New case Mr Holmes?
I do like a good murder mystery and played many over the years the pinnacle of the triple A being LA Noir of course but this time for me it was a lesser known title that I only heard a few murmurings of.
In all honesty it is up there with LA Noir and can really excel in many aspects. The cases are entertaining, have multiple endings that actually feel different and give you a good variety in style. The deduction space is also a great addition that LA Noir really could learn from if they ever do a sequel and the magnificent sherlock vision/imagination add more depth to the gameplay.
You also have the usual cast of Watson, Mycroft, Mrs Hudson and so on but seems to be missing Moriarty which was a shame. Whether he appeared in the previous Sherlock title from this company I cant say but it would of been nice to have a couple of cases involving Sherlocks biggest adversary.
Then it comes to the content length, for most it would be a little short but for me I got a platinum in two playthroughs and attempted all the other endings which was fun and ample enough gameplay for me. However some may not think so, you may be disappointed at the length of the game!
I have streamed this game on my channel and I am in the process of editing the entire thing but you can see the playlist here if you fancy a watch. It is a mammoth watch but and enjoyable one none the less.
Thanks for reading folks
