The story sounds ridiculous, but then again i've never been into crime thrillers anyway.

I used to play the board version of this game as a kid, was quite fun. Take a look at the screenshots, doesn't look like a bad game (if you like adventure games, of course).

Looks worth a try.
Reloaded has really been tearing up the scene lately. Releasing stuff left and right. Nice work on their part.

When I first read it it was called Ten Little Indians. so pretty much the same thing.

it was called 10 Little Niggers because it was an old song about black children and it would count down through them (like 10 green bottles) and at the end of the song it would say : "And Then There Were None "
In this case it is not black kids falling out of bed it is people being picked off 1 by 1 until there are none left alive.

Is this turning in to a pointless discussion or WHAT! and yes it is called that in Swedish (beeing Swedish I know) but still that word in Swedish is sort of frowned upon...eaven "there are no black people live there so noone can complain" which is total gobbledegook "BS!" nuff said.

heres the full song/poem
Ten Little Nigger Boys went out to dine;
One choked his little self, and then there were Nine.
Nine Little Nigger Boys sat up very late;
One overslept himself, and then there were Eight.
Eight Little Nigger Boys traveling in Devon;
One said he'd stay there, and then there were Seven.
Seven Little Nigger Boys chopping up sticks;
One chopped himself in halves, and then there were Six.
Six Little Nigger Boys playing with a hive;
A Bumble-Bee stung one, and then there were Five.
Five Little Nigger Boys going in for Law;
One got in Chancery, and then there were Four.
Four Little Nigger Boys going out to Sea;
A Red Herring swallowed one, and then there were Three.
Three Little Nigger Boys walking in the Zoo;
The big Bear hugged one, and then there were Two;
Two Little Nigger Boys sitting in the Sun;
One got frizzled up, and then there was One.
One Little Nigger Boy living all alone;
He got married, and then there were None.
I played a quick burst of the game, it is a traditional Point and Click. Its not great but its not terrible either, but prepare yourself for some bad "queens english" accents.

I dont know about Swedish but thats how things are in my country. When people here say "nigger" they MEAN "black" and they dont even know it is an insult. Some people know, but most people dont.
So its not BS.

of course its racist in todays world but when the name was thought up it wasnt seen as such. same as golliwog jam, among other things which were considered normal back in the day when black people were slaves.
of course it is wrong but it was no more wrong than the spanish inquisiton, nazi germany etc etc.
no point to this balbbing expect to ask are the gfx crap on this game? mini-review please.

Where are you from, sugar cane contry down at the Luisiana Texas border or?
Cant we just stop this, the offical titel for this game is "And Then There Were None "
Dont realy matter what kind of rasist slurs you guys grow up with, its comon sense that we dont call colored folks the "N word" anymore...might have done as late as back in the early 60s ...and still probably are in some less intelectual parts of the population. But question is, is this game any good, does it capture the A.Christie mystery feeling from the books or is it just another slow paced klick and walk for hours game.

I played about 10 minutes into the game, and have a few things to note about it.
-The pre-rendered backgrounds are rather nice (except outside the mansion).
-Better turn on anti-aliasing when playing, or the edges on the models will look horrible.
-The models look kind of mediocre in quality.
-The animations are horrible (speech animations are not synched at all, people just move their mouths open and shut).
-The voice acting is not exactly top notch either.
I cannot understand why this game has Directx9 with it. There is absolutely no reason to have it included, as you could easily run this game on a 3-5 year old computer.
That being said, if you are an adventure game fan or fan of Agatha Christie or this story in particular, I am pretty sure that you will like this game.

They have changed the ending
however that being said it was still alot of fun to play, and made living on this sinday with a handover more enjoyable.
