If this is your first Sherlock Holmes game, then do not buy it. "Crimes and Punishments" or "Devil's Daughter" is better choice. And for other Sherlock Holmes games enjoyers this is a good pick with a discount. Game adds open world and combat. Both are questionable additions, that I didn't liked at first, but they grow on me. City is beautiful, each district in different and unique. Exploration only yields new sub cases. Apart from that there is literally nothing to do in it. Combat is strange, but enjoyable in its own way. It can be skipped and there is no mandatory combats. Cases are downgrade from other games. Despite the amount of cases, dev went from quality to quantity. Only the main cases have access to "Mind Palace", while sub cases have 1 conclusion. Main cases now have vague endings where you don't know if its the right choice. Its the my main problem with the game. Feels like dev's don't have the balls to say which choice is the correct one, so they blur the endings to make you feel like you made the correct choice and to not "offend" or "hurt" people who made the wrong choice Main story and Sherlock's companion Jon are both good and enjoyable.

It was a good play. Make sure you buy this ON SALE because the main story is really short, I had more fun with the side quests/cases. If you are playing this now or planning to purchase, just one tip; after finishing the "Sacrificial Lamb" main story case, make sure you go and complete all side quests/cases because once you return to stonewood manor, it's the ending. You will have to load your manual save, if you were able to do that, or else the game will just load your last auto save which is in the mind place of "A Mother's Love" last part, the ending. ALSO, there's action on this one! Gun fights on some cases and all bandit lairs. I hated it, I can't arrest them all, I end up killing a lot of them. So I had help every time, it's so frustrating! BUT I am still recommending this game. I love solving the mysteries, the side stories are good too, graphics is beautiful, and eavesdropping was funny. WARNING for "The Muse from Abroad" case, it's not very graphic but the story is not for the lighthearted. THE ENDING. I was happy to see the real John and the imaginary Jon gone.

April 2024

I’m recommending this game only for longtime fans of the series to see how the gameplay has evolved and to experience the start of the new direction Frogwares is taking. However, the game has many cons: - The fictional setting of Cordona, albeit beautiful, feels fake and unreal. - Sherlock looks and dresses like a Final Fantasy character. - Sherlock having an imaginery friend feels awkward. - The open world is devoid of interaction. - The open world stutters on my high-end machine. - Many cases are missable if you do not happen to randomly stumble upon them. - Having to pin evidence becomes tedious and feels unneccesary. - Once you complete the game you cannot return to the open world to complete incomplete cases or discover new ones.

Jan. 2024

I would recommend this game for its world - I loved just running around, collecting treasures, stumbling into tome short silly cases. Main story wasn't my cup of tea but some of the bigger cases were fun. But Cordona is just simply beautiful!
