Plot

Reception
[edit]Computer Gaming World in 1993 wrote that "though the story was manufactured in the Orient Express Murder Mystery machine, this interactive comic book is novel enough to warrant a serious look ... A multimedia diversion for the whole family".[1]
According to the game's developer, it had disappointing sales, in part because CD-ROM drives were not yet widespread at that time.[2]
