Ratings and reviews

10 out of 10!! This was a really good story!! (Great job Developers) 🩷✨️🩷✨️🩷 And I really loved how we can give our own thoughts when Sherlock would give us questions about the case. And I really liked that one part where we Investigate the crime and pick things to check. And the lore for each character/ personality. Was wonderful to see. I really enjoyed the game.

Good game to be honest. I honestly loved the plot and it excites me whenever the story moves to another event that is honestly so enjoyable. And the detective kinda stuff or whatever it's called is so fun in my opinion. I'd wish for you guys to add that to another game that you'll soon make.

Loves the Games, especially this one, something I haven't seen much. I haven't been here long, but I sure have played enough to see how far the games have come, it's outstanding, and I'm proud to play games by Genius Inc. 😆 100% recommend to anyone unsure, just take a look at their games, and you'll find something for you 😁
