Why has the reclusive Colonel Dijon called his rivalrous relations together? It's a mysterious re-union at his secluded mansion, deep in the bayous of Southern Louisiana!

Explore the gloomy estate in an attempt to discover who is murdering the Colonel's guests, and why...
I have played this before and enjoyed it then. Decided to revist this game and still enjoyed it to this day. It is fun to gather all the clues and talk to the different characters. If you have that nostalgia feeling for old Sierra games then give this one a try.
Sierra should be commended for trying their hand at something different and developing a murder mystery SCI adventure where the focus is on observing for clues rather than a total reliance on puzzle solving for gameplay. However, being at the right place, at the right time creates its own problems which at best, makes the game very challenging, but at worst, increases the chances of entering unwinnable states. I wanted to like this game but without access to a walkthrough, I would've found it too frustrating and would've likely abandoned it.
Back in the 90s, I can't count how many times I played through this game. The atmosphere, the tension, the mystery, the satisfaction of figuring something out -- it all adds up to an amazing gameplay experience that I've never seen replicated. As a fan of King's Quest and Quest for Glory, I was a bit hesitant about jumping into a game where you're playing as a girl in her pajamas, but man this game will go down in history as one of my absolute favorites of all time.
I've played a lot of old Sierra games but always missed this one. Definitely worth a play through. Or a few of them. I'm looking forward to finding more of the things I missed.
