Ten Million downloads for Death on the Nile since April
2007-09-18 16:59:00 A seek-and-find puzzle game based on Agatha Christie's Death on the Nile has been downloaded ten million times since its debut in April.The game was designed by Jane Jensen, author of the Gabriel Knight series and the as-yet-to-be-released Gray Matter. Someone has done for poor Linnet Doyle during her vacation on a cruise down the Nile. It's up to you, as legendary Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, to use your little gray cells to figure out who is innocent and who is a murderer. As with most seek-and-find games, most of your time will be spent hunting for random items in cluttered rooms around the ship. Death on the Nile does it a bit better than most, though, by making some of the items relevant to your investigation, such as the scattered pictures of a torn-up letter, or an initial apparently drawn on the wall in blood. The music's also pretty darn good. It's not the most challenging game you'll ever play, but it's really quite entertaining. Click here to give the demo ...
