The Good
- Two storylines, so if you’ve read the book, you can still be surprised by the ending
- fans of Agatha Christie may enjoy the “hidden” facts about the author.
The Bad
- Tedious math problems and riddles comprise most of the gameplay
- wonky game logic and save system may force you to replay whole sections
- no exploration, clue finding, or deduction to speak of.
Our Verdict
Awful
Offers a tiny glimpse of what might have been, but manages to execute just about everything wrong.
Die-hard Agatha Christie fans and those who enjoy doing math for fun might find The A.B.C. Murders tolerable. Everyone else probably won’t.
