Based on the novel of the same name, Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express brings players into the mystery as an Orient Express employee named Antoinette. During the train ride, a murder occurs and then an avalanche blocks the train's path - leaving it immobile in the middle of Europe. Antoinette's mission to solve the crime is aided by the legendary detective, Hercule Poirot, who although is injured and bed-ridden throughout the game, can still offer hints and tips to stumped players.

David Suchet, an actor who portrays Poirot in the A&E television series, lends his voice to the game as the dedicated detective. Gamers navigate Antoinette through three different environments: the train, the area around the avalanche, and a train station in Istanbul. Players must interact with over 20 different characters and collect clues that help the protagonist solve the crime.If you've heard of at least one of Agatha Christie's Poirot novels, chances are it'll be Murder on the Orient Express. Makes sense, then, that The Adventure Company decided to choose this title as the next installment in their ongoing Poirot game adaptations. With such a popular story, and thus a wealth of content possibilities for the game, you'd think that the final product would be genuinely entertaining, but unfortunately what's been churned out will be hard-pressed to satisfy even the series' most die-hard fans.Murder on the Orient Express plays like a generic point and click adventure, with mouse clicks dictating the movements of the main character, Antoinette Marceau, who happens to be a rather upper-class female member of the train company that runs the Orient Express in this case.
Yes, it's unfortunate that no direct control of Poirot himself has been implemented, something sure to cause at least some disappointment to fans expecting to step right into the shoes of the little Belgian chap.However, there is some method to the developer's madness, as this particular sidestep from the novel's narrative allows for a greater believability of the game's events, with the player's learning curve being reflected in the similarly amateurish actions of Antoinette herself. Even so, there's still plenty of interaction with Poirot, who acts as your guide and mentor throughout the investigation. David Suchet lends his voice talent to the character and does an excellent job of it too, accurately recreating his loveable twisting of the English language and his fascination with the 'little grey cells'.Surprisingly, the rest of the cast do a satisfactory job too, with the majority of the spoken dialogue sounding fairly natural and unforced, save perhaps for some of Miss Marceau's crazy accentuations.Voice acting aside though, it soon becomes apparent that the game has one major problem - it's all set on one train.
Yes, the developers obviously tried to get around this sad fact by adding a few little side-areas, such as the starting marketplace and another train station, as well as a snow-covered mountainside, but these only take up a relatively short amount of playtime. When it comes down to it, you're stuck on a (admittedly very opulent) train for several hours with a varied group of equally weird people, such as a governess working in Baghdad and a British army officer returning from India.

Now, perhaps in real life, on a real train journey, talking to such an eclectic bunch would be an interesting way to pass the time, but games are meant to provide fun and enjoyment first and foremost, and speaking to fake people on a fake train is nothing more than a vocal chore.
