4.0 out of 5 stars Really good game.

I love a good puzzle/action adventure game and I found this game to be a lot better than I thought it would be. I like puzzle games like portal(action and puzzle). This game didn't really have any interactive action or fighting but I still found myself sucked in to the story from start to finish. The story is fun, the characters are cool and some of the puzzles are a real challenge. It gets hard, but not soo hard that you give up. If you like a good "Who done it?" story in a game, you'll most likely love this. Well worth the price and I'll play it again for sure.

It's often hard to know what to make of the reviews of games like this. There are people who hate anything that isn't an action shooter so reading the reviews is like solving a mystery, are the bad reviews from people who hate the game because it's bad or are they people who would hate any point and click puzzle solver, i.e. they hate the genre? So I'll start by saying I really wanted to like this game, I like the Sherlock Holmes books, I like puzzles, I wish they would make more of these type games for consoles. Still the game was a disappointment and although I enjoyed some of the puzzles I was glad when it was finished.

In the opening scene Holmes is smoking cigarettes with yellow filter tips. It should be common sense that filtered cigarettes have no place in the 1880's. That doesn't inspire confidence in the people who came up with the puzzles, perhaps it was intentionally put in as a clue that this game was badly designed. More inaccuracies follow and while I'm not one to nitpick such things this sloppiness is relevant because it also manifests itself in the design of the puzzles.

Voice acting is another thing I normally don't care about but the voice and accent of Holmes in this game is identical to that of Stewie, the baby from the cartoon Family Guy.

At times the dialogue in the subtitles has mistakes or differs slightly from what is said by the character. More sloppiness.

In some of the puzzles elements are small and poorly rendered. I've got a 42 inch plasma set and had to get up for a closer look a few times. Good luck with a small tube set. There was no reason for this other then sloppy design.

Up until now all my complaints have been minor but here is the serious problem with the game. The puzzles are often poorly explained or not explained at all and sometimes counter intuitive. The help button is never helpful in explaining your objective. If you knew what the puzzle wanted from you, you could work towards solving it but you don't so you end up using trial and error or consulting a guide. Trial and error is no fun and if you look at a guide the answer is given away along with the explanation so you miss out on solving a puzzle that may have been fun.

I don't want to give anything away so all I'll say about the plot is that it's mediocre at best, the ending is unsatisfying and has a mime scene set to music that is strange and out of place.

So should you buy this game? Since it's inexpensive maybe you should, if you love puzzle games and your expectations aren't too high you may enjoy it or at least parts of it. It's also an easy 1000 achievement points if you care about racking them up.

1.0 out of 5 stars WHY DO PROGRAMMERS HATE OLD PEOPLE?
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2013
I was playing this game and happy as a pig in pooh. All of a sudden, for some unknown and stupid reason, the producers of this game had to throw in a difficult eye-hand coordination "challenge." If I were playing it on PC, I could probably do it. On the Xbox it is so difficult I may not be able to finish the game. The puzzle? There is a "magnetic" box. You have to simultaneously move two objects through a narrow field without touching the wall or obstacles. To make matters worse, the controls are backwards (move to the right to go left and down to go up). Just stupid and uncalled for. If you want to play this game, get the PC version. The Xbox rendition is awful.

UPDATE: I turned my controller upside down and got through this problem area.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed

I love Sherlock Holmes, but I do not like the voice chosen to portray him. Neither do I care for the script. There is a lot the character says that I seriously doubt Holmes would say. Holmes never was much of a talker, as Watson has pointed out in many adventures.

I also find the camera angles weird to control. I have spent way too much time trying to figure out what the heck i am missing so I can continue to the next piece of the game. But there is no indication as to what I need to do. I also find it frustrating that to get one clue, I have to do 20 favors for people (one leads to another, in order to get another, to get another, and so on...).

There a lot of glitches in the rendering too that makes it distracting and feels like it wasn't quite finished/complete before they produced it.

Overall, I am disappointed in the game. It's more frustrating than exciting. I feel obligated to finish it so I can move on to a new game.

On the plus side, I rather enjoyed the lock combination on the briefcase. That part was fun!
