Welcome aboard the Reuss Express, a journey of a life-time derailed by an unexpected assassination.

Prior to a plane summary - let me say I fully recommend this game as a hidden gem in our lacking point-and-click games times - if you like the genere of course.
For the main summary:
Pros: Moderan art yet pixelated fun, point and click game (which I am always on the lookout for). Awesome story and storytelling, alongside music and effects.
Cons: Riddles and puzzles were quite easy (altough fully logical and coherent to the game).
In addition - and that's me being picky - the item bolding could have been mouse middle button and than no keyboard will be needed :) but that's just me.
So, generally speaking, no cons.
Great kodus to the game creators!
This is some fine point-and-click adventure, probably one of the greatest ones i have played and enjoyed through in years!
Puzzles are not out-of-this-world, tho couple caused a bit head scratching. VA is extremely well done, story fun and light-sided but constantly progressing and well built. Music and tone fits overall atmoshpere greatly.
While ending kind of knotted the ropes, i really hope to see someday continuation for the trio here. They all contributed to the enjoyment game gives out and it would be shame if we wouldnt get more of them in the future.
Enjoyed this a lot. Not a big point-and-click adventure player, so a couple of the puzzles were a little arcane for me - unlikely to be a problem if you're not new to the genre, it was more about me not being in the point-and-click mindset. It includes a 'helpline' to keep you immersed in the game if you ever get stuck.
Really liked the theme and style, and the gentle sense of humour.
Definitely recommend this one. And if you're, like me, a novice with this type of thing but like the idea - go for it, the helpline removed any need to search online for clues.
Hope there will be a sequel!
A fun little mystery game; just the right length for busy players. The writing is genuinely funny (especially the ill-faited heiress) and each of the main characters has their unique spin on the case. The mechanics for switching between them and their inventories made for fun puzzling.
