Replying to Murder In A Wheel

Glad you enjoyed it.  

Great game! I loved the graphics and the funny storyline too. It's really worth a try!

This is definitely a must-play game. The biggest problem is that it is sooo short I solved it in about 40min (without any help). Another thing - it would be better if the house was bigger, with more puzzles and characters. I mean, it is a mansion, and looking at its picture at the beginning and at the end, it has more than 2 floors...A dusty dark attic would be nice to explore...A cold and musty closet with some secret passage...But despite these unfinished thingies , the game is very good. The plot is nice (a dead hamster ), sounds are cool (music is taken from LucasArts and that's why - no minuses ; footsteps, violin, door bell, door squeaks add a nice atmosphere), graphics are in LucasArts-style so here are no complains too , puzzles are more or less very easy. The author deserves a 5 for his work (not German 5 as note ).
Thanks for this pleasant but very short experience  

The game is available for download now at AGS website.  


Rikje, I don't know why it crashes for you when you use hi-res.  Sorry.  

Enjoying it. Not a masterpiece, but surely worth the time!

(BTW: the program runs well under XP on my PC, but only in low-res.. it crashes when I try high-res..., any clue??)

Looks great, but alas, the downloadlink at bluechips didn't work..
I'll try again tomorrow.

Edit 16 march: downloaded the game via the link in Frodo's post, thx!
You'll hear from me when I have played the game   .
