15. CONCLUSION
======================================================================
And so, and then there were none.
I first read an Agatha Christie book when I was ten. I remember it was
Murder on the Orient Express, starring the wonderful Hercule Poirot.
Before long, I've completed the entire series consisting Poirot. I
ventured into reading stories involving Jane Marple, and then I came
across And Then There Were None. Despite the rather bizarre setting
and ending, it struck to me as completely believable. Perhaps I was
gullible, but the book continues to rank among the top three Christie
books in my collection.
It was for this reason that I played this game, which was, well, not
exactly engaging. At times, it feel like Trace Memory all over again,
albeit with much lesser puzzles to solve. Still, I enjoyed playing it,
if only as a tribute to the author. I hope to see more Christie books
get adapted into adventure games in future, since it's a genre that I
particularly enjoy. Murder on the Orient Express, for example, would
be a perfect title to turn into a game.
And for that game, let's hope that it's a little more difficult than
this one.
Till then, goodbye.
