Mar 15, 2023Garbage. This is some of the laziest design you'll see in a game of this type. Also the character design is atrocious. Everyone looks like they shop at forever 21 for some reason... Those are minor issue compared to what passes as combat in this trashterpiece. And the cases, the most important aspect of the game, are all hollow, meaningless experiences. AVOID THIS GAME AT ALL COSTS

Jan 28, 2022A potentially interesting game ruined by a stupid off-center camera. Devs, put the character in the center of the screen.

Nov 19, 2021Wtf is this? Nothing at all like the older games. This character is barely Sherlock. His 'mate' Jon is not the kind of person Sherlock would hang around with and is incredibly irritating. The voice acting is third rate compared to previous itterations.
Frogware have LOST THE PLOT! -
Feb 6, 2022Crimes and Punishment was the best in the series. This is a generic B grade game.

Feb 23, 2022I’ve played a few Sherlock games before and really enjoyed them. Chapter One has exceeded all expectations and made the bar very high for all future installments. It’s one of the best games I played this year! Being in an open world and solving cases is pure bliss. At least for people who like crime and solving cases. Don’t let the price fool you, this is a full game with tons of awesome content. It’s just a bonus that it costs less than the average AAA title. When it’s called Chapter One, it gives the impression there are more installments planned. But because technically it’s more of a prequel of sorts, it very well could be by itself and the name could just represent the timeline. I would be thrilled if there are more chapters, especially with the last scene of the game being so exciting. If there’s any indication this version of Sherlock will continue, count me in.

Feb 14, 2022If you love the detective genre, then you will adore the challenge that awaits. With some interesting and bizarre crimes to solve, colourful characters and vivid era-specific imagery, it’s a treat for the senses. However, even with all these positives, it was missing something! I can’t ignore the rinse and repeat character models, the rehash of many scenarios, and the lack of interaction. It left me wanting more, as I could see its potential. Despite its shortcomings, I recommend you to buy it.
