Armed with these, you are presented with a crime to solve and have the freedom to choose how you go about it. When you are ready, you can go to the back page of the casebook to answer a range of questions. The mechanics of the gameplay are therefore very simple and effortless to learn, but the challenge is often high. You can play solo or in any sized group.There is a scoring system, based on your ability to answer the questions correctly while visiting as few locations as possible. However, I think the game is best enjoyed without worrying about it. Exploring London, going down rabbit holes, and being tricked by inevitable red herrings is more enjoyable for me than trying to "beat" Sherlock's score (which, let's face it, is rather a fool's errand). It seems a shame to have all this narrative material and then try to ignore as much of it as possible for a high score. But players are free to play however they like, so I don't really consider it a problem.There's ten cases in the box. A couple didn't quite grab me, but on the whole they're great and well-written. While replayability isn't really possible (maybe many years later?), there are dozens more free fan-written cases available online to get more mileage out of your purchase.Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Favorite Mystery Game! *by on Reviewed in the United States January 24, 2026* Love this game! We enjoy playing as a family as it is easy to cooperatively approach the gameplay. It plays out like a more text based escape room/mystery novel and does require a significant amount of reading. The individual mysteries generally take around 1.5-2 hours depending on the speed of your reading and desire to succeed with minimal hints and each module builds upon the one before it so make sure to do things in the right order. Depending on your memory there isn't a high likelihood of "replayablity," but it's a great game to share with friends after you've finished. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting game for 2+ *by on Reviewed in the United States April 30, 2025* Interesting game. Takes a little getting used to the thought process it wants you to use -- it is helpful if you have read the Holmes stories to understand the style of thinking/inference. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective - The Thames Murders & Other Cases Board Game - Captivating Mystery Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 14+, 1-8 Players, 90 Min Playtime, Made by Space Cowboys - Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective - Jack the Ripper & West End Adventures Board Game - Captivating Mystery Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 14+, 1-8 Players, 90 Min Playtime, Made by Space Cowboys - Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective - The Baker Street Irregulars Board Game - Captivating Mystery Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 14+, 1-8 Players, 90 Min Playtime, Made by Space Cowboys --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/81237461-asmodee-sherlock-holmes-consulting-detective-the-thames-murders-and-other](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/81237461-asmodee-sherlock-holmes-consulting-detective-the-thames-murders-and-other) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-09-05*
