French version of the compilation DOES NOT include Broken Mirror 2, comes with 5 games instead of 6 only...??

I submitted a description revision when I approved those covers.

Should work here, because of the lucky aspect, that Broken Sword 1 and 2 both done by Revolution, and the genres also remain the same, so the fixed description should work for this one :)

I guess I'll split is sometime when I am in the mood. Retail compilations which include different games should never be in one entry.

Here there are no "different" titles in-/excluded, it's only Broken Sword Part 2, that is missing in the French compilation, it has the same Developer, and the same Genres like Broken Sword included in both variants. So in such cases, there is no really need to separate them as new game entries. There's no "critical info" involved, that makes the existing entry incorrect/wrong. We have this several times for such cases on file, Paul submitted the description revision, no need to do more imo.

I don't particularly care either way. The reason I approved those covers is that I've seen similar cases before (although I can't seem to find examples now) of compilations with the same name having slighly different content depending on the country or sometimes platform and still be the same entry.
