Thank you. I still can't guess the screenshot, however .

Shows how much I know. I thought VOG meant very old games.

Oh, I don't remember if I've actually seen it called 'obscure'. Maybe it was just my interpretation from the discussion. You could be right also.

Although the game is not well known, it would have been a giveaway if I hadn't removed the main character from both screens.

Ok,this is a long shot but could it be "Timescape:Journey from Pompeii"?

Too easy Eric the Unready (picture from MobyGames)

Next:


And yes, Rome Caesar's Will is definitively a VOG (very obscure game)

If it´s not And Then There Were none, i believe it is from a Sherlock Holmes game or an Agatha Christie one. I have to remember which one now...

My guess would be Evil Under The Sun then.. it's the same deco style, and it's not And then there were none, because I dont remember loading screens..
And I dont believe it to be Murder on the orient express.. but it deffers looks Agatha Christie-ish.
