stobbart who is on
the trail of the Templars. The Nintendo DS version features many new scenes and
puzzles which make getting this version worthwhile even if you have completed
the PC version. Nico also gets her own separate adventure which won't take long
to complete but is well designed and fits in well with the rest of the game.

2.1. Nico: Paris - First Visit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION
------------
Nico receives a call from her editor and is asked to travel to the Palais
Royale to interview the media tycoon Pierre Carchon. As Nico approaches the
building, a mime steps in her way. She humours the mime and passes by. As she
presses the doorbell, the mime continues to glare after her. Nico is let inside
by Pierre's wife, Imelda, while outside a ladder is put against the building.
As Nico and Imelda are talking, outside a glass cutter is used on the window
and then a silencer is seen to a gun. Pierre introduces himself to Nico and
mentions that he knew her father. A vase is dropped in the study and when
Pierre goes to investigate, a gunshot and a scream are heard. When Nico enters,
the mime is seen standing over Pierre's body. He beckons Nico to come closer,
then knocks her unconscious with a punch when she gets near. Imelda goes off to
call the police while Nico is left in the study to investigate.
PALAIS ROYALE
-------------
Examine Pierre's body to see a closeup. Get the hair clip on the floor near
Pierre's head. Operate Pierre's jacket to see a blood stain and a gold object
in the pocket. Get the gold object from the pocket to see that it is a ticket
stamped "Bateaux de la Conciergerie". Exit the closeup view. Exit the room on
the left to enter the hallway. Examine the cloth on the table and then pick it
up to reveal a tiny hole in the table. Use the hair clip on the hole to open a
secret compartment. Get the key from the compartment. Exit the view.
Get the tube of paint below the painting and Imelda will question what Nico is
doing. Talk to Imelda about Pierre: She doesn't believe that Nico is sorry.
Talk about Pierre again: She has no idea why Nico was called. Talk about Nico's
father: Imelda didn't know Nico's father. Talk about the mime: Pierre had many
enemies. Select either option when Imelda asks if Nico has any moral sense.
Nico now mentions that Imelda lets her investigate and not the police. Again,
select either the good or bad option when it is presented. Imelda agrees to let
Nico investigate and gives her the key to the drawing room.
Walk to the right side of the hallway and use the drawing room key on the door.
Enter the drawing room. Examine the painting above the fireplace. Press the
small button at the left side of the picture frame and a click will be heard.
Operate the picture to reveal a safe. Use the safe key on the keyhole to open
the safe. Get the stone cylinder. Examine the desk at the right side of the
drawing room. Get the carved elephant. Use the tube of paint on the in-tray.
Use the stone cylinder on the in-tray to roll it in the paint. Use the painted
cylinder on the blotting paper to reveal a secret message. Get the message from
the blotter. Exit the drawing room and walk to the left side of the hallway.
Talk to Imelda and Nico will leave for the quayside on the Ile de la Cite.
ILE DE LA CITE
--------------
Walk to the right side of the quayside and operate the gate to see a closeup.
Examine either lock. The aim is to slide the bar with the latch all the way
along to the other side, but any blocks that are in the way need to be moved.
This is a long and difficult puzzle at such an early stage of the game, but
there is a shortcut to bypass it: Slide the stylus from the top-left corner of
the screen to the bottom-right corner. If you want to try and solve for the
puzzles for yourself, carry on. I have included the movements I used to solve
both puzzles, although there are many other ways that the puzzle can be solved.

After solving both lock puzzles, the door will open. Go through the doorway to
enter the skiff room. Operate the skiff and it will fall over, revealing an old
shell case below. Get the shell case. Use the stone cylinder on the hole near
the door at the left side of the room to open it. Open the inventory and look
at the secret message print: It contains the message SDSSDSS. This is the code
that now has to be entered, so press the left button once, right button once,
left button twice, right button once and left button twice. Get the stone
cylinder and then go left through the doorway to enter the anti chamber.
Use the shell case on the right doorway to put it under the door. Operate the
cross in the middle of the room to flatten the shell case. Get the flattened
shell case. Operate the cross in the middle of the room again. When Nico pulls
the cross back, open the inventory and use the flattened shell case on the
cross to hold it there. Use the stone cylinder on the hole in the panel. A
mechanism will trigger which was meant to open the door at the left side of the
room, but it has been jammed. Get the flattened shell case from the cross. Use
the flattened shell case on the door at the left side of the room to open the
door. Continue left through the doorway to enter a dark room.
Walk to the right side of the room to see a red flashing object. Operate the
object to turn on the lights. Walk to the left side of the room and examine the
top of the desk. Examine the photographs to find out that Nico is being
investigated. Examine the newspaper articles. Exit the desk view. Operate the
top-right drawer on the desk to find a note written in code. Operate the drawer
again to pull it all the way out. Get the photograph from the hole. Open the
inventory and examine the note. Use the translation for the code below.

The message now reads: "Pierre. Full report to follow. But this is too urgent
to wait. Arno and Yamada both dead. This is not a coincidence. Indeed it seems
that all of us who came together in July are in danger. Take great care. X"
After deciphering the message, Nico returns to her apartment to write up her
story. When the phone rings, Nico answers to talk to her editor Ronnie: He
tells her that he will not publish the story that was written. Nico realises
that someone must have got to him, and Ronnie tells her not to pursue the story
any more as Carchon had powerful friends. When the phone rings again, a man
named Plantard says that he wants to meet Nico at the Cafe de la Chandelle
Verte tomorrow morning to discuss the Carchon story.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.2. George: Paris - First Visit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CAFE DE LA CHANDELLE VERTE
--------------------------
The game now switches to George Stobbart sitting outside of the cafe. George
watches as a clown enters the cafe, and inside the clown places an accordion
on the seat. The clown runs off, and seconds later, the accordion explodes and
destroys the cafe. George picks himself up and his adventure now begins.
Walk north toward the construction site. As George walks into the area, a
police sergeant draws his gun and aims it at George. A police inspector arrives
on the scene as well and guides George back toward the cafe. Select any answers
to the inspector's questions. George receives the inspector's card and then
leaves the bistro. Outside, get the newspaper that is curled up at the bottom
of the lamppost. Look at the writing at the bottom of the newspaper: "Salah Eh
Dinn - 1345". Look at the picture of the man on the left page. Exit the view.
Talk to Nico and she will introduce herself to George as a photo-journalist
the newspaper La Liberte. George tells Nico that he saw a clown enter the cafe
before the explosion, and Nico realises that it is the costume killer again.
Talk about the clown: She doesn't want to talk about him. Talk about Plantard:
He had a story that he said would interest her. Talk about the clown: Nico
gives George her phone number and then leaves to develop her pictures. Walk
north to return to the construction site. Give the newspaper to the worker and
he will notice the horse Salah eh Dinn is running in a race. He tells George to
keep an eye on the hole while he leaves the area to place a bet.
With the workman gone, get the toolbox in white tent to find a metal rod. Walk
west to return to the cafe area where Sergeant Moue is now standing guard
outside the entrance. Go through the arch at the right side of the area to
enter the alley. Use the metal rod on the iron cover to remove it. Go down the
hole to enter the sewer. Get the red object on the floor to see that it is
actually the clown's red nose. Walk north to the next sewer section. Get the
tissue on the floor and the piece of cloth from the spike. Climb up the ladder.
George emerges from the sewers into a courtyard and sees a man standing above
him. The man mistakes George for someone else and demands that he exit the
sewer. After standing up, he asks George what he was looking for. Select any of
the options that are shown: The man had not heard the cafe explosion. The man
wants to be sure that George is not in league with the man he chased earlier,
so show the card to the man: He now believes that George is a police inspector.
Show the piece of cloth to the man: It is the same cloth as the jacket he
found. Ask about the jacket four times: On the fourth times, the man tells
George the name and phone number that were on the label. Exit the conversation
to leave the courtyard. Walk right to exit the area.
POSTE DE POLICE
---------------
Operate the right phone on the wall. Select Nico and she will tell George the
address of her apartment in Rue Jarry. The game now switches back to Nico.

Exit the apartment and walk west out of the area to view the map.
CAFE DE LA CHANDELLE VERTE
--------------------------
Walk west to the cafe to see the workman boarding up the cafe. Talk to the
workman about himself: Nico wants to take his picture. While he turns away to
brush his hair, quickly enter the cafe. Operate the mirror leaning near the bar
to move it. Examine the mirror to see a close up view. Examine the gold object
in the reflection to see that it has been lodged in the gap behind the pipes.
Examine the table to see the damaged pipes. Get the gold pouch behind the pipe.
Examine the pouch in the inventory to find an artefact and a coded note. Look
at the coded note and decipher it. Refer to the translation grid that was shown
earlier in the walkthrough as the same symbol to letter code is used here.
The message now reads: "Plantard. Pierre killed. Murderer must have followed
trail from Arno and Yamada. He will come for us now. We must be vigilant.
Thierry's girl broke into Pierre's safe. She worries me. Imelda.". Exit the
cafe. Walk north to the construction site and east to return to Ile de la Cite.
ILE DE LA CITE
--------------
Go through the doorway into the skiff room. Walk west into the anti chamber.
Operate the cross. When Nico pulls the cross back, open the inventory and use
the flattened shell case on the cross to hold it there. Use the stone cylinder
on the hole in the panel. Get the flattened shell case from the cross. Walk
west to return to the state room. Use the artefact on the small hole at the
right side of the safe on the wall to open the safe. Examine the safe to see a
closeup. Pick up the pieces of the photograph and Nico will spread them out on
the desk. Place the pieces of the photograph together to see that it is a
picture of Nico's father. Nico returns to her apartment to meet George.

Talk about the piece of cloth and Nico will show George a photograph of the
killer wearing the same material. Exit the conversation. Leave Rue Jarry.
LA RISEE DU MONDE
-----------------
Talk to the man behind the counter. Show the tissue to the man and he will

Enter the hotel. Walk to the left side of the lobby and try to get the key from
the board above the counter near the clerk. Talk to the clerk about the key: It
is for room twenty-one. Go upstairs and operate the middle door to see that it
is locked. Go downstairs. Walk to the right side of the room and talk to the
woman playing the piano. Show her the photograph and she will recognise the

Talk about the key and she will walk over to the clerk. When the clerk leaves
the room, quickly get the key from the board before he returns. Go upstairs.
Use the key on the right door to enter room 21. Operate the window at the right
side of the room and then go outside onto the ledge. Walk along the ledge and
go through the right window to enter room 22. Try to exit the room to see that
Khan is approaching. George quickly hides in the wardrobe. Khan enters the
room, changes clothes and then leaves. Examine the pants on the bed to see a
closeup. Pick up the pants at the top of the zip to turn them over. Operate the
left rear pocket to find a matchbook. Operate the thread above the left pocket
to remove it. Turn the pants over again and then operate the right pocket to
remove a pass card. Exit the room to return to the hallway. Go downstairs.
Talk to Lady Piermont about Moerlin: He passed an object to the clerk about an
hour ago. Talk to the clerk about the safe: He wants to see identification.
Show Moerlin's pass card to the clerk: He still refuses to let George see the
contents of the safe. Talk to Lady Piermont about Moerlin's pass card twice:
She returns to the clerk to demand that he retrieve the contents of the safe.
The clerk returns and gives a manuscript to George. Go upstairs and enter room
21. Go out the window onto the ledge. Use the manuscript on the alley below to
throw it down. Return to room 21 and go out the door. Go downstairs and then

view and Nico will suggest visiting the Musee Crune. Exit Rue Jarry.
MUSEE CRUNE
-----------
Enter the museum. Operate the tripod in the middle of the room to see that it
is identical to the tripod in the parchment. George notices that the tripod is
from Lochmarne in Western Ireland. Walk outside the museum and exit the area.
RUE JARRY
---------
Talk to Nico about the tripod. Exit Rue Jarry and select the yellow arrow at
the top-right corner of the city map to see the world map. Select Lochmarne.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.5. Lochmarne
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter the pub and talk to the man at the corner of the bar. The man introduces
himself as O'Brien. Ask O'Brien about the castle: It dates back to the tenth
century and much of the existing building was added later. Ask about the
tripod: It was dug up by an Englishman named Professor Peagram. Ask about
Peagram: He left the village. Ask about Peagram again: O'Brien doesn't know
where he has gone. Ask about the gem: O'Brien asks if George is a reporter, so
answer however you like. Exit the conversation with O'Brien.
Talk to the man at the table in the middle of the room to meet Fitzgerald. Ask
about Peagram: He knows he is an archeologist. Ask about the dig: He seems
guilty when George asks him if he worked at Peagram's dig. Talk to the man
sitting next to O'brien, Doyle. Talk about Peagram: He doesn't know him. Ask
about the dig twice: He knew people from the village worked at the dig. Ask
about Fitzgerald: A drink might help persuade him. Select the drink icon to buy
Doyle a drink, then ask him about Fitzgerald again: He did see him at the dig.
Talk to Fitzgerald about the dig: George tells Fitzgerald he knows he was at
the dig. Ask about Peagram: He gave him a package to deliver to Marquet. Ask
about the package: He promised the professor he wouldn't open the package. Ask
about the package again: He says that Marquet will kill him if the package is
opened. Ask about Marquet: Fitzgerald stands up and runs outside. A sound of
screeching tyres is heard, then a boy named Maguire comes into the pub and
tells everyone about an accident outside. Exit the pub.
Outside, Maguire tells George that Fitzgerald was hit by a red sports car. The
driver then got out and pulled Fitzgerald into the car. Maguire adds that the
driver was dressed as a pixie. Operate the switch at the left side of the pub
doorway to break it off. Walk right and go up the path to the hay cart. Talk to
the farmer about the red car: He saw it but assumes the driver must have been
lost. Talk about the car again. Talk about Fitzgerald four times: George says
that he will guard the hay cart while the farmer leaves for the pub. Climb up
to the top of the haystack. Use the metal rod in the crack in the wall by the
side of George's left hand. Climb over the top of the wall into the castle.
Move to the left side of the area and operate the plough share. The goat will
butt George out of the way and the rope will become tangled on the plough
share. Move right and climb down the ladder. Get some plaster from the sack on
the table. Examine the statue on the floor at the left side of the doorway. Try
to pick the statue up and it will fall over. Get the statue again to lift it
back up, leaving a pattern of holes in the sand. Use the plaster in the holes.
Climb up the ladder and go up the steps to exit the castle.
Climb down from the haystack and return to the bar. Talk to the barman and
answer his question about whether George wants a room however you like. Ask for
a beer: The pump is broken and he only wants a professional electrician to fix
it. Show the pass card and the barman: He will only allow George down to the
cellar if he can fix the glass washer. Get the towel on the bar. Talk to the
sneezing man about the wire: It is a necklace. Exit the conversation. Wait for
the man to sneeze and then get the wire from the table. Use the piece of wire
on the plug behind the bar to fix the glass washer. Enter the cellar.
Use the lever on the wall: nothing will happen. Exit the bar and operate the
trapdoor to open it. Enter the pub and return to the cellar to pick up the
blue gem. Operate the faucet and then use the towel on the water. Exit the bar
and return to the castle. Go down to the cellar. Examine the statue and use the
plaster on the holes in the sand. Use the wet towel on the holes in the sand.
Get the plaster cast. Use the plaster cast on the panel at the left side of the
door. Go through the doorway. After a cutscene, George returns to Paris.

2.7. George: Paris - Third Visit
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RUE JARRY
---------
Leave Rue Jarry.
POSTE DE POLICE
---------------
Talk to Sergeant Moue about Marquet: He used to be known as the mole of
Montmartre. Ask about Marquet again: Moue gives George the location of the
hospital where Marquet is staying. Exit the station.
HOSPITAL
--------
Enter the hospital. Show the pass card to the woman: She says that Marquet has
been asking for Moerlin and tells George the name of the ward is. Ask about
Nurse Grendal three times to get directions to the ward. Walk down the left
corridor to see a man polishing the floor. Try to open the door near the man
and he will stop George. Operate the plug near the water cooler to stop the
polishing machine from working. When the man leaves to investigate, open the
door to get the doctor's uniform. Walk left to enter Nurse Grendal's ward.
Grendal gives George a pressure gauge and tells him to look at Eric Sopmarsh in
bed 3. Try to walk right and Eric will ask George to take his blood pressure.
Walk left to exit the ward and then walk right to the hospital lobby. Talk to
the man standing at the right side of the desk and he will ask George to look
after his nephew Benoir. Answer his question however you like, as George will
agree to show Benoir around either way. Walk left twice to Grendal's ward.
Show the pressure gauge to Benoir. Try walking right to be stopped by Eric
again. Talk to Benoir about the pressure gauge and then mention Eric. While
Benoir is taking Eric's blood pressure, continue right and enter Marquet's
room. Maruqet will mistake George for being the killer. He tells George that he
should deliver the Lochmarne gem to the Grand Master, and that the tripod has
been found in Paris. As Marquet begins to mention about Syria, another doctor
enters the room and tells George to leave. Outside the room, Benoir gives the
pressure gauge back to George and then a beeping noise is heard from Marquet's
room. George returns to the room and sees that Marquet has been killed.
RUE JARRY
---------
Exit the conversation with Nico and leave Rue Jarry.
MUSEE CRUNE
-----------
Enter the museum and talk to Andre Lobineau about Montfaucon twice: It is found
near the Canal St. Martin. Exit the conversation. Wait for the attendant to
look away and then operate the rod next to the window. Walk to the sarcophagus
at the right side of the room. When the attendant walks over to close the
window, operate the sarcophagus to enter it. A cutscene is shown when Flap and
Guido enter the museum at night. Use the totem pole to try and knock it on to
the Flap and Guido. George's plan backfires when a section of the totem pole
falls off and drops onto his head, causing him to fall into view of the two
thugs. Just as they are about to investigate, Nico drops down and rescues him.
RUE JARRY
---------
Nico shows George the tripod she took from the museum. Leave Rue Jarry.
MONTFAUCON
----------
Talk to the clown about himself twice: George attempts to juggle. Show the red
nose to the police officer at the table: He asks if George is a clown. Show the
red nose to the clown and George will impress the crowd. The juggler will get
frustrated that George managed to impress the crowd so easily and walks off.
Use the metal rod on the manhole cover and then go down to the sewers.
Use the metal rod on the right door to reveal a mechanism. Operate the lever to
open the door part of the way. Operate the winching machine on the boat to
unwind the chain. Get the hook at the end of the chain and George will carry it
open to the partyly open door. He then operates the winching machine to pull
the rest of the door open. Go through the doorway and examine the hole in the
wall to see a secret meeting of the Templars. Go down the steps. Examine the
stump in the middle of the room. Use the tripod on the stump. Use the gem on
the tripod to reveal letters that spell the word MARIB.
RUE JARRY
---------
Nico tells George that Marib is a village in Syria. Exit the conversation with
Nico and leave Rue Jarry. Go to the airport and select Marib.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.8. Marib
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MARKET
------
Go up the stairs at the right side of the market. Show the matchbook to the
carpet seller and he will let George pass by to the Club Alamut. Operate the
locked door at the right side of the room. Examine the door. Talk to Ultar
about the sign on the door: The door has been locked because the toilet brush
has gone missing. Talk about the photograph: He recognises the man and tells
George that he was in Marib yesterday. Ask about Bull's Head Hill and answer
yes when Ultar asks if George wants to go: He wants fifty dollars first. Exit
the Club Alamut and walk left through the doorway to the market.
Examine the kebab seller to see the toilet brush. Talk to the kebab seller and
then exit the conversation. Walk to the left side of the market and talk to the
boy, Nejo. Ask Nejo about the kebab seller twice: He agrees to help if George
gives him an item. Give the red ball to Nejo and answer yes: He then tells
George a phrase to say to Arto the kebab seller. Walk back to the right side of
the market and talk to Arto about the phrase: He chases George up the stairs.
Walk back down to the market and talk to Nejo to get the toilet brush. Walk
right, go upstairs and return to the Club Alamut.
Show the toilet brush to the manager to get the toilet keys. Use the keys on
the door to enter the bathroom. Use the keys on the roller towel dispenser and
then operate the dispenser to get a towel. Operate the chain above the toilet
to get the chain. Exit the Club Alamut and return to the market.
Walk to the left side of the market and operate the cat on the table near Nejo:
It will jump up to the shelf. Quickly use the bell on the table and the cat
will jump down from the shelf, knocking the statuette down as well. Get the
statuette. Open the inventory and combine the tissue with the statuette. Show
the statuette to the man walking around in the yellow shirt and he will buy it
