Zalsha said:Constable Anton Jakob Zellner seems like a true direct ripoff of Hercule Poirot. I never played the original game, but unless that's something they addressed as inspiration, that is...really blatant.
I'm not sure it needs to be "addressed". Poirot isn't exactly an unknown literary character, this is a bit like making a game with elves and dwarves and not calling out Tolkien.
