All Aboard the Orient Express: A New Adventure Game Awaits
- 5/15/2023
Murder on the Orient Express, Agatha Christie's timeless masterpiece, is getting a fresh spin as a video game adaptation, courtesy of French publisher Microids. This intriguing but familiar tale will hit the game market later this year, offering players an immersive experience while trying to solve one of history's most infamous fictional murders.
Microids has taken the challenge of adapting a widely known mystery story and promises to deliver a "faithful but augmented" retelling. Players will assume the role of the legendary detective Hercule Poirot, piecing together clues to solve the mysterious murder on the luxurious train. Embracing a new approach to the classic story, the game will be set in 2023 and introduce a new character, Joanna Locke, who will accompany Poirot throughout the investigation.
The gameplay will allow players to explore the luxurious train environment and delve into Poirot's thoughts through mind maps and deductions. In addition, the introduction of playable flashbacks will enable players to venture outside the train, exploring new areas and uncovering vital clues. Microids promises a variety of environmental puzzles, object manipulations, and immersive crime-solving mechanics to keep players enthralled.
In conclusion, Murder on the Orient Express: The Adventure Game is gearing up to launch in the last quarter of this year, letting gamers experience a new twist on a beloved classic. With an artful, creative direction, an engaging narrative, and innovative gameplay mechanics, Microids aims to breathe new life into the world of detective games.
