The Express Killer is the sequel to Murder in the Hotel Lisbon. It follows the classic point and click adventure formula from the 80’s and 90’s. The game itself runs at a native resolution of 256x192, the same resolution used by the old ZX Spectrum 48k and the Nintendo DS.
Synopsis:
Someone has been killing passengers on the express train from Lisbon to Porto, every single day since Tuesday! Someone needs to stop the killer! Once again Garcia is not up to the task (was he ever?) and reluctantly calls upon his old friend and his strange flying sidekick: the mythical Detective Case and the unmistakable Clown Bot.
Together, they will board on the express train, bother everyone by asking annoying questions, pick up everyone’s belongings and call them clues, drink and eat for free at the bar (because they are working after all!) and if all goes well, find and stop the express killer.
Oh, and they have to babysit Garcia’s kid because his mom is in Porto and Garcia is busy and since they are taking the train to Porto they might as well take him with them. What could go wrong, right?
Time for you to board on a brand new adventure filled with humor, cases (this time many cases!), mysteries, and even more characters now than ever before! Will you be able to gather clues, solve the puzzles, succeed the trials, and find the culprit before reaching the final station?!
Characters:
With the mythical Detective Case, also known as the world worst detective, a man so rough and rude that his witnesses would rather be run over by a slow-moving freight train than to be questioned by him.
The hilarious Clown Bot who, although he works as a Detective Case’s sidekick, he hopes in reality that one day he will get a job as a circus clown. Unfortunately, and no matter how many applications he sends, no circus will ever accept a clown that is afraid of children. He never sleeps, so besides working by day as a sidekick, he also works by night as a stand-up comedian in a local bar. People say that he is a joke machine!
And Garcia’s kid, what’s his name? Billy Joel? What is he doing here?

PS: We brought back the original soundtrack from the first game too, of course.

cute
Another great adventure game that I will remember for a long time!
This one is good but the 1st one, for me, remains the best. Found some bugs, misspellings and whatnot, yet I wish there was more game to sink my eyes into its art because it felt a bit short. I liked the ost and that teeth hunting as well. I will wait (im)patiently for more Nerd Monkeys games, they are an amazing team.
PT: Granda sequela c******!!!
Tal como o primeiro jogo, mais maluqueira, mais uns saidequestes marados e desta vez também vemos uma linda garrafa de Licor Beirão pixelizada!!! Um verdadeiro jogo à tuga (e que me fez decidir deixar de ir para Lisboa ou Porto no Inter-Cidades) e que recomendo jogarem (nem que seja só para se rirem)!
ENG: A great f****** sequel!!
Just like the 1st game, it has more sillyness, a few more cooky side-quests and this time also features a beautiful pixelized bottle of Licor Beirão!!! A real true Tuga style game (that made me decide to never take the Inter-Cidades Porto-Lisbon ever again) that I recommend playing (even if just for a laugh)!
A quick note to people playing this game in english, though: If you play (and understand) in Portuguese, the game becomes 200% funnier
A significant improvement to the pace of the game vs the 1st episode. The added mini-games where a nice feature and mix of different gameplay mechanics and the story, as always, was fun and enjoyable till the very end. Recommended!
I wanted to like this game like I liked Detective Case and Clown Bot: Murder in Hotel Lisbon, but I was hugely dissapointed. The game as whole felt smaller and the story didn't capture with same feeling (film noir spiced with humour) like the first one. The story started quite quickly and Detective Case was thrown a new case almost as soon as they woke up from hungover, but the story in the end fell flat and ended as quickly it started. The whole game plotwise seems rushed.
But what pushed over this to be a negative review was one of the puzzles that I didn't miss from the 90's: pixel hunting. One of the puzzles needed to complete the game is to collect 30 teeth. And as teeth are white and the graphics is retro pixel style, this becomes infuriating.
Just TOP!!!
An amazing throwback to a style of games you dont see anymore and yet with fresh new mechanics. I'm enjoying it thoroughly!
