Wii Remote in Action in the Adventure Company’s Upcoming Game “Agatha Christie – Evil Under the Sun”

Team-up with Hercule Poirot and your Wii Remote to Solve a Mysterious Crime

The Adventure Company today released new screenshots from “Agatha Christie – Evil Under the Sun“ for Wii™. The game explores the possibilities of the intuitive controlling system, to deliver an outstanding gaming experience to Wii gamers everywhere.

Famous detective Hercule Poirot is back in typical style, turning up at just the right time to begin an investigation into the murder of a famous actress during what should have been the start of a relaxing holiday.

Taking on the role of Hercule Poirot, players can scour a stunning tropical island for clues and delve deeper into the mysterious relationships between over 20 unique characters to search out the killer.

Five scenes from the game are shown in which the Wii Remote™ is the key to solving a puzzle. Players will have to move the remote to simulate motions in order to find clues and progress through the game. For instance, a clue buried in the dirt must be uncovered by simulating a digging motion, and a screw is tightened by rotating the Wii Remote like a screwdriver.

Game Features:

Play as world-renowned Belgian detective Hercule Poirot
Over 20 unique characters to interact with, each with their own motives
Cinematic camera perspectives emphasizing character facial emotions
“Shadowing” ability allows Poirot to stealthily follow suspects from a discreet distance
Advanced in-game hint system, including automatic journal recording
Additional storyline appended to that of the original novel providing a new ending

Wii is a trademark of Nintendo.
