Added on: 1 August 2005 Website: (none) Content advisory: None  None  Rare, mild Ratings: AGS Panel: (what is this?) Player rating: 60% A sequel to the Laura Bow series from Sierra. This is my first AGS game. It's really short, but I did put a lot of work into the interface to try to emulate the notebook from The Dagger of Amon Ra. I also tried out using an overhead view, which is something I hadn't seen before in an AGS game. Download Now (if the download doesn't work, try Right Click, Save Target As)

Posted by uvaagsfan on 2007-10-27 at 20:17 (IP logged): Well thought out and fun game. Posted by madmanmunt on 2005-09-03 at 12:37 (IP logged): I never played any of the original Laura Bow games but it didn't effect my enjoyment of this mini-murder mystery. Set entirely on a bus and observed from an overhead point of view, this fun little game casts you as Laura Bow, a reporter who is trying to solve a murder. It's all over very quickly and its not very difficult but there's some nice ideas and basic but enjoyable characters. I had fun for the 5 minutes or so the game lasted. I'd like to see more of these made. Posted by Jane on 2005-08-01 at 10:43 (IP logged): A nice game with not too hard puzzles Posted by sebastian on 2005-08-01 at 07:34 (IP logged): Hi there! Really like this game so far! Interesting interface! But I seem to be stuck after I've taken the golden earing from Greta's purse! What should I do with it? How should I look in the old lady's bag? Liked the Agatha Christie atmosphere!
