This is honestly one of my favorite HO games, not the least because I'm a Holmes fan and Hound of the Bakervilles is one of my favorite books. However, I will warn the Sherlock purists that this game has only a very passing relationship to the book so if you're looking for a HO-version of the classic, you very well might hate this. The story is really very different. In terms of general gameplay this is a pretty standard game for the genre, with HO scenes mixed with minigame puzzles and the usual inventory-based puzzles. Where it departs from the norm is with a handful of special "powers" unlocked throughout the game that add to the puzzles; while in some cases it's apparent what you have to use and when, other times it took some thought and I appreciated that. Puzzles and minigames themselves are average difficulty, not hard but not too easy, with the exception of one or two of the mi
Nice HO game, but the original story has been mutilated. There's always a logical explanation in S.H. stories, never any magic or supernatural forces. Edit: It no longer works even after applying every fix I could find here or online.
Even though this game strays from a traditional type Sherlock story, this game was enjoyable and had good atmosphere. Like most HOG games this story is a "supernatural" type of story, which definitely is not in line with the normal Sherlock fare. The story is good and has excellent puzzles along with good HOG scenes. Getting the special abilities as you play added to the adventure in a good way as well. There was an acceptable amount of backtracking, without being a nuisance. The voice acting was excellent, keeping the story moving. The achievements were fairly easy to get, a minimum of one play through will be needed to get all achievements if you play on the hard level to start. If not expect a minimum of two play throughs to get 100%I achievements. I highly recommend this game for HOG enthusiasts as well as Sherlock fans.
My 2nd Sherlock Holmes game on Steam, this time a Hidden Object game from 2010. The story is okay, sadly it hasnt much to do with the original A. C. Doyle roman but its not bad, the game has a few interesting options like the 5 skills you learn, but sadly the game is short, the graphics are okay and 1-2 puzzles are really not easy to do. For Hidden Object game fans, get it with a 50% discount because if you dont hunt achievements you can finish game in 2 hours on easy. I hope you enjoy it :)
Sherlock Holmes and the Hound of the Baskervilles * 7/10 Another Hidden Object adventure involving Sherlock Holmes in one of his famous stories from the homonymous original novel. This time Frogware is just a publisher not the developer and this choice is evident in many ways inside the game. This short adventure starts With Henry Baskerville asking Sherlock Holmes to help him to break the curse of his family which involves a big Hound that brutally kills all of the Baskerville family members from generations. Now, for those who are familiar with Sherlock Holmes and the original novel, yes: this is not exactly a faithful transposition but it's more like an interpretation... Which works good and bad at the same time. Good beccause the adventure in a big mansion where a Demonic dog is supposed to be is quite a good idea giving the game a good dark atmosphere. Bad because this interpretat
While the game takes several liberties with the classic Arthur Conan Doyle mystery, and puts an interesting spin on it, its spirit and/or heart is in the right place. I got the sense that the developers (Waterlily Games), really enjoyed creating this point and click, hidden object tale. The puzzles are done cleverly, and without being too easy or mind numbingly hard. One or two of them actually gave me pause in a good way. The story flows in what feels like a proper beginning, middle, and ending. It's not abrupt or forced. The color palatte is wonderfully lush and the graphics are very good for a "now" older game. The atmosphere is perfectly eerie, the music pretty, and the vocal talent/cast does a good job throughout. Watson's dialogue is particularly amusing and a real treat in a few scenes. However, I won't spoil it for you. I finished the game within a few hours and was not disappoi
