Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: The Thames Murders & Other Cases

Step into the fog-drenched alleys of Victorian London and match wits with the greatest detective of all time in Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: The Thames Murders & Other Cases. This immersive, narrative-driven experience puts you in the shoes of a 19th-century sleuth. No dice, no luck—just your logic, cunning, and a stack of clues to untangle murders, art thefts, and cryptic disappearances across Holmes’ beloved city. Interview suspects, scour the daily papers, trace leads through London's winding streets, and try to outthink Sherlock himself. Think you've got what it takes? Holmes is watching—and he's not easily impressed.

With ten richly detailed cases to crack, you’ll explore opium dens, darkened alleyways, opulent parlors, and ominous crime scenes, all recreated with meticulous Holmesian and Victorian accuracy. Can you uncover who murdered Oswald Mason, why two lions were killed in Hyde Park, or what became of the vanished National Gallery masterpieces? Each mystery is a thrilling test of your deductive skill. This is more than a game—it’s a plunge into the very heart of classic detective fiction. The game is afoot!
