Other games

Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror

There are 2 different spellings in German. One of the Original Release, and one of the Budget Release. For your information, "Finsternis" is the correct German spelling.

  • French: Les Boucliers de Quetzalcoatl
  • German Original: Baphomets Fluch II: Die Spiegel der Finsternis
  • German Budget: Baphomets Fluch II: Der Spiegel der Finsterniss
  • Italian: Broken Sword II: La Profezia dei Maya
  • Russian: Сломанный меч 2: дымящееся зеркало
  • Spanish: Broken Sword: Las Fuerzas del Mal

The game uses the following heuristics to find out which font to use: It looks up the string that, in English, would say "save". If it's "tallenna", it uses the Finnish font, if it's "zapisz" it uses the Polish font, and otherwise it uses the default font. It's currently unknown whether there actually are any Finnish or Polish version of the game.

Another unusual detail is that the name of the game is stored in the game text resources. According to a left-over comment in an unused function, there were four different titles: Broken Sword II (English), Circle of Blood II (American), Baphomet's Fluch II (German) and Some game or other, part 86 (default).
