I got this game at Target the other day, and started to play it when I got home. I thought it was really fun until the screen turned all white and I couldn't play anymore. I took it back to Target and got another one. Same thing happened. I took it to a relative's house and tried it on her computer. Same thing. I took that one back and went to another store and tried it again. Same thing happened. Finally emailed the company and they said it was my computer, which doesn't make sense because I tried it on two different computers (both XP). If anyone has had this problem and has a solution, please tell me.

Good game

I enjoyed this game. I liked going back in time; I would love to vacation there =) I didn't have any trouble with the graphics and my computer is 4 yrs old. I have a gforce something or other from around the same time. It's not David Suchet unfortunately, but I thought the voice was very close. Remember to double click to make travel faster.

I write and read reviews to help other people find a game that's worthwhile. First of all, im going to be a little biased on my review of this game because the game kept freezing up constantly and it took 1-2 minutes for each different location to show up, so i had to quit before i even had a chance to complete the game. I have a fairly new computer and ive only had a couple of games not work on my computer, so i don't know if it was my computer or the game itself causing the complications. Anyway, why im giving it 2 stars is because the game gives you basically two general areas to explore. Once you've explored them you keep running back and forth and combing the same areas over and over waiting for something new to come about. That gets boring, I like new locations that pop up as i progress. The other Agatha Chrisie games i've played were enjoyable but this one wasn't very good at all.

Save your time

I don't write many reviews. Only if I feel strongly about an item. In this case, a game that I wasted many hours on. At first, I was intrigued, then I was curious (when was this game going to "get going?"). Then I was bored to death and frustrated because I was too stubborn to end my own suffering.
I love adventure games. Only 2 have made me write a poor review.
I hope you choose another game. I hate to see developers getting good feedback and sales for a job poorly done.

Can't review game because my computer graphics aren't strong enough to play the game, which looked like it would have been fun.

This is my third Agatha Christie game and it is great! The only problem is that when I enter a certain part of the island, I see Poirot walking like a snowman through a blizzard. There is no color. I have written the tech support about this and have not received a response. Maybe it is the disk...I don't know. But overall, it is a great game.

not a good game

I am a point and click gamer and I love Agatha Christie unfortunately this game doesn't provide much enjoyment.
The plot is there, the graphics are OK and if you love clicking over the place in many areas to find what Poirot is supposed to do next then fine. But if you are looking for a good mix of plot with some puzzles thrown in to break the tedium then you are in for a disappointment.

There are only 2 puzzles - one piece together a letter and once a puzzle box. the rest is all find the items and use them but that doesn't really rescue the game as there is so much dialogue. If you haven't read the book and wish it to be like a more interactive book then this game might be for you but for gamers looking for some puzzles etc then keep on looking.

You don't even get the book with this game. the 1st game in the series was the best (and then there were none) the second one is more like this game, long dialogue so if you liked that one you might like this one.

Good Game Play, But Bad Ending

The game plays was very good and it brought the book to life. But the ending was the same as the book, well except fpr the fact thecouple was not married. In short good game play, but same ending.

If you love Agatha Christie or love mystery games this is the game for you. All the agatha Christie games are good but I like this one the best. It's a very challeging game, so if you are looking for something easy this the game for you

Great Game

I enjoyed this game. I love a good mystery. The graphics were nice and the game was not hard to follow. Just listen to the conversations and follow the clues.
