    A solid detective yarn with decent puzzles and a procession of absorbing mysteries to unravel, Agatha Christie: Death on the Nile is an intricate and enjoyable, albeit slightly shabbily presented, adventure with a slightly unusual 1970s style.

    Agatha Christie – Death on the Nile is the most enjoyable Hercule Poirot game I’ve played to date. With engaging puzzles, dual protagonists, and a well-paced mystery, it improves on its predecessors despite a few pacing and polish issues. Fans of Poirot and thoughtful detective work will find plenty to enjoy.

    This new iteration of Death on the Nile includes some clever puzzles, but unfortunately, the positives end there. The incredibly slow pace will certainly turn many players off, while the addition of a parallel storyline feels disjointed and lacks the quality of Agatha Christie's original narrative. All in all, this adaptation of one of the most famous whodunit mysteries is, unfortunately, one of the weakest.

    Spending these few hours in the shoes of the famous Hercule Poirot and young detective Jane Royce allowed us to experience an adventure full of twists and turns thanks to well-written investigations that take on their full meaning as the story unfolds, the mind map and the well-thought-out puzzles (far more numerous than in Agatha Christie - Murder on the Orient Express). Finally, thanks to a gameplay that encourages players to think and interact, there is no doubt that Agatha Christie - Death on the Nile comes out on top. As fans of the "whodunnit" genre, we really enjoyed discovering all the different aspects of this title. Fans of crime novels or video games similar to Frogwares' Sherlock Holmes series will enjoy discovering (or rediscovering) this new iteration of one of Agatha Christie's most famous works.
