How to Distract the Goat in Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged
Gamers looking to get past the goat in Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templars: Reforged can do so with the help of this guide.
All Missable Broken Sword: Shadow Of The Templars Trophies
The Broken Sword series is known for its challenging puzzles, and the addition of missable trophies adds even more of a challenge. Use the following steps to unlock them all:
- Truth Bomb: The first missable trophy is obtained right after the explosion inside the cafe. Inspect the old man on the floor first. Then speak to the waitress next. With the prompts answer with a thumbs down twice and then a thumbs up to get the waitress to pass out and award the trophy.
- Indecent Proposal: Order two drinks in the Irish pub, drink them, and order a third to unlock the trophy.
- Social Work: Speak to everyone, the farmer by the castle gate. Then ask Maguire, the boy outside the pub to shake hands.
Now open a dialogue with all the patrons inside the pub – the fiddler won’t acknowledge George – exhaust all dialogue options and learn their names by speaking each one of them.
To discover the name of the man sneezing in the corner, George needs to remove the towel from under Doyle's arm. Wait until Doyle raises his arm for a drink, grab the damp towel, and then show it to the landlord.
- Medical Attention: In the Paris hospital inspect the medical chart, the intravenous fluids, and the machine before speaking to Marquet.
- Fish Food: After getting the tripod, return to the police station speak to Inspector Rosso, and ask about Peagram.
If Peagram's dialogue option doesn't show, don't keep asking him about the Templars, cancel the conversation with Rosso, and he'll explain what happened to Peagram.
- Impressing Nobody: Save the game, carelessly walk through the lower tunnel, and ignore the gap for voices. After hearing George foolishly attempt a citizen's arrest the next scene cuts to someone digging a grave. You'll need to reload the last save but the trophy will activate.
- Line of Duty: Before leaving for Marib return to the police station and ask the young policeman about Sergeant Moue.
- Repeat Offender: Before using the paint pot, get Nico to distract the painter three times.
- Shared History: Speak to the Old Lady sitting opposite George and Nico about everything in George’s inventory, Ensure you exhaust all dialogue options.
- Coping Mechanism: Combine the clay pipe and the red nose to use them on the Gargoyle’s head.
