As of right now (as far as I'm aware) the Agatha Christie adventure games have been cancelled. There will probably be more Agatha Christie casual games, though.

Gosh, so disappointing. I had no idea they had been cancelled. The Agatha Christie games are amongst my favourite ever, and I have played them many times. I like the casual hidden object games too, but there is no comparison really. Sad news.

Never say never! At this point, though, I think it would take another adventure game publisher negotiating with the Agatha Christie estate and hiring developers to do a Miss Marple adventure game.

Considering how superbly "Frogwares" present their Sherlock Holmes games, how good would it be for them to add an Agatha Christie or two to their catalogue ??

I would like to see another developer be able to do some Agatha Christie-Hercule Poirot games-But-only if they'd be better than the previous ones...Also I am not all that crazy about the Frogware games either..i find them(like the AG games)very tedious and they have no real atmosphere. They just seem blah, and flat. That is just my opinion and it could've been the days i tried to get into them were just my 'bad' days. To me the AG and SH games and the Nancy Drew are my biggest disappointments.

Oh, dear I'm sorry you don't enjoy their games, gamenut.
I think they produce top class games myself AND they also listen to their customers [And not too many developers do that !!] So I'm really looking forward to their next release

Well, gosh, not all can be pleased all the time! That's what makes Life interesting! One thing is for sure though--always good stuff here at Gameboomers!
