I have to say that Frogwares have done it again!

Something I always love about storylines in games and in the Sherlock Holmes games in particular, ís how things connect, how they made sense and this game defínitely had that. The investigations never were boring and it was very fun to think out of situations and such, everything made perfect sense. The streets felt alive with the realistic recreations of Whitechapel, the lights and sky, the streets, the surrondings, the environment, the excitement, the foul stench of death, the rich people, the poor people drinking alcohol and lying at the street, everything was great.

The new features to help investigation, like the deduction board, timelines, possible motives and the recreation of the crimes were simply brilliant features, I hope to see more of that. Especially liked how Watson asked the questions near the end for Sherlock to explain everything in great detail on how and why everything happened, brilliant as well. The game recreates the earlier excitement and fun of playing the other Sherlock Holmes games, but improved.

The game in overall was good, the storyline was very interesting and the graphics, sounds and surrondings were nicely made, just like any other Sherlock Holmes game Frogwares has made. The title however, was a bit disappointing to me, I had expected them to get a much better title to correspond with the story. The image of the game itself could have also been more appealing to make, and the story could have used some more action situations to really get your excitement up but, all in all, it was a really nice recreation of the actual case in real life about Jack the Ripper.
