I loved this game.

I want to find more games like this - can anyone recommend any for me? I already played the murder on the orient express one too.

thanks

A bit late in responding, but 4:50 from Paddington is to be released either this week or next. I think it's by the same group that did And Then There Were None and Murder On The Orient Express, so hopefully it'll be just as good.

It's tough to find good adventure games these days as there are more misses than hits. There are a few mystery games that I still love though. Post Mortem (2003) isn't bad and is quite atmospheric. Still Life (2005) was a great adventure that had a couple of faults but was really quite thrilling at certain points. It also and a sequel that I've been meaning to play.

There's also Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened, which is a really creepy but well done first person adventure game that mixes Sherlock Holmes with HP Lovecraft's horror creations. And there's also Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack The Ripper and Sherlock Holmes Vs Arséne Lupin (also called Sherlock Holmes: Nemisis), that aren't too bad, but there's a lot of backtracking in it, which is annoying.

Also, you can check out the Adventure Company (not to be confused with the holiday company). They market all sorts of independent adventure games and some of the ones I mentioned above.

Not too late for a response at all. I have the whole summer to game - making up for a mammoth year of college!!

"Jack the Ripper" game is fairly good too. You play a reporter. Should be able to pick it up for cheap enough. The Nancy Drew games are good enough too, though may be slightly easy for you, but some good puzzles in them
