In 2023, Microids Studio Lyon's first project, Agatha Christie - Murder on the Orient Express, made its mark with its modern reinterpretation of the literary classic. The adaptation surprised gamers by enriching the original story while remaining true to its essence.

With Agatha Christie - Death On The Nile, Microids Studio Lyon is exploring a new direction by adding all-new plots, advanced gameplay mechanics and a unique setting: Egypt in the 1970s.

In Death On The Nile, a peaceful cruise on the Nile is disrupted by a terrible crime. Thankfully, Hercule Poirot is onboard.

This modern adaptation of the Queen of Crime’s classic novel introduces a fresh narrative twist with two playable protagonists: the legendary Hercule Poirot and a brand-new character created for the game, detective Jane Royce.

Players will alternate between the two characters, each offering a unique perspective on the unfolding investigation. Poirot’s razor-sharp logic combined with Royce’s intuition brings depth to the gameplay, as players cross-reference testimonies, interrogate suspects, and piece together every clue to uncover the truth.

The two investigations collide at Abu Simbel. The dynamic duo will solve a complex case full of twists and turns. But the story doesn’t end with the book and still holds many mysteries and twists, even for Agatha Christie fans.
