You are sitting on a luxurious lapis-lazuli-blue settee, surrounded by mahogany paneling and delectable culinary treats, riding Europe's most exquisite long-distance passenger train. It is 1922, and 40 intriguing ticket holders have boarded the newly designed train, the Orient Express, for a historic, event-filled journey from Paris to (then-named) Constantinople, covering 1,980 miles in less than 80 hours. Before your elegant excursion, Puzz 3-D invites you to help construct this famous train. Taking on the project is hard work, but it comes with rewards. Orient Express begins with four puzzle levels: easy, average, challenging, and super challenging, each offering a different ticket status with the completion of the puzzle. Whichever level you choose to tackle, the pieces are laid out before you on a construction table complete with organization trays; snapshots of the finished Orient Express; historic sound, text, and video clips; and the optional timer.
Once completed, you board the train as an invisible presence--perfect for giving you access to passengers' personal information. Your passage crosses European country after country (no border patrols yet!), but your sole landscape is the plush train interior and your exotic fellow travelers, including a flapper, an Egyptologist, a famous French movie star, and even a psychic. The famed Madame Sosotris, known for her clairvoyant powers (and the only one who can see you), invites you aboard to be "destiny's agent," affecting the outcome of this fateful ride. Information and character clips, as well as mahjong tiles (Sosotris's tools for her psychic powers), lead you to answer questions and puzzles regarding a few of the suspicious passengers.
This 3-D puzzle provides hours of entertainment. The historical video segments and sound clips will help players glean a better understanding of the development of railroad travel, as well as its continuing allure outside the United States. In addition, the train itself has a story to tell. Orient Express takes advantage of its rich and mysterious past, making the CD-ROM much more than just a puzzle. --Madeleine Miller
