Agatha Christie — The ABC Murders Behind-the-Scenes Video  – November 25, 2015

For whom is The ABC Murders being made, anyway? Well, let’s see…

If you can hold a mouse or joypad, you can become Hercule Poirot.

If you’re either a hardcore or casual adventure game fan, you’ll enjoy The ABC Murders. This holds true for both beginners and seasoned players.

If you’ve read the novel, no problem. The game will still challenge you, and even offers an alternate ending to the original story.

If you get stuck, the game will assist you with context-sensitive help. If you’ve tried everything and are still unable to get anywhere, the next step can be automatically triggered.

If you’re really sharp, you’ll accumulate ego points to prove how smart you are.

Here is the story’s starting point, in a nutshell:

A mysterious letter from a certain “A.B.C.” is sent to Hercule Poirot, the famous Belgian detective, announcing a murder which is about to be committed. Even more worrying is the disconcerting confidence of the serial killer, who does not hesitate to mock the police force and question Hercule Poirot’s intelligence! The chase will lead the player around England for a complex investigation in which it will be necessary to be observant, quick-witted and level-headed.
 
 Look for The ABC Murders on PS4, Xbox One, PC/Windows and Mac in February 2016.
