I'm a fan of the Sherlock Holmes games, but this one let me down on more than one occasion.

- You can see the plot twists coming from a mile away.
- Paradoxally, some of the puzzles are so remote and hard to figure out you can't possibly do it without the included guide.
- The voice acting is awful through and through. More than usual. Very disappointing in a game that relies so much on dialogues.
- The soundtrack is very limited, and apparently almost entirely made out of classical music. That's okay, but it's still limited.
- The mise en scene/cutscene direction is laughably bad in more than one occasion. Also more so than usual in this series.

Only redeeming value is the recreation of a few iconic London landmarks in lovely detail.
