It had potential
This review is for the PC (Microsoft Windows) version
I think the game had potential but I think the execution was too difficult. The summing up of the case each time was impossible without some feedback. I think the story had potential though, hopefully, there will be another with some tweaks.

Quite possibly one of the worst games I have ever played. Say nothing of the awful and repetitive dialogue, along with a group of characters who share the personality and charm of a damp dishrag, the game controls horribly. The little 'action' game segments cannot be supported by such poor controls, as Sherlock Holmes never seems to quite know what direction you're telling him to go in.
The age of this game does not excuse how badly it handles on PC.
