Introduction
This walkthrough assumes you are familiar with operating the
game's user interface.
The Last Express is not a completely linear game, so this
walkthrough is only one order of events while others will also lead to
a successful game completion.
The events in this game do not always happen at the same time or
in same place for each game played. For this reason you may find it
difficult to follow this walkthrough exactly. You may get behind
schedule and miss opportunities. Usually you will get another chance
to perform critical actions. If the game ends prematurely you can
always rewind.
General Hints
1. Whenever the conductors are not at their stations take a look
at their books. One of them sketches the passengers. These pictures
may provide clues. Check this book as often as you can. As the journey
progresses, you will find more sketches in his book. The other book
contains the passenger list.
2. The newspaper in the smoking compartment contains interesting
political information.
3. Whenever the conductors' views are blocked you can try to
enter other passenger's compartments.
4. When the guard leaves his office in the baggage car, usually
to make announcements for meals or stops, you can explore the forward
baggage compartment.
5. Eavesdrop as much as possible.
6. Engage the other passengers in conversation as often as
possible. This walkthrough will not enable you to listen to every
conversation, but you will hear most of them.
7.Follow the passengers when they move. This may represent
another opportunity for eavesdropping or conversation.
8.This game, although mainly a puzzle solving adventure, involves
a few action sequences where you have to fight with an assailant. The
fights involve hand-eye coordination and fast reactions. They get
increasingly difficult as the game progresses. The game will end
prematurely if you lose the fight. But with practice you will win.
Don't despair! 9.To begin with you will be unfamiliar with the layout
of the train. Here is the initial configuration:

the body or you will be arrested for Tyler's murder! Open the

window. Your jacket is bloody. If the conductor sees you like this you
will be arrested, so swap it for Tyler's jacket hanging near the

noted down the time of 10:40 p.m. on his train timetable?
Track down the sound of the clock to the Guard's forward station
panel. Open the panel and find the bomb. Move the bomb once only. Use
a cigarette on the exposed wires to burn through the wires. Do not
