About the Game

Emerging from the creative powerhouse of BAFTA Award-Winning studio Blazing Griffin, 2023 brings an exciting new chapter as the legendary detective Hercule Poirot ventures to London on what appears to be a straightforward assignment — overseeing the delivery of a painting destined for a prestigious exhibition — only to find the artwork snatched away during its grand unveiling.

Breaking new ground in the series, players can now partner with Hastings, Poirot's cherished companion from the original books, as together they unravel a captivating new mystery. Step into an unfamiliar setting, forge a new partnership, and embark on a thrilling new chapter in the story of a younger Hercule Poirot.

Stepping into the shoes of the iconic detective Hercule Poirot, you'll collaborate with Lloyd's of London to oversee the secure transport, safeguarding, and sale of a prized painting depicting Mary Magdalene. The masterpiece is set to serve as the crown jewel of a new London Museum exhibition, alongside other sacred ecclesiastical artworks on loan from Brussels.

Working as a representative of Lloyd's of London, your trusted associate Hastings will stand by your side, managing the insurance arrangements for the artworks and facilitating the painting's sale. Upon your arrival at the museum, you'll be introduced to Mortimer Ailsworth, the painting's current owner, and Evelyn Warbeck, the museum's curator. Leverage every tool available to scrutinize security measures and shield the precious artwork from lurking dangers.

A week passes, and a Preview Gala draws all key figures together under one roof. But the evening takes a dramatic twist when the painting vanishes right before everyone's eyes. Only your razor-sharp detective instincts can pierce through the deception and expose the thief responsible for the brazen heist.

Can you crack the case and recover the stolen masterpiece?
