About this game

Join the legendary detective Sherlock Holmes in his unbelievable new investigations!

Something wicked is going on in the worlds of well-known books – their plots are changing, with the main characters being defeated while the villains prevail. The magic of literature is at work here, and this magic is real! Now, The Hound of the Baskervilles, Alice in Wonderland, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, and many other classic novels are not at all like you remember them.

Help Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson restore the original plots of the books and deliver justice by solving tricky match-3 puzzles or unraveling hidden object scenes, and complete thrilling quests while searching for the reasons and patterns behind the events. These world-renowned stories helped to shape the history of mankind, so they carry enormous power – and whoever can control that power, will be able to rule the universe. Make sure it falls in the right hands!

Set off on an exciting detective adventure, solve ingenious puzzles and investigate crimes without delay before the real world turns upside down too!

Love the game. I like that it is based on Sherlock and other great stories. However, do NOT make any purchases. If you don't you can earn jewels by watching adds. It feels slow but works. I made one purchase of 100 jewels for 99 cents. Lost all possibility of earning them by watching ads. I refuse to make any more purchases. it has been 4 months.

Thank you for the review, Heidi! This feature was not designed to be constantly available in the game. We hope that you will be able to enjoy it again soon!

What I love: 1. Sherlock and Watson exploring the worlds of other books to solve mysteries. 2. Option to play match 3 or explore the scene. 3. Individual soundscapes for each location. 4. Rich colours and design. What I don't love: 1. When I zoom in on a scene it gets blurry. I play another G5 game, Hidden City, on the same device and the graphics are far sharper. The fuzziness makes it less immersive and very hard to find smaller objects, especially in spot the difference mode. Hence 3 stars.

Such a fun, exasperating, satisfying game! However, lately, the ads we have to watch to get gems are getting lengthier - a minute or more - and some of them are surveys that will not let me opt out of answering. This is where I am likely to delete this game that I've loved for several years. IF YOU PERSIST WITH THESE KINDS OF ADS, I will absolutely delete the game and never look back. Are you sure you want to alienate a faithful player? You've dropped from 5 stars to 2.
