If you like mysteries, this is a well-done game
I am an Agatha Christie mystery fan, and they did a good job with this game. There are parts that are a little annoying at first, like the time it takes to walk all over, but when you figure out where everything is, and you can figure out what is going on so you know where you need to go, then that part isn't a problem anymore. It is a point and click game, but it is a mystery game- not a action game- so it works well. I have other games for action. The characters and voices are done very well, very consistent with the books. If you like Agatha Christie, you will like this game. I'm hope they make more A.C. books into Wii games. I can't compare this game with similar titles, as I haven't played 'And then they were none', or the nancy drew game because of poor reviews, but if they don't come out with another one of these soon, I might have to try those out too.

All work and no fun, makes this a dull game
Evil under the Sun (wii) is a typical point and click game. So if you dont like point and click games, avoid this one like the plague. I find this game absolutely boring and irritating. If you consider going from one end of an island to the other end and back again, then back again, and so on and so forth adventurous, then you must have a pretty lame life. The story is OK, but it is not at all gripping, its all work. There are not enough clues to really play on, at least common sense ones, and You spend most of the time traveling from one end of the island to the other trying to find one person to speak with in order to progress. Or in some instances if you just fail to pick up an item that is barely seen to the naked eye, you will find yourself just pointlessly running back and forth trying to figure out what you missed so you can progress. It was impossible for me to beat without looking at a walk through at times. Why did I give it 2 stars? I am merciful.

Better than I thought it would be
This is the second game I have bought for the Wii. This game is awesome!!! It is pretty realistic and you have many choices of how to proceed, just like the PC game "And Then There Were None", and nothing like Murder on the Nile(lame). You use the controller to turn and twist things. I was very impressed. I can't wait for the next Agatha Christie mystery to be made!!!!
