Product Information

Most characters are fully voiced, with the actors doing a fine job adding to the distinctiveness of their roles. Cast members have different accents to suit their nationalities, and while I have no fine ear for such things, they all sounded authentic enough to me. The one exception to being fully voiced is Poirot himself. He does speak many of his lines, but anything chosen from dialog trees or conclusions drawn on the Mind Maps are text-only. This wouldn’t be so bad except that the game is rife with typos and punctuation errors. These are unavoidably distracting because subtitles are always shown when any character talks, despite an option in the game settings that is meant to turn them off; I tried several times and it never worked. It's always Poirot though. He has a pathological need to be wanted and be the centre of attention, so murders someone to enable it. The game’s trademark mindmaps return allowing you to ese Poirot’s famous little grey cells to build challenging mindmaps and then draw the correct links that can solve the case.

Archived from the original on November 12, 2013 . Retrieved April 1, 2014. A script faithful to the Agatha Christie's original material, as you uncover the story and characters of Poirot's youth. This mapping of story details is beautifully suited to the classic detective genre, which is all about a clearly defined mystery and the steady supply of clues and red herrings to the reader. It’s easy to imagine Poirot using this diagrammatic exploration of the plot to sort his ideas and tie up loose ends – or to imagine Agatha Christie doing the same as she writes. It also serves those of us with more modern attention spans than Christie originally wrote for, by summarising what was pertinent in any conversation and adding it to the map. The classic denouement is subverted slightly when you already know what Poirot has worked out, but there’s a user-friendliness in telling the audience once, then telling them what they were told, and the pantomime of fingering the perpetrator is no less fun. Examinations: The player can collect information by examining suspects and paying attention to what they say, how they say it and how they feel.
