The Good
- Engaging banter between the two protagonists
- compelling intrigue among the human passengers
- body hacking is a novel way to conduct an investigation
- decent variety of mini-games.
The Bad
- Alien narrative dominating the entire second half is uninteresting
- mini-games that repeat often overstay their welcome
- train car maze
- no story resolution.
Our Verdict
Uneven
A near-equal balance of good and bad that can make a game either fall disappointingly short of its evident potential or be mildly entertaining despite its many failings.
Adventures of Isabelle Fine: Murder on Rails provides a fresh take on the detective investigation but gets sidetracked by overly repetitive puzzle sequences and an extraterrestrial storyline that’s not as stimulating as its human subplots.
