About

An unexpected guest interrupted my morning routine, speaking in impassioned tones about an intriguing murder. An unassuming woman has been charged with the death of a scoundrel, a fortune-squandering bounder. True, she was found over the body, pistol in hand but there are other avenues in this case that even the Yard has refused to set foot upon – especially when they wind into darker places of London’s society. I have the feeling that there is more to the case than meets the eye.

Zojoi teamed up with famed board game company Sleuth Times to reproduce the award-winning Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective video mysteries for Windows and Mac. This original titles was considered the pioneer products for emerging optical technologies and took advantage of the medium with full-motion video (FMV), intriguing storylines and fun game play. The restored retro game feature recaptured video, high-resolution graphics and strong storytelling and design.

Direct the famous Baker Street detectives through the fog-filled streets of London, and solve mysteries in a faithful adaptation of the board game that features:

  • 30 minutes or more of original video footage
  • Sherlock Holmes, his case companion, Dr. Watson, and over 20 additional characters (both trustworthy and unscrupulous!)
  • Full English subtitle support
  • Search the London Times for clues, peruse Holmes’ personal files, scour through the London Directory and receive hints from Watson himself
  • Present your findings to the Queen’s magistrate – and learn how you did against the master detective
