Thanks, Ana: It is a huge download, but at $6.99, who can resist! And, it certainly appears to be the original game, not some hidden object knock-off.

Seriously considering. Lots of good reviews. I'd like to know if this game has 360 deg. views. In other words, do you have to look up down and all around? I hate that in an adventure game.
Note: I didn't like the "Agatha Christie: Murder on the Orient Express" game because of the constant moving back and forth and the limited environments.

Sparkle -- It's been years, but I don't remember 360 degree views. However, you will encounter constant moving back and forth and limited environments -- nearly the entire game takes place on the train. The pros -- it's a beautiful game, the story is great, it's well written and exceptionally well voiced, everything is historically accurate, it has a well-thought-out ending, and it's innovative. The cons -- it takes places in real time so you can't see everything unless you play it more than once, it has some timed challenges (though there is, as far as I know, I way to skip them if necessary), and the save game feature is rather odd.

I have the original boxed game on my shelf. It was by Broderbund and was for Windows 95, PowerMac and DOS. A marvellous game of its time!

Thanks, Becky. Doesn't sound like this one's for me. But glad that those who are interested can get the game for such a good price.
