A masterpiece of a detective game... Manages to deliver a thoroughly enjoyable open-world adventure with an interesting cast, stunning environmental visuals, and highly immersive and engaging sleuthing gameplay.

I need a little more hand holding than Sherlock Holmes Chapter One gives. I'm not as smart as Sherlock, and found myself bumbling around at times like a lost child. When I was in the zone I was having a good time. The variety of costumes made for a fun time, and the eavesdropping mini game were a good distraction to a worthwhile story. The game has flaws, but those can easily be overlooked with a mountain of  fun and interesting mysteries to solve.

Sherlock searches for clues, he puts them together in his 'mind palace' and eventually he solves the mystery. It works, but if the goal was to make this game different from previous Frogwares Sherlock games, it doesn't do that. There's nothing here you haven't seen from one of these games before.
