Agatha Christie: And Then There Were None

The Good
Very well conversion of the Novel into a great game. The Game keeps a tight grip on the player right from the beginning and it remains intact till the end.

The Sound Track is also awesome and arranges as per the game environment. The Graphics are also very nicely created. The Mansion and the surrounding as well as the side quests also makes this game real treat for the player.

The game Engine and the Graphics are also very well integrated with each other enabling the player to enjoy every moment of the game.

The Bad
Well, there is nothing much I didn't like about the game but the dialogue system could be much better giving the player chance to skip the sentences avoiding hearing the repeated narrations.

The Bottom Line
It's a very good game and a sure delight for Christie Fans. It's the same great story about 10 Strangers each is having a deep dark past which they wants to hide from everyone, but it is been revealed.

The game provides dark and creepy atmosphere and tense situations. If you have read the book or have seen the movie no matter because it provides different endings with great twists.

A sure delight for Suspense & Mystery Adventurers.

The Good
I love the fact that the game followed the book. You could change the ending by either omitting saving someone or deciding to save them. The puzzles and things to do when investigating were fun and you had more than just one area to search. The weather scenes were very realistic and it did seem to draw you into the mystery. Interaction with each character was necessary and gave great detail and information to help solve the mystery.

The Bad
There was no way to speed through the conversations. Usually you simply hit the space key or enter. At times the conversations seemed to take forever. There are some things you can do in the game that are not necessary to win. However, if not done in the correct order you do not have the ability to do them if you decide you wanted to. Most of the time you cannot continue on unless you do everything exactly right.

The Bottom Line
It's a bit complex but enjoyable. The dark scenery and the mystery is enough to keep you captivated. Graphics, music, and the personalities of the characters draw you in easily. At the end of the game they give you the actual ending of the book and the reasons behind it.

The Good
The atmosphere was palpable, even with the early 2000s graphics. The cast of characters, dialogue, story and music were all perfect for the tone of the game. It will not spoil the original Agatha Christie mystery if you don't want it to.

The Bad
There's only one puzzle that made me pull my hair and eventually look up a guide.

The Bottom Line
It was surprising to catch a classic such as this one while going through random abandonware games.
