Flatfoots and Fools

In this Episode, Andrew and John talk about their favorite entry in the Poirot series so far: Agatha Christie - Murder on the Orient Express. Developed by Microids Lyon, this game takes the classic story, puts it in a modern but throwback setting, and adds the ability to play a past case instead of just hearing it described during the story. We have varied feelings on the parts of the game added past the original story.

In this episode, Andrew and John discuss John’s thoughts on The Case of the Golden Idol Base game, and then our thoughts on the DLC’s. We chat about both the Spider of Lanka and the Lemurian Vampire, as well as a bit of thoughts on Case as a whole. We enjoyed this game, and look forward to playing and discussing Color Gray Games’ projects!

In this episode, Andrew and John talk about the second Darkside Detective game, A Fumble in the Dark. This is a Point And Click Adventure from Spooky Doorway, and is a great sequel to their previous Darkside Detective Game. Sadly, this one is mostly spoilers, but we recommend this for any P&C Adventure fans, and especially if you enjoyed the last one from Spooky Doorway.

Please note this episode was recorded long before The Seance of Blake Manor released or had a public demo.
Also, we have since fixed the audio issue with John’s mic.

Main case spoilers are between 5:32 and 38:20

In this episode, Andrew and John discuss 2023’s Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot: The London Case. This is the sequel to The First Cases, and also Murder Mystery Machine. It's a detective adventure with a deduction web system. This game sits in a weird place for both of us, with lots that we didn't love.
