Differences from the novel

The game retains the main plot from the novel, The A.B.C. Murders, and also the murderer's identity. However, there are some changes, like the number of victims, which are now only three, as the fourth planned victim, (here a man called Dick Dunbar, owner of the Black Swan hotel) is saved by Poirot. In the game, all victims are related, as Alice Archer and Betty Bernard (together with Cust and Dunbar) are former patients of Sir Carmichael Clarke (who is a doctor in the game). The finding of the burnt patient files by Poirot at Combeside, and the recovery of these files, allows Poirot to discover the next victim's identity and prevent the murder (this clue also gives players a strong hint about who the real murderer is, even it's not necessary to know it to finish the game). There are two endings in the game, depending on whether Poirot loads his gun with real bullets or blanks, before handing it to Hastings just prior to the final meeting.

Reception

The game was met with a mixed reception.
