I wanted to like this game, as I'm a fan of anything Holmes and enjoy old FMV games, but there really isn't much of a game here. It's an odd game that rewards you for playing as little of it as possible. You get a better score the less "clues" you need to solve the case, which functionally equates to you NOT following every lead or interviewing every suspect / expert. This might work well for the board game, but makes you feel like you are skipping most of the video game to get the best score (and the associated achievements).
If you can get past this, many of the FMV scenes are charming and the costuming is nice. But you can easily finish this "game" (more of an interactive movie, really) in well under an hour. I would only recommend picking it up on sale or as part of a bundle if you're curious, but it's a pretty shallow experience overall. Not much here, but for a Sherlock completionist, might be worth a couple dollars just to see what it's about.
really enjoyed the FMV scenes, and found it overall very charming! but the game itself leaves a lot to be desired, very short and the solution is obvious.
Check it out if you enjoy Sherlock Holmes or cheesy FMV games but i wouldn't really recommend it for anyone outside of that demographic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
