The first installment in the Broken Sword series, Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars, also known as Circle of Blood in the United States, used a variant of Revolution's Virtual Theatre engine. The game follows an American tourist named George Stobbard and a French photographer named Nicole Collard, as they investigate a murder in which George is a suspect, and discover a conspiracy involving the ancient order of the Knights Templar, the group of men selected by the Papacy to fight in the Crusades.
