What players say
Players are split on this early Frogwares Sherlock game. Many enjoy the first-person perspective and the London setting, but most agree the puzzles are often obtuse and the environments are too large, making item-hunting tedious. The bird puzzle is a notorious low point, and some players report performance stuttering.
