We are the developpers of the game. Thank you all for your comment. We cannot give too much details about the adaptation we made of the original story of the book without spoiling the investigation. Yet, there are a few things we can say:
- We didn't want to change too much of the original story, because if you never read the book or watch the movie, it is one of the best investigation ever created, so it would be a pity to distort it for the sake of those who already know the end.
- For the majority who already knows the end of the book, we brought a lot of additional contents. First, the Armstrong Case is briefly mentionned in the book. We turned it into a full investigation made by a new playable character, Joanna Locke. The investigation of Joanna is a big part of the game (around 1/3 of the game). It's a brand new investigation happening in the US, that noone ever read, saw or played. Besides, we also extended the end of the book with an extra investigation following the conclusions in the train. This new investigation is related to the murder in the train, so it's not like a "DLC". It is really integrated in the main story. And you get to travel in new locations outside the train (Venice, Geneva). This is also approximately 1/3 of the gameplay. So, roughly, the investigation of the train is just 1/3 of the game. The other 2/3 is brand new and will bring fresh investigation for everyone.
I hope this clarifies the contents, without saying too much.

Spoiler alert!)

Calling spoilers for the end of an almost 90 year old story? Seriously?

Titanic sunk.

Joking aside, honestly I'd hope it would be the same. Unless one is superbly confident in their writing (due to feedback, not their own inflated ego), I wouldn't want someone to try challenging a legend like Agatha Christie.

Going off the developer post though, they seem to have gotten the right idea - to fill in blanks (scene jumps and time skips) and other areas that were only vaguely mentioned (the Armstrong case).

So I for one am glad they didn't decide to rewrite the story.

The film is from 1974, so anyone who is interested in the subject knows who the murderers are. Only in a computer game should the path be the goal, and therefore the puzzles, which of course do not appear in the book or film.

This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. There are NUMEROUS ways that someone could get this game recommended to them that have nothing to do with knowing Christie or the plot of the story at all. The OP is an absolute prig for spoiling the plot of the game utterly for folks who have a passing interest in "detective games" and are now passing because of this.

. . .honestly surprised the moderators and developer even left it up for so long.
