Comment (by criezy):

 We have a detection entry for a Polish release of the game, but it looks
 like yours might be a different version we don't know about. To properly
 detect this version we need the MD5 for the first 5000 bytes of the
 following game files:
 * General.clu
 * Docks.clu
 * Text.clu
 One way to get those is to run ScummVM in Terminal.app using the `--md5`
 option as below:
 {{{
 MacBook-Air % /Applications/ScummVM.app/Contents/MacOS/scummvm --md5
 --md5-path=/Applications/Games/Broken\ Sword\ 2/Text.clu
 --md5-engine=sword2
 TEXT.CLU (data): 9b344d976ca8d19a1cf5aa4413397f6b, 304968 bytes (first
 5000 bytes)
 }}}
 You will need to adapt the command with the correct paths to your
 ScummVM.app and Broken Sword data files, and run it for all 3 files I
 listed above, and paste the result you get here (the example above if for
 my version of gog, but yours should give a different result). An easy way
 to get the correct path is just to Drag & Drop the file on the
 Terminal.app window (you can also do that for the ScummVM.app but will
 need to manually add the 'Contents/MacOS/scummvm' part).

 > I have the remastered version in GOG ([...] but I do not see the
 original game folder on the Mac version of the game.

 I also have the remastered version on GOG. The original game is available
 as a separate download in the game Extras both on the website and in GOG
 Galaxy. There is both a Windows and a Linux version. On a mac I recommend
 downloading the Linux version as it is a simple .tar.gz archive file that
 can easily be decompressed (just double click the file).
