This one is a leisurely and enjoyable journey, one to take if you just want to relax and don't want to tax your own little grey cells too severely. It's particularly good for new adventurers.

This would be a very good game, but it suffers from a fatal syndrome: it will inevitably be compared to the original source material. If you can see it as a game independent of the book, then it deserves your attention and money for sure; but unfortunately the Old Lady’s books rock and dominate any comparison be it game, film or theatre.

Overall, Agatha Christie: Evil under the Sun is definitely an improvement over the previous title in the series, albeit a slight one. The graphics and some gameplay aspects still could be improved upon quite a bit.

Despite these problems, Agatha Christie: Evil Under the Sun is still a solid title that adventure fans will love. It has an excellent story with some solid mysteries and a terrific presentation to top it all off.

Considered solely as an adventure game, Evil Under the Sun is a slightly above-average mystery game. The characters are interesting, the dialogue engaging, and the puzzles are fun. However, when considered as a homage to Agatha Christie, it leaves much to be desired. Graphics: 8.0 The graphics are very nice and are evocative of the era.

I was a little disappointed with the pacing of the game and I also wish that the original novel was included, like the previous Agatha Christie games. I generally like to read the book first and then see how the game follows the story, if it does at all.
