Do you like Poirot?
well this game has Poirot lol :D it's not exactly a traditional point and click adventure game though. It's more of an interactive Poirot story. The gameplay consists of checking out the environment for clues and interviewing people. You don't pick stuff up, you don't combine items, you don't do any puzzle minigames, with one exception. Poirot solves everything with his genius brain, so to progress in the game you have to connect the right clues in the mind map to unlock new ideas, connections between evidence, and new options for questioning the suspects. So that's the only sort of puzzle you do in the game. In the easy mode if you make wrong connection three times the evidence that can be connected to something starts flashing, so you can't really get stuck. If you pay attention and go through the investigation properly you might even get a better ending. If you want to enjoy a Poirot story then you'll get that with all the twists and turns of a Poirot story, although whether the walking around that extends the gameplay time is for the better or worse, I don't know, but imho it becomes a bit of a chore . If you want to shuffle inventory items around then you won't get that, because this really isn't that kind of a game. Also, this is obviously not the short and pudgy David Suchet Poirot, so too bad if you were looking for that. :D
