The London Times started it all – calling the murders the work of an ancient Egyptian curse. I accused the tabloid of capitalizing on the superstitions of the populace. Yet, three men were dead, with the wrappings of a 4000-year old mummy binding their fates together.

to me this game was mostly a bunch of clips I had to sit through and take notes on, which is not my preferred style of detective games.
Well done and remade nicely but way to short, the story was ok best part was the conclusion at the end
not my kind of game style

Brings back memory! Still remember when playing the classic Mac OS version on my iMac G3. Though everything is good, the game can be better if all clips are upscaled to either 1080p or 4K. Videos having 480p resolution shows pixelated images on my display.
Everything plays out well in this game except the scoring system. Recommended overall
It's a deceptively simple Sherlock Holmes Visual Novel (FMV Style Game) with interactions where you send Scotland Yard and/or the Irregular Ones to go and find you information, then you present your case to the Judge but if you don't have ALL of the information the Case doesn't go ahead, and whilst that's a handy barometer to showcase whether or not you're on the right track it would be better if the game had a "bad end" where if you didn't find all the info the villain got away but I appreciate that wouldn't be in-keeping with The Master Detective

I played a bunch of these in the 90s- I enjoyed them enough. When I booted up Zojoi's remasters- I thought they hadn't done much to update them... sure, they ran on my modern PC, but what did they really change? They looked just like my memory of them. But then I made the mistake of actually comparing them to the CDs I still had! Great Scott! There is no comparison between the original video quality and the Zojoi version! These are really something. My memory was far to kind to the original release. Now my only sadness is that Zojoi has only upgraded 4 of the 9 original cases. Here's hoping another case drops soon!
great game! loved it.
