I asked why this game is not available here, not why you are not able to give intelligent answers.

It's likely they are working on getting the build uploaded to the servers. GOG can't begin the process until they receive the final release build from the developer, and occasionally there's a snag.

Well, I may not have any info about the reason for the delayed release either, but I have read two quite disenchanting reviews and as a consequence cancelled my preorder.
Here is one:
http://www.adventuregamers.com/articles/view/18384

The "best" things could be summarized as the game being extremely simplified, no deduction, terrible mechanic puzzles that have no place in a Poirot adventure game and on top of already limited gameplay constantly being told what to do.

EDIT: what bothers me the most is the publisher's having marketed the game as being challenging which an adventure game where you play Poirot bloody well should be.
It appears another playthrough of Evil Under the Sun is in order which I can wholeheartedly recommend.

Patience - GOG staff is in the process of removing the DRM now that we' re talking. ;)

That review is for a NINTENDO DS game released in 2010, by a different studio.

Edit: Sorry, the review is from 2010, the game is from 2009.

Ok. This test seems to be hard at reality and the regard of the test is not good. I thought by myself that this game will not be one of the games which makes you brainstorming, but it seems it will be just a better hidden object.
