The uncompromising investigation process, misdirected horror, tedious clue-searching, and unsatisfying story make Sherlock Holmes The Awakened a bit of a sad case...

Fun but campy storytelling, decent visual style, immersive world
Puzzles are often simplistic, bad story pacing. The game often feels rushed
Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened is the direct product of an excessively-rushed development cycle. It suffers from questionable narrative direction, poor visual fidelity, and generic puzzles that will entertain the player at first, but quickly become tediou...

Abstract: Like many book and movie franchises, the fictional detective phenomena known as Sherlock Holmes has had much more success doing his thing on paper and on film than he has in interactive computer games. I dont what it is, but something about a 19th Cen...
Abstract: Tory FavroClassification: PG7.0A lot of the time these games are slow moving affairs with your character making it’s way through a nicely pre rendered world and listening to stacks of dialogue. This time it’s a different affair with an adventu...
