I love this game because I can reference it and it makes me sound cool and pretentious for liking an old obscure cult classic Scarab puzzle is still bullshit tho

A game ahead of its time. Really good investigation thriller. Must play

To be honest, I dreaded playing "The Last Express" because I heard it's pretty hard and time-consuming, and I'm not sure whether the gameplay would be to my liking. But I gave it a shot finally. After 2,5 hours of playing, I had no idea what I was doing. My buddy got murdered on the train so I did the only sensible thing and took over his identity. This game feels a bit like "Cruise for a Corpse". I walked back and forth between the sleeping cars, tried to get into the compartments when the conductors coudn't see me. I kept a notebook handy, trying to keep track of who's who and where they sleep. I think I should have spended more time eavesdropping on conversations in the restaurant than trying to find items or clues. At that point, I hadn't used the rewind function so I guessed I would only have to do it in Constantinople when it became obvious how bad I played and how much I missed. I read this game requires multiple playthroughs to get the good ending, I was just hoping it wouldn't get boring that way. I was very surprised that I finished it in 6 hours time. I had to rewind a couple of times during the on-board concerto. I had a hard time finding the master key, and I died a couple of times because Kahina brained me, and also I accidentally blew up the train a couple of times. There's an in-game hint system that basically tells you where to go and what to do in the form of Robert's thoughts and I refrained from using it for the first half of the game, but it was too tempting for the second half. The game felt a lot like that movie "Source Code" for a bit, which is funny because Jake Gyllenhaal stars in that movie, and he also plays the "Prince of Persia". I just wasn't very good searching the cabins, or getting inside them to begin with. And at one time I couldn't even get out anymore (I got in through the window and wanted to leave that way too, but it turned out I just had to use the door. Go figure.) There's actually a lot to read in this game, and I always skimmed through the text fast because I was afraid a passenger would walk in on me. Which never happened, actually. And the infamous top-of-the-train fight kept me busy for a while, too. I also got a bad ending because I didn't acquire a certain item, so had to rewind again. But to be honest, the gameplay wasn't as difficult as I feared. Though I still felt there's a lot going on in that train I wasn't not aware of in a single playthrough. So I played through it a second time. Knowing what to do this time only saved me half an hour. I got a bunch of extra scenes and conversations, like dancing with August. I lost a lot of time waiting for Alexei to make his move. I don't know what I did the first time but there it happened sooner. It's a very intriguing game and I recommend it if you want to immerse yourself in an old world.

this fucking RULES. get the original version though, this one's an ios port and while it's instantly compatible with modern systems, it makes the game feel cheap

This is a captivating adventure game set aboard the (last) Orient Express in 1914, right before the First World War. Its real-time gameplay and rich narrative immerse players in a world of intrigue and espionage. While its unique mechanics may not appeal to everyone, its hand-drawn art style and engaging story make it a standout title in the point & click adventure genre. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3264975787 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3262227399
