    Frogwares proved with The Devil’s Daughter that they understand neither Sherlock Holmes nor adventure games and the logic of detective novels. I say we unleash the hound of the Baskervilles on them. [08/2016, p.63]

    Three weak cases, one decent, and a lackluster finale make Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter a marked step back from its predecessor.

    I really loved the series before and I have/played all of them. My main problem is that Devil's Daughter is not an adventure game any more,I really loved the series before and I have/played all of them. My main problem is that Devil's Daughter is not an adventure game any more, but a QTE abusing, console sh*t. And of the said genre there are a myriad out there that are a lot better... Frogware was making Sherlock adventure games before and built up a solid fan base in like a decade. Now they have new money men on their neck who want profit and for that you have to make simple (stupid) games, a five year old can enjoy. There you have it. No thinking involved here, just button smashing. Instead of quick money they should have stayed on their paved way, because this way they loose the old fans and won't get any new ones. This is a sad end for a great series.
    BTW the game wasn't released steam yet, still it had already 10+ positive votes and 1 "review" of a user with 1 review in all and copy paste text. Makes you think about the new Frogware style of game marketing.    … Full Review »

    i just hope that denuvo cost them more money than they will profit from pc version, because this game is garbage, thanks Gaben for steami just hope that denuvo cost them more money than they will profit from pc version, because this game is garbage, thanks Gaben for steam refund system. This is not adventure game, at least not good one. It is worse than its predecessor with more QTE. I hate two things in games - "cinematic experience" and QTE, this game delivers both.… Full Review »
