Jun 24, 2025While its sedate pace differs from previous Sherlock Holmes offerings, The Beekeeper’s Picnic – A Sherlockian Adventure is a fitting coda to Holmes’ illustrious career. Its enjoyable dialogs, delicately tinted environs, and manageable puzzles enhance his newly found grasp of life’s ultimate challenges.

May 9, 2025There are no grand mysteries for Sherlock Holmes to solve in The Beekeeper’s Picnic, but rather a cozy, charming, easy little adventure about the world’s most famous retired detective dusting off his deduction skills for worthwhile personal reasons.

Apr 18, 2025This game is such a total delight. It’s warm, meaningful, and packed with whimsy. (Toby III, Holmes’ new pet dog, can talk, although of course no humans can understand him. A stuffed bear in the background of one small scene can be talked to, too, for a lovely little extra.) Exploring the love between Holmes and Watson could have been so clumsy, but not a foot is put wrong, the result so heartwarming and truthful...I don’t know how this game came to exist, nor how it has gone so completely under the radar. This is, improbably, primarily the work of one person–Helen Greetham. She has written, programmed and drawn the entire game, and I think legitimately added to the Holmesian canon in a way so much of the post-copyright contributions fail to achieve. This is my perfect ending to the tales of Holmes and Watson, and I’m so delighted to have played it.
