The game started out nice enough. Point-n-click adventure game. Not the best, but enjoyable.Then I got to the part where you need to stealthely get by a guard and his dog. A stealth part in an adventure game. Now, if implemented properly, this wouldn't be that bad. Unfortunatelly that is not the case here. The rules of how they can detect you are not explained nor are they obvious. Depending on where you are, Holmes may or may not be able to go where you click. Even after checking out some walkthroughs and knowing what I was supposed to do (which didn't really make sense in the first place) I was not able to get through this stage. Quite a shame since from what I understand, that's about halfway through. Oh well.. I enjoyed this, it was challenging, to say the least. I had to use walkthrough many times, since I just wanted to continue futher. The story was interesting, but some of the quizzes were too hard and annoying to pass.. The game is in many ways extremely flawed. The GUI is a complete pain, especially in portions where Sherlock needs to be moved around with precision, as he requires several second to just turn around, even when trying to avoid guards, and the game world is filled with invisible walls. The fixed third-person perspective also often turns the game into pixel hunt. Besides that, the game also pointlessly makes the player manually select dialogue options, even though all need to be cycled through, and all are recording in the journal, so there's no need to ever revisit them.
