Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Aug 18 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Oh my goshhhhhhhh, what a lovely experience that was!!! Huge shoutout to Ladynorbert and their walkthrough which was absolutely needed for this game. Loved the internal commentary, I also don't understand what he saw in the forest. So scawwy!!!!! Miss Lavinia, hmu girl, I will treat u better <3 This adventure was one to remember, truly a wild ride and I will never forget the plot. "Blood!" "Gin!" "Blood!" "Gin!"
It is quite an interesting game that i did enjoyed, but here are my own thoughts about it. The camera is fixed and forced upon a view and moving the character requires using you mouse as a point and click which i found a bit...weird in my opinion, unable for you to look around but to place your character around yourself. The background seem to be a very ,very old style that in this modern day there is still some issues that i found out. If you play with a gaming pc and want to get that fully resolution ,the backround proportion are quite mistakenly displaced with the current view. Another issue being the background displacement ,Sherlock Holmes looks more bigger next to a door or goes through a pillar due to how the placement was put. Since it is an old game it makes sense ,but i found a little solution ,putting the least resolution seem to fix the displacement, however in my playthrough i have found that the documents ,talk and the evidence found in the gameplay seem to be bugging themself up to a point of not been able to understand properly. I had to verify files in order to fix the issues and unfortunately play with the displacement of the background resolution to keep the documentations intact. Now as for the game itself ,i noticed you can play sometimes as Watson too which i found it very nice for such a old game. It is very good story telling and inginous with is conclusion, the only things i didnt like its the little stealth section, the displacement of the background could trick you allowing you to be easily spot ,i had to retry couple of times myself due to such problem, they followed the right pathing but ,the camera and all, not good for it ,which i find interesting as there is a game over screen on this game. The maze in the forest was...very very confusing ,if you dont have visual memory to remember the pathing, i can pressume you can get lost in there for a bit. And that certain items cant be quite visible due to the blend in of the background itself ,it is quite hard and forces you to look more closely if you missed anything, in my opinion, but it does the job done in some way. I do have enjoyed the game myself regardless of such outcomes.

[h1]Dull & very boring[/h1] Yup, that's the main issue. Other things I can even let go but this is the main reason I just didn't bother playing it more than an hour or so. It's very dull and very very boring. [h3]Notes I made while playing. Would have been longer if I didn't quit[/h3] It is hard to make a detective game with infinite freedom and I have failed so many games do it completely wrong by being open-ended so you can make your own conclusions(Her Story), or being so linear that you have zero choice(Nobody wants to die). So I am willing to let go of many issues I might come across this game as long as there is some "detective" work involved. It's getting quite frustrating now. Jesus Christ! the thing was hidden horribly. Only when I started to randomly click things did I find it. I just keep moving from one person to next unable to "deduce" where to go next because the most logical thing doesn't work. Gate never explained how to get out o the room. Jesus Christ, I figured out the main issue with this game, it's just dull and very boring and I don't want to play it anymore.
Não irei estender muito, jogo datado, bugado, difícil de modo "injusto", gameplay de clique muito ruim, pistas difíceis de achar, é daquele tipo de jogo que vc vai passar mais raiva tentando entender alguma coisa do que descobrindo algo sobre o crime, comprei pq queria ter todos os sherlocks na steam e zerar todos, mas esse vou pular, além de ruim é muito chato
I don't know if this game worked fine on older computers. My issues with the game are more about the game-breaking bugs rather than technical. Save yourself a lot of frustration and a little bit of money.
Muy bueno, misterio interesante y atrapante, me ha gustado mucho
J'ai acheté le jeux car je fais toute la licence des Sherlock Holmes et j'ai était quand même bien surprise par la qualité de ces jeux sorties au début des années 2000 ! Pour être toute à fait honnête, je n'ai aucune nostalgie envers ces jeux étant née en 2007. Donc pour le coup mon sentiment n'ai pas biaisé par celle-ci. On va pas se mentir le jeux à BEAUCOUP de défaut. -Comment je ne peux pas parler de la maniabilité spectaculaire de ce jeux ! point and click avec caméra fixe... c'est littéralement des fois impraticable ! Il n'écoute pas ce que tu lui dit de faire.. et puis.. c'est sans compté les épreuves de vitesse dans un labyrinthe avec cette maniabilité pourris !!! Les dev ils avaient quoi en tête ? x) Je ne rage pas à la base, mais LA. J'ai jamais autant rager de ma vie :,) je fesais qu'insulter son gros cul vraisemblable à une beine a ordure. Et quand j'ai enfin réussis je peux vous dire que j'ai jamais était aussi soulagé x) puis après réflexion c'était rigolo donc je me suis bien amusé ! et puis la maniabilité pourris fait partis du charmeee de ce vieux jeux au fond. -Tu tournes en rond pour trouver des objets quasiment invisible en boucle... vraiment il faut jouer au jeux avec une soluce à coté. Car en plus la quasi totalité des objets a ramasser ce n'est pas que je ne les ai jamais trouvé. J'avais ESSAYE de clicker dessus et ça n'avait strictement rien fait :) donc faut faire attention. -ce point est vraiment spécifique car c'est à la toute toute fin du jeux. Tout le long du jeux il y a ce système : tu trouves des objets et parle aux gens. Puis tu les enregistre et cela t'aide à résoudre des questionnaires qui t'aide à l'enquête a la fin de chaque chapitre. C'est une superbe mécanique qui est absente dans l'opus suivant awakened. Cependant à la fin pour répondre aux questionnaires le plus grossss. Tu n'as plus accès à tes indices. Et c'est super dommage, surtout que à cette époque (comparé au plus récent jeux Sher) tu ne résous Q'UNE SEUL enquête. Ce que je trouve vraiment compliqué à suivre ! Un des meilleurs points du jeux c'est les voix quand même, je les adores !!!
It's absolutely dated compared to modern games, but it was still amusing. The quizzes were hard to piece together sometimes, especially the optional one; however, the game was still fun.
Controls are weird. Hopefully they do a remaster of this game
Honestly really, really good. I came to this off the back of the Hidden Object Titles and this is where Sherlock Holmes Frogwares Games really got their groove going. It introduces the voice actor we all know and love, it's got John Watson, it's got Baker Street - this is all the building blocks we know and love from Frogwares Later titles (Crime & Punishment, Devil's Daughter etc.) yes it's a little rough around the edges but this is an early title, if you can appreciate that and give it a little leeway it's got a truly interesting story and all the basic beats are here - an amazing sherlock game :)
