To this adventure gamer the Agatha cHristie series continues to offer great value with the third installment. In an age where out of 5 adventure games 4 have horrible finale, puzzle design or pathfinding this is a breath of fresh air. I would recommend all three games. EUTS has a believable story, a tense development with an indpending sense of doom and a crime that happens half way through the game. Good graphics and decent acting complete the experience. Give us more!
My favorite so far... August 16, 2008

First off, let me say that I had absolutely no technical issues with this game. It ran flawlessly. Second of all, I loved it. Out of the three Agatha Christie games that I've played, this one was my favorite. The scenery was great, and there was a lot to explore. There were many character interactions as well. I almost thought twice about getting it because of the somewhat negative reviews on this site, but I am glad that I did anyway. Lots of fun!

I have played other games in the Agatha Christie line and this one was hard to play. I would like to have known a little more about the way to move about in the game and how to find clues without constant going back and forth and running into dead ends. I guess I like the hidden objects format of Death on the Nile and Peril at End House.
not a good game July 21, 2008

I am a point and click gamer and I love Agatha Christie unfortunately this game doesn't provide much enjoyment.
The plot is there, the graphics are OK and if you love clicking over the place in many areas to find what Poirot is supposed to do next then fine. But if you are looking for a good mix of plot with some puzzles thrown in to break the tedium then you are in for a disappointment.
There are only 2 puzzles - one piece together a letter and once a puzzle box. the rest is all find the items and use them but that doesn't really rescue the game as there is so much dialogue. If you haven't read the book and wish it to be like a more interactive book then this game might be for you but for gamers looking for some puzzles etc then keep on looking.
You don't even get the book with this game. the 1st game in the series was the best (and then there were none) the second one is more like this game, long dialogue so if you liked that one you might like this one.
