Nintendo Wii Review: Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None - Page 2

The voice acting, complete with “matter of fact” commentary on each current situation, is good while the excellent music score really enhances the game, which has a classic style that requires patience and problem solving. Players can choose the subtitle text option for the character dialogue for assistance.

The game could use some more visual polish such as bigger icons, more detailed face movements (not mention better lip synching) and, most of all, a smoother environment layout. The multiple endings provides some replay value while possibly enticing players who have the PC version, originally released in 2005, to try this one out. Players could potentially see more future Wii titles as well. The engaging puzzles and exploration/sleuthing should keep most adventure fans happy; just don’t try to complete this game in one day.

Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None is rated T (Teen) by the ESRB for Mild Violence. This game can also be found on: PC.

    I am enjoying this game however I am now befuddled - I have got to a bit where I am sure I need to scoop out flour from the larder but when I click the scoop and then click it onto the flour a picture of the scoop and the flour appears and nothing else. This is very confusing and annoying and I dont know whther it is a big in the game or if I am missing something - which I suspect is a major flaw in the game design leaving a player that confused.

    to scoop out the flour you have to move the wii remote like you're actually scooping out the flour. do this when the screen appears still with the picture of the scoop by the bucket of flour. After 2 scoops, you will find batteries hidden in the flour.

    To scoop the flour you must hold 'A" and make a swift scooping motion from right to left.

    Still can't get the flour. I pull it from my inventory and the press A when the see the cog over ther flour. It then shows me a scoop and the only time something happens is when I press B and it puts it back into my inventory. I have tried to hold down A and move as though I'm scooping and nothing is happening...it just hovers over the flour...aaauuugghhh
