What players say
I reaaally wanted to like this, but God, it is just a slog. The writing and all the voice work aside from Poirot himself, is comically bad, and whilst the addition of a secondary lead was interesting because it allowed for the plot to be expanded beyond just what is happening on the train, the way they chose to end the story what lost me. It was just baffling. They tried to go for a 'twist' ending but considering...
The most boring Agatha Christie's game I've ever played. It's a very poor attempt to introduce "mind map" like in Sherlock Holmes games with the difference that all the answers are linear and questions are incorrectly articulated. I've played around 2h and I am afraid I cannot do it anymore. The graphic is nice though and the train depicted beautifully, the small positive in the ocean of negatives of this game...
"The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances." Elementary. Well, not quite.
