    We thought that Tintin was going to return to video games successfully, but the game is failing badly. With its complicated launch, Tintin Reporter Cigars of the Pharaoh is a game that can be forgotten. And it's not just the technical problems, but also its shaky, poorly chosen and totally childish gameplay. The rare moments of action in the 10/12 hours of adventures are undoubtedly the least successful, with a graphics engine which is unfortunately not adapted to the situations. The inertia of Tintin (but also of Snowy) is completely lacking, the animations are cut to pieces and the game is sorely lacking in dynamism. It's soft, it's boring and it becomes problematic, especially the infiltration phases coming from another time, at least 20 years ago. Here too, Pendulo Studios proves to us that apart from point & click gameplay, the studio seriously lacks the expertise to render epic sequences.

    There’s potential here for a good time, but Pendulo and Microids have failed rather miserably at giving Hergé’s beloved character the game he deserves. Riddled with bugs and shallow gameplay that is all over the place, Tintin Reporter: Cigars of the Pharaoh is a disappointing experience that even a diehard fan of the series will have trouble enjoying for long.
