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!

I encourage anyone to play and not be entertained! I actually lost all my levels, I was at the top and lost all of it bc my phone was hacked so I had to start over! Funny thing is I couldn't wait to download and start again. Challenging levels, great story line and best of all you have choices which way you want to play! The only downside is it takes awhile to get to a new room to play in. But I love playing and I know you will also! Come join us you won't regret it ❤️

This app is completely unusable. It freezes immediately after launching and frequently crashes. Sometimes it even causes my phone to restart. I'm concerned it's harming my device. Since I never linked an email or created an account, I can't safely reinstall the app because uninstalling it would erase all of my game progress. Please help me resolve this issue without losing my progress.

Love the concept, great graphics. Maybe a little too good, objects are difficult to find, too many per scene & not enough time to search. I use an average of 3 tools per scene, no tools can be purchased with coins. I have 1,982,500 coins that I can only use to unlock new scenes. I don't play as much as I would, it's too frustrating. Update, 5/6/26 I just used 11 watches, 3 magnifying glasses, and a compass to complete a level 5 scene. Absolutely ridiculous.

Thank you for your review, Maggie! We aim to make Sherlock challenging, but certainly not frustrating for players. We highly appreciate your feedback and will continue improving the game! As for the coins, you can purchase Noble Lady's Hand Fan and Anti-Bomb tools, Order of Merit, and Order of the Bath talismans in the game shop.
