Agatha Christie - The ABC Murders (Video Game Review)


Adapting any kind of famous mystery into a video game is trying at the best of times.

Following one of the more famous novels, the story sees the Belgian detective combating a bizarre case of murders directed at him. Challenging letters repeatedly arrive through the post, mocking his abilities and leaving ABC railway guides with each victim.
