Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express


With no way off the tracks in this ultra-linear adventure, solving the murder by numbers couldn't be blander

But even as a flawed game, Murder on the Orient Express still manages to draw you in with lush environments, a stellar score and top-notch voice acting (which manage to make most of the protracted conversations at least marginally interesting). In a pleasant twist, Murder on the Orient Express even comes with a paperback copy of the bestselling novel of the same name - so whether you prefer the actual novel or a slow paced game acting like a novel is entirely up to you.
