The Last Express was created by Jordan Mechner, the creator of Prince of Persia, and Smoking Car Productions, published in 1997. It is a unique game which takes place in almost complete real-time. For the most part, the biggest challenge is figuring out how to be in the right place at the right time--and finding out what the right place actually is. Set on the Orient Express in 1914, the player takes on the role of Robert Cath, an American doctor on the train's final journey from Paris to Constantinople (modern Istanbul) before World War I. Cath, already wanted by French police as he is suspected of the murder of an Irish police officer, is contacted urgently by his old friend Tyler Whitney, to join him on the Orient Express, gateway to the East, and a possible exit from all his troubles. However, from the moment he steps onto this luxurious train, Cath becomes involved in a maelstrom of treachery, lies, political conspiracies, personal interests, romance and murder.
Note: It is sometimes necessary to simply wait for something to happen. Not wanting to make this walkthtrough boring, I edited those parts out.
