So BEFORE I TALK ABOUT THIS GAME even though I did want to enjoy it, I need to point out some big problems about it: - Firstly, SAVE OFTEN AND SAVE PLENTY because the game has a bizarre bug that sometimes stops you saving and it has no autosave feature, even though this is a game from 2009. - Secondly, when you have to draw on a map and it tells you to draw an Ellipse, just try to do this exactly - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/43253912/map-%2816-9%29.jpg - it is absurdly ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ precise and I'm gonna save you a lot of hassle. - Thirdly, if you cannot load up the game for some reason, go to the PhysX folder inside the game's Steam folder and click on PhysX drivers. Then click "repair" and it should work. If not there is the Steam Community that gave me this advice. Now, the actual review of the game. The world's most famous fictional detective versus the most infamous serial kill
I played this game when it originally released on DVD-ROM, many years ago, and absolutely loved the atmosphere, the story, the puzzle solving, the simple but effective graphics, and the quite good voice acting. All of those things still hold true. The story's excellent. The atmosphere's wonderful. The puzzle solving's fun. The voice acting is very good. The graphics are simple (and admittedly dated), but effective. And if that were the whole of it, I would 100% recommend this game. However, the game is now beset by bugs that are (probably) caused by its old game engine simply not working well on modern game systems. And while this *is* understandable to a degree, some of these bugs are absolutely game destroying. In specific, I ran into a bug about four hours in that left me completely unable to save any longer. This is evidently a pretty well-known bug, that the developers are comple
As a few other of the Sherlock series games this one just doesn't want to start properly. It freezes after the 'New Game' button is clicked and fails after you minimize it. Useless! Update! I did find the solution: Originally posted by swenor: Open Find and search for 'PhysXLoader64.dll' , it should be in your C:\...\Nvidia etc. folder. Copy the file and paste it in your game folder, where the .exe is. If you have a 64-bit version of windows, try pasting it in the C:\Program Files folder, since that is the 64-bit folder and the Nvidia folder is in C:\Program Files (x86). Have fun :)
Developer has recently fixed the game to work properly in Windows 10. A bug that made saving impossible has been fixed and I can finally finish the game.
Probably the most exciting Sherlock Holmes adventure ever made in video games. Though the visuals aren't perfect and some puzzles may not be as clear as they should be, the whole picture of the game seems more than satisfying, considering there's a bunch of surprising story twists to discover, and the ambience here is remarkable. Moreover, the gameplay itself also has a couple of aces up its sleeve to get one's attention during the playthrough. Gear up and bring two legends together while leading your own investigation of the case that terrified London in 1888. I strongly recommend you to.
There's a bug where you cannot save the game after a couple hours of gameplay. The only way to finish this game is to power through it in one sitting and hoping it won't miraculously crash/freeze at random times, which is guaranteed to happen at some point. Losing your progress when your last save was 2 hours ago isn't fun. It's unfortunate because this is a nice game overall but the save bug kills it for me. I won't be touching this game again unless it's fixed, which probably won't happen so I'd rather just watch a playthrough on youtube.
