    Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot: The London Case is another enjoyable mystery with great gameplay and a complex storyline that'll keep you guessing. I'm definitely looking forward to Blazing Griffin continuing to improve the series and seeing what they come up with next.

    The London Case is a better game than the previous on in virtually any expect. It doesn't have the same compelling cast of characters, but its mystery is way more compelling.

    Weaving an intriguing tale that’s filled with twists and turns, we’ve enjoyed spending some time in Poirot’s shoes and solving the mystery of The London Case. This is a budget title and it shows, but there’s still a lot to like, especially if you’re a fan of traditional point and click adventures. It’s a bit of a journey back in time in that regard, but it’s a valuable addition to the genre nonetheless.

    Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot: The London Case follows the footsteps of its predecessor and delivers an excellent mystery worthy of the author's best works. With simple mechanics and an unstable look, however, its best qualities lie in the way the investigation is conducted and in the twists and turns that only good stories in this genre can provide.

    Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot: The London Case has its fair share of issues, but if you're a Poirot fan you'll still get a kick out of it.

    An enjoyable mystery in keeping with the Hercule Poirot you know and love, but not one with much interactivity beyond smashing together evidence. [Issue#32, p.74]

    Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot: The London Case is an enjoyable, if unambitious detective yarn. Though its simplicity might fail to stimulate the tactile minds of more practiced video game sleuths, the resolutely relaxed and accessible detective beats on offer mean that newcomers will find few better introductions to the genre and should probably feel free to add a point to the review score below in the process.

    This game is the worst! I don't really understand how story and characters are that bland.
