March 2025

Good game for the most part, it's a little slow paced throughout and could have done with a v-sync option and some audio ducking and levelling for the voices to hear them better at times, I actually liked the mind map, it was simple enough so I was not stuck there for too long a lot of them are close to another although some connections/links seemed out of place in my mind not a big issue really for me. Voice cast was pretty good overall. I liked the plot and even though I had some early suspicions the twists were mostly surprising and the story had a satisfying conclusion in my opinion, I had a good time.

My partner and I just finished playing through the game, we very much enjoyed the cosy experience it gave and were surprised how good the story actually was. The voice acting is excellent (and I'm annoyingly picky) especially the man himself who sounds spot on as a young Poirot. It's also mostly voiced, which is very impressive for such a game. The only things not voiced are general letters you find and Poirot's inner thoughts. People talk about the 'mind map' style deductions as being overly simple or having confusing answers. This is true to some degree but we quickly learnt the best way to tackle these to get the most out of the experience: 1. Whenever you get a new piece of information, check your mind map. You will have a little notification to check and the notification will clear when you come back out. This way when you have connections to find you will always know it must be one of the new points. 2. Do the working out. Yes you might have gathered that A gets to Z, but read what Poirot says or asks and that will help you to follow the correct path to the solution. 3. Connections are 90% of the time close to each other. There was only two times I believe that a connection crossed over a line, they are generally placed in a way that makes the whole map neat and organised. The only real negative for me is that there is an awful sound whenever you move forward a dialogue box, this meant we had to play the entire game without sound effects. This only became apparent twice when we were meant to hear a loud noise, but it was obvious what had happened. I would suggest in future the UI and Ambient sound effects being offered as separate bars in the menu. Overall we enjoyed the game far more than we were expecting from the reviews and found the ending very satisfying which is hard to do in a mystery game!

Nov. 2024

Buy on sale- worth the time spent for a fun mystery. But it's also a little bit of drudgery at times with the many many deductions- and the cut scenes could have gone a tad faster.

Oct. 2024

One of the best whodunnit mystery games in recent memory, a lot better than the last installments in the Sherlock Homes franchise who seem to think that gore or endless wandering in an open environment can be a replacement for critical thinking. Loved the complex characters, the dialogues and the twists and turns. On the con side, despite nice visuals, the game is very static and which makes it more of an interactive 3D book than a true game. The part I liked the list, were the descriptions of the clues in the logical schemes, which often made linking two clues together more of a senseless trial and error. You can't write one thing then completely mean another. I understand that the developer didn't want to make solutions too obvious, but there were better ways to do it. Loved the mechanism, but hated the implementation. Hopefully, better job next time and I really hope there will be a next time.

Oct. 2024

This was an enjoyable, relaxing game with a linear story line and not difficult to play. It did contain a lot of dialogue between Poirot and the characters which did become tedious at times The mind maps where the clues, evidence and information gathered are combined was interesting and different to me although some of the connections made were too large a leap in logic for me while others so obvious that I overlooked them.
