Gameplay

The game presents the player with three different mysteries to solve. It uses live actors and sets as the player assumes the role of veteran detective Sherlock Holmes, assisted by his longtime partner Dr. Watson, trying to collect clues by visiting various locations, questioning witnesses and suspects, and reading the included mock London newspapers.

The player controls Holmes’ iconic smoking pipe like a mouse cursor and can move it with the D-Pad and confirm a selection with . The three cases can be played in any order. The game can be saved to and resumed from the console’s internal memory.

At the beginning of each case, a full-motion video clip depicts Holmes and Watson meeting a client and learning a few background clues about the case. Then the player must choose a particular location or person from the directory or notebook to visit, read the London newspapers for clues, or ask one of the young “Baker Street Irregulars” to investigate. The object of each case is to gather enough clues in the lowest number of visits possible, then go before a judge who then asks the player to answer the important questions about the case. If the player is successful, Dr. Watson reveals the player’s score, based on the number of visits it took to solve the case. The player can view a video clip set in Holmes’ and Watson’s study that reviews the events that transpired.

Informants

Besides witnesses and suspects, there are several general informants and locations that can be visited to provide additional expertise. Visiting an informant is sometimes necessary to provide a clue that leads to solving the mystery.

• Sir Jasper Meek: A medical examiner who can be consulted for his technical analysis of cadavers.
• H.R. Murray: A chemist who can apply forensics to examine physical evidence.
• Disraeli O’Brian: The head clerk of the Office of Records, who can provide legal records.
• Langdale Pike: A gossip columnist who covers London’s social scene and knows all of the city’s scandalous gossip.
• Porky Shinwell: A former prisoner and the proprietor of the Raven and Rat Inn who stays connected to underworld dealings through his establishment’s seedy patrons.
• London Library: A large library full of valuable reference materials.
• Scotland Yard: The city’s police headquarters where Inspector Lestrade can aid with the investigation.
