### 5/5 — Really good game!

*2025-10-25, version 1.0*

Really like these adventure mystery genre and Agatha Christy ABC Murders is really good!

### 4/5 — Un loupé dans l’historique

*2025-10-01, version 1.0*

Bon jeu mais quand je suis allée consulter l’historique (comme conseillé dans les intermèdes entre les scènes du jeu) j’ai appris le nom du tueur avant d’avoir terminé l’histoire. Un peu dommage même si je connaissais déjà le roman. 
Sinon le jeu est assez fidèle à l’ambiance d’Agatha Christie, on se laissé prendre par le narratif.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-06-09, version 1.0*

Superb graphics, great functionality, very refined , what a story , this is better then a movie. A++ game

### 3/5 — A little Buggy do not purchase clues

*2025-03-17, version 1.0*

I purchased clues but never received them The game lags and is buggy.

### 5/5 — Absolutely love this

*2024-12-14, version 1.0*

Was looking for such a story driven game for so long. It's also not very demanding which is perfectly suited for casual players like me. Congratulations to the developers.

### 4/5 — Einfach

*2024-10-04*

Ansprechende Grafik und gut aufgebaut. Mir persönlich war es etwas zu dialoglastig und die Rätsel zu einfach.
Trotzdem empfehlenswert, sehr unterhaltsam.

### 5/5 — sooo nice, more more please

*2024-09-14*

please make more of this.
I purchased few of your apps.
Microid is amazing could create apps like this many years ago, unlike other Developer, the graphics are not as good and huge to download, while Microid is excellent!! 
Thank you so much

### 1/5 — Ho pagato e nn ricevuto le piste

*2023-12-26, version 1.0*

Ho  pagato 3 euro per avere 25 piste (aiuto) e nn ho ricevuto le piste!!!

### 5/5 — Super

*2023-10-10*

Schönes Krimi-Spiel buchgetreu umgesetzt und vereint unterschiedliche, abwechslungsreiche Spieltechniken. Als Detektiv Poirot sammelt man Fakten und kombiniert diese, um Fragen zu beantworten - bis zur letzten: Wer ist der Mörder? 
Es sind ein paar Puzzle ähnlich Escape Room eingebaut. Man kann sie mit Erfahrung und Nachdenken und Probieren ohne gekaufte Tipps lösen. Es gibt aber auch Gratis-Tipps (habe 1 genutzt).
Point&Click Steuerung. Wichtig: auch in die Ecken von Räumen bzw. außerhalb des sichtbaren Bildes gehen.

Kleine Mankos:
Das Ansehen von Personen, um sie zu studieren und Erkenntnisse zu gewinnen, hat eine ungewöhnliche Steuerung, die mir nicht intuitiv bzw. nicht präzise genug scheint. Und die Text-Ausgabe der Erkenntnisse überlappt häufig und lässt sich somit nicht lesen.
Komplett vertont in Englisch, aber in einem kurzen Abschnitt fehlt Poirots Stimme. 
Beim Vergleichen der Schreibmaschinenbuchstaben ist nicht intuitiv von einem Brief zum Anderen zu wechseln, wenn man beide nebeneinander liegen hat. Außerdem wird es beim dritten Mal langweilig exakt dasselbe zu tun.

### 5/5 — J’adore 🥰

*2023-07-25, version 1.0*

J’ai été agréablement surprise de pouvoir jouer dans ma langue maternelle! Je comprends l’anglais sans problèmes mais j’apprécie vraiment cet ajout. Merci 🥰
