    Product Description
    Former Grand Inquisitor Leonardo and his assistant Bruno are sent by the Vatican to the isolated abbey to investigate the strange goings-on surrounding a carefully guarded secret. Yet hardly have they arrived when their quest is overshadowed by an attempt on their lives...

    Murder in the Abbey is a mystery of cinematic proportions whose suspense goes far beyond that of a conventional adventure game!

    I hate this game--not because of the gameplay, which I was unable to experience, but because the piece of junk WOULD NOT PLAY AT ALL on my fairly new computer, and emails that I sent to the company which produced it were never even acknowledged. I even took it back to exchange it for another, but had the same (non)results. What a waste of time and money; I will never buy a game from this company again.


    3 out of 5 stars pretty fun, better that alot of other games out there   November 18, 2008

    what can i say that hasn't already be said, long install, too much dialogue, cartoony graphics, nice story and voice acting, i knew nothing about this game going in and was pleasently surprised at the get-go. Those of you that ahve given this game a "bad" review just has too high expecttations - kinda like i did with runaway 2 - what a disappointment that was. this game is different than many adventure games - more of a interactive cartoon story. so if you think you'd like that- get this game, if not avoid.

    Good graphics and storyline. A little bit much on the dialog but still an interesting and fun play.

    OK graphics. You have to talk a lot with the characters;pretty time consuming when doing that.

    Feels like old school with this adventure game, had a blast, not to difficult but did require lateral thinking!!
