Art of Broken Age Book (Limited Edition)

Art of Broken Age Book (Limited Edition)
Limited Run Games

120 pages of pure artistic documentation, wrapped in a plush cover that pairs with the Hexipal plush like they were always meant to sit together. The Art of Broken Age Book, Limited Edition, chronicles Tim Schafer's beloved adventure game through the art that brought it to life, and it does so with the care this game's legacy deserves.

Broken Age holds a unique place in gaming history as the Double Fine Kickstarter project that helped ignite the crowdfunding revolution for games. The art direction was central to its identity, a storybook aesthetic that made every screen feel like a painting you could walk through. This book captures that development journey in full color on every page, with a foreword and detailed annotations from Schafer himself providing the context that transforms pretty pictures into meaningful creative history.

The plush cover is an unusual touch that sets this apart from standard art books. It gives the volume a tactile warmth that matches Broken Age's handcrafted visual sensibility. The limited edition designation means these won't be reprinted indefinitely, so the window for acquisition has a horizon. For adventure game collectors and Double Fine devotees, this is the kind of art book that actually adds something to your understanding of the game rather than just repeating screenshots you've already seen. Schafer's annotations alone make it worth the shelf space.
