4.0 out of 5 stars A great mystery game with a few minor problems..., November 30, 2007

This review is from: Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None (Video Game)

Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None" is one of the greatest mystery classics of all time. This being so, it would be especially hard for anyone to recreate a computer game on a classic. However, this game actually does a pretty good job of it.
The background graphics are well done, especially inside the house. The character graphics are a little ridiculous-looking, but one gets used to them as one plays. The voice acting is really well done; with Patrick Narracot, Emily Brent, and Judge Wargrave the best of the pack.
Overall, this game was really fun to play. It didn't cause a lot of frustration, but it wasn't too easy, either. Some puzzles didn't seem to make sense, and I had to refer to a walkthrough maybe twice, just because the solutions don't seem like something you would actually do in real life to solve that problem. The dialogue was all first-rate, with much of it being recognizable from the book.
I am one of those people who, even though it means that the end of the game would be spoiled, insists upon having the unchanged original ending of the mystery; and when it comes to the legendary Dame Agatha Christie, it's a must. The fake ending that ends the game is contrived, stupid, and almost impossible to follow. I was outraged when I saw this, but, thankfully, there is a bonus section at the end of the game where you solve one more puzzle. Then you get to see the REAL ending, exactly as Agatha Christie planned it-- both plot-twisting and clever, along with the *gasp* factor.
If you are like me and love mysteries and mystery games, this game is a must, especially for fans of the Nancy Drew computer game series (like me). But if you don't like a lot of dialogue and long gameplay hours, then it's not for you.

I found this game to be a lot of fun. The play was smooth and the controls were easy. It was very addictive to follow the characters and see who gets "bumped" next.
As with most pc mystery games, you will need a walkthrough cheat as some parts are impossible to figure out. Also, following the paths around the island takes much time to understand. (A "quick jump" option would have been nice as going from one end of the island to one of the bedrooms in the house is time consuming.)
I highly recommend this game to the mystery/adventure lover, also the game takes several hours to complete so you get your money's worth.

4.0 out of 5 stars And then there could be one or two, June 20, 2007

This review is from: Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None (Video Game)

I love interactive games. Before I played "And Then There Were None," I had just finished playing "the Black Mirror." I was very disappointed in how that finally turned out. So, I needed something to take my attention away from that.

My comments can be reduced to the following:


1. Overall, I had a lot of fun with this game. It kept me going. There are some scarey scenes, which is fine with me. It was entertaining keeping track of who was gone and who was still with us.

2. I liked the protagonist. Since I knew he was not going to be killed, I opted to try to save his love interest, Vera.

3. Loved the various endings.

4. Liked some of the side trip activities, i.e. making apple cider and apple juice from apples in the orchard.

5. One criticism: I sometimes inadvertently didn't pick something up some inventory. What happened was, I didn't have the means to do some activities. They weren't vital, but when accomplished, something did come of it.

6. I strongly reccomend that you go to a walkthrough site to get maps and diagrams of the mansion the surrounding land. Otherwise you walk around (or you can run) without accomplishing anything because you can't find your site. I made notes to myself on where to find certain bedrooms easily.

If you're looking for a fun way to spend an afternoon or if you have insomnia and want stay up scaring yourself a little bit, I say play this game.
