Did you get the happy ending?

I hope there will be allot more of them!
If you're into murder mysteries, you might want to try this game : http://www.justadventure.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1133278972 It might not be graphically good as Agatha Christie but its theme really fits Agatha Christie's novels and it's very replayable!

Status : Offline | You really should finish it Helen. It wasn't too bad. Lots to do. I just didn't like having to walk around so much to different locations just to see what had changed in order to advance the story.

Status : Online | I liked it too, although I didn't like the fact that a lot of the puzzles were completely "optional". I understand what they were trying to do, but all you have to do is perform tasks in an unlucky order and you can miss huge portions of the game.
I also like the inventory setup, as well as the combining/dissecting tool, which is like Voyage or Mysterious Island, but without the unwieldly amount of stuff in my inventory.
It also was a little too easy to my liking, but then again all the puzzles make sense, and it must be difficult to make inventory puzzles that are both intuitive and difficult.

Status : Online | I liked it, but because the game tried to be non-linear I missed a lot of the puzzles as well (looking at a walkthrough, it turns out there's not much of a reward for the optional puzzles :-/ ).
There were a couple of unfair puzzles, one of them a really horrible pixel hunt that there's no clue as to where to find what you're looking for, and only if you thought backwards you'd be able to find it.
Also, because there aren't many mandatory puzzles, the first four chapters went by really fast, because all I had to do was talk to everyone, and look at everything - one part of the game simply requires you to go through all the rooms to see that everyone is present before it ends. No puzzles, no collecing new evidence, nothing. Something that was annoying, even as the game progressed, there was nothing new to look at apart from the bodies, and those were all searched, it made things alot more boring.
Having four endings was nice, and even the worst ending has a bit of a bonus so you don't feel so bad (you see a certain character).
I liked the 'treat' at the end, a very good idea.

Status : Online | Really liked the game - at first. Half way through, started using a walkthrough just to get it over with and I still haven't bothered to finish it. I don't like optional puzzles - I paid to play and I don't want to miss things. Hate walking around so much with out a clear idea of why I am going some where.
