<span class="bold">Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders</span>, an investigation/mystery adventure, is now available for pre-order for Windows and Mac with a 20% discount, DRM-free on GOG.com.



For some people murder comes as naturally as reciting the alphabet. For others the same is true for solving them. Hercule Poirot, the eccentric, mustachioed detective with the formidable grey cells, is one of those people. "A" is for his adorable belgian accent. "B" is for the impressive brain power possessed by such a little man. And "C" is for all the clues you will need to examine during your desperate investigation that will put a stop to the murdering spree of the appropriately named "A.B.C. killer".

For not only is this man terrorizing the British countryside by leaving a trail of alphabetically sequential victims, he even has the audacity to personally challenge the great Hercule Poirot by questioning his intellectual prowess. Such insolence cannot stand! Step into the well-polished shoes of the legendary detective, collect information, question the suspects and establish the timeline of the crimes. Your deductions will decide this sinister battle of wits and secure Poirot's reputation as the ultimate detective of our times. And the most modest.



Pre-order <span class="bold">Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders</span>, Hercule Poirot's latest adventure, before the curiously-named murderer strikes again! The 20% pre-order discount will last until the game's expected launch on February 4, 2016.

mechmouse: Just rewatched it and I'm sure this is different. The version I saw was shorter and the only bit where I though I heard Poriot talk was him reading the initial letter from ABC, which was not the same voice as on the trailer I just watched.

Found the Trailer that was originally posted

Yep, Thats about as american as you can get.
Oh, god, you're absolutely right, the voice in that teaser is appalling, not suited for Poirot at all! I'm sure they just used it for the teaser, though, back when they were still looking for proper actors to do the voice overs, as USA Poirot is the only character you hear, whereas in the new trailer you distinctively hear other characters' voices, other than Hercule's.

It would have sucked if they went ahead with that actor from the teaser, though...

That would have lead me to being club to death with my wife's laptop had I bought and installed that version as a surprise for her.

Hearing the new voices has made me more likly to buy.
NO Linux version on GOG... But the game will have Linux version on STEAM....

Something is wrong here... ¬¬
Pre-Order? Nope. Without reading some proper reviews (not from players) I don't give donate money.
Observing the expressions, how they speak...oh, there are so many ways this could go wrong.
And than...I don't like they latest games.
Anyway I would guess that this game gets discounted (or bundled for steam) short time after release.

Yep, there are a few games where the linux client is missing from GoG. I'm curious to why?

Unless its actually windows code being wrapped with some kind of propriety system.
The thing I love about the Sherlock Holmes games is that they are brand new cases (in the ones I played.)

In a way, unfortunately I just read this a few months ago and most of the important details are still in my head so as much as I want this game, I don't see a point getting it anytime soon.

I do hope they make more.
I am not sure when this one comes out but i have checked out the prices and so far GOG game is the best place to purchase both amazon .ca and amazon .com require 39.99 and that is without the taxes and such amazonuk wants 2499 and that is without taxes .of course this is for the boxed version which i cant afford right now . maybe later i need to run out and purchase a new floor mop.
Stoked to play it this evening! Appears like Testament of Sherlock Holmes mixed with a gorgeous cartoon style to me.
