Broken Relic brings a modern love letter to classic point-and-click adventures to Kickstarter

Solo developer Pablo Morales (King, Rebellion, Ubisoft) has launched the Kickstarter campaign for Broken Relic, a pixel-art point-and-click adventure built with classic DNA: witty interactions, clever puzzle chains, and scenes you want to linger on. The campaign is live at Kickstarter and it also has a great demo on Steam.

“I grew up on LucasArts and Sierra, trading puzzle solutions at school and dreaming of making one myself. Broken Relic is that dream: a heartfelt, modern take on the adventure I always wanted to play,” said creator Pablo Morales. “If those games shaped you too, I think this will feel like home.”

What is Broken Relic?​

You play Tim, an apprentice who unleashes an ancient threat and must recover three relic shards to set things right. Expect characterful dialogue, hand-crafted pixel art, and puzzle design that rewards curiosity over guesswork.

Key features​

• Classic point-and-click feel with smart, readable puzzle chains
• Hand-crafted pixel art and expressive character animation
• Character-driven dialogue with humour and heart
• Non-linear shard hunt, tackle regions in your own order
  

Rewards for fans and collectors​

Backers can choose digital editions or go physical with retro big-box releases (Classic/Deluxe). Limited NPC cameos let supporters appear in-game. Full reward details are listed on the campaign page.

Interesting game.

 

[CHEESE ENJOYER]

It does nail that late 80s early 90s adventure game look from games like some of the King's Quest games. Wasn't really a huge fan of the genre though.

I play EVERY P&C I can so this is right up my battlefield.

The last one of these types of games I think I played and enjoyed was Theresia for NDS. Pretty dark game too. The sequel was some kind of mobile only thing in Japan though, shame.
