    What Kind of Adventure?

    Graphic Adventure Was it fun? It was a short/interesting game. Are there any similar games? It reminded me of Murdered Soul Suspect Favorite Character? I didn’t think anyone was that likable. Would you play it again? No, I don’t think there is any replay value with this game. Any Complaints? Its really short and the controls were    What Kind of Adventure?

    Its really short and the controls were iffy at best. There were times where I would have to spend 5 minutes just trying to get the controls to work.

    A história do jogo é uma boa história, não esperava menos uma vez que é escrito pela grande escritora Agatha Christie, porém, o gameplay é cansativo, é um daqueles jogos que você quer que termine logo, um gameplay parado e sem ação com puzzles razoáveis.

    Agatha Christie was a genius. I have loved every novel written by her that I read. I did not read previously the novel this game is based on so I really enjoyed trying to solve the crimes being Hercules Poirot. I suppose that if you have read it previously, it may not be so interesting because you already know the plot. Pros: Nice game. Great BSO. Entertaining puzzles. Cons: I wish itAgatha Christie was a genius. I have loved every novel written by her that I read.

    Un buen videojuego de detectives, con una buena historia y un buen desarrollo de los personajes que aparecen. Sin embargo, hay varias cosas que podrían ser mejorables. Por ejemplo, a la hora de unir las pistas, es complicado saber en algunas ocasiones cuales son las que van juntas, ya que muchas encajan con la pregunta en cuestión.

    En resumen, un buen juego sin más, que cumple con lo que parece ofrecer desde un primer momento.    … Expand

    A shallow game that should be played on a mobile device, not in front of the TV. I actually had some fun with it, as I was amused by its broadly defined ineptitude. [04/2016, p.49]

    Ultimately it suffers from clumsy controls and simplicity, but the ABC Murders still boasts a solid storyline (obviously), if you're not seeking a serious challenge, the cosy-crime feel makes it passable for a rainy Sunday with a mug of a hot chocolate (Belgian, of course). [Apr 2016, p.92]

    Despite those flaws however, Agatha Christie: The ABC Murders still provides a great and thoroughly engrossing crime story that any fan of the point and click genre will surely gleam some enjoyment out of.
