Illogical and unrealistic game story, irrelevant puzzles, none flexible game play. Frogwares has spoiled the good name of Holmes.

Silver earring was a great success, but sadly they lost their way in the middle by making the awakened and Arsene Lupin. I hope they stop spoiling down the good name of Sherlock Holmes, with such idiotic games, and start to listen to the voice of gamers. Trying to compare Holmes with Arsene Lupin or others is not a good idea, because they have different characters.

I mean common, It's not a wrestling!

All that gamers want, is a realistic Detective game based on logical conclusions, a realistic story line, and a flexible game environment.

Graphic is only one item of realism, not all of it. There are many other items that counts; e.g. when there are dozens of ropes, all around the port, why the player must only and only take the rope on the sandbags? and there are many other examples such as this throughout the game.

In my opinion,the worst part of the game is where the servant (Davy) writes a hundred (maybe more) different numbers in order on the blackboard, which he memorized from a piece of paper in a challenge of life and death; This part is a funny joke.

Overall this title is very disappointing.
