### 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.

### 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.

### 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.

### 2/5 — Don’t spend your money!

*2022-09-14, version 1.0*

I’ve been playing this game for awhile and’s I like it very much. However, I have spent 99 cents for 5 clues and have received 0 of the 15 clues I’ve purchased. There’s a restore purchases button but when I press it, nothing happens. Should of went to google for my hints instead!

### 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!!!

### 1/5 — No sound

*2022-11-10, version 1.0*

I have tried downloading the app multiple times and the sound is not working. Have tried contacting the developer and no support. Waste of $7.

### 1/5 — Too complicated and expensive.Refund please

*2022-10-07, version 1.0*

Puzzles way too complicated.Clues outrageously priced.
So sorry I bought game would like a refund

### 1/5 — Buggy - good game art and design, but feels like a bit of a a scam

*2021-09-02, version 1.0*

Game is interesting, and I enjoy the plot and art/game design - but a lot of bugs are present. I could not move some of the implements required to solve a puzzle (eg. - could not move clock handles required to be set to a certain time to solve a puzzle). I thought I found a workaround - by using the clues functions - which could move things around when the game would not let me. At a certain point, the game ran out of clues - and asked me to pay for more (keep in mind - I was only using clues to work around bugs with the game functionality). This feels like a bit of a scam - and maybe they are not fixing bugs as fast as they can - so they can make more money on selling clues. I would not have purchased this game, if I knew about these issues earlier - or that they were trying to further monetize the game by charging for clues. I recommend not to buy this game and encourage this type of behaviour.

### 1/5 — Serious problems with hot spots

*2019-12-22, version 1.0*

The developer needs to fix hot spots to make them small screen friendly. It is firstly ridiculously difficult to move things like the sliding flower or clock hands, or the hand icon next to inventory items. Developers PLEASE learn how to program games properly so hot spots can actually be located on small screens!!!!! The hot spots have to be more than a few pixels for heavens sake.  It’s taking dozens of tries to hit the right one. Worse they sometimes simply stop responding at all, and I have to quit the game and restart it to get back full functionality. Very frustrating and sloppy. This is a problem in general with many iOS ports, but never before as bad as this!

### 1/5 — Don’t Buy This Game.

*2019-06-20, version 1.0*

This game is slow and clunky. They have also changed parts of the story. I might have expected this level of technology 20 years ago, but this is a joke.

### 1/5 — No merece la pena

*2019-02-21, version 1.0*

No tiene ninguna “gracia”. Muy previsible y no presenta ningún reto. No lo recomiendo

### 1/5 — Stealing my cash

*2018-12-22, version 1.0*

I’ve paid three times for more hints, they’ve taken my money, but I haven’t been given any additional hints.

### 1/5 — Usual Microids failure

*2018-07-24, version 1.0*

Why, oh why do I continue to risk Microid games? The actual games they publish are great but this one, like almost all of those I’ve bought has now frozen me out. Conned me out of buying clues which don’t show up (£5 out of pocket).
From experience I wouldn’t recommend any of their games until they get them ready before asking people to pay for them

### 1/5 — Decepciona

*2018-05-30, version 1.0*

La idea no es mala, pero se ha hecho muy mal. Completamente lineal, sin pizca de originalidad y encima se atasca.
Lamento la compra

*2025-06-09, version 1.0*

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

### 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.

### 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

### 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 🥰

### 5/5 — Great Adventure Game

*2023-05-13, version 1.0*

I’m a massive fan of Agatha Christie books and Poirot is one of my favourite characters from her books. This game translates very well from the actual book and Poirot as the detective and his strange ways of solving mysteries. 

I love it and if you’re a fan like me, please give it a go,  you’ll love it.

### 5/5 — Jogo incrível!

*2022-11-10, version 1.0*

Gráfico muito bom, enigmas inteligentes, diálogos bons e curtos… amei! Vale muito a pena comprar.

### 5/5 — Hercule Poirot is at it again

*2022-05-07, version 1.0*

I absolutely loved this game. I love the “little gray cells” and how the powerful mind of the great Hercule Poirot works. I really enjoyed everything about it and the play time was pretty long. I was actually sad when it had ended. I’m definitely going to replay this game in the future. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys Agatha Christie and H. Poirot. It’s a fun mystery game and you never know which way things are going to go. Just when you think you may know who the culprit is, the story changes and you’re oh so wrong. It’s fun. Hope everyone who tries this little gem enjoys it as much as I did. Give it a shot. I’m hoping the newest pitot game makes it to IOS and Android!

### 5/5 — Excellent game

*2021-12-14, version 1.0*

So pleased I bought this games. It’s like a cross between the Room and the Sherlock Holmes games. The story is plenty long enough at the price point and stays true to the original story. There are a few things that aren’t perfect, some character accents are off and the touch interaction with the puzzles can be tricky.  But still the game is great.
