An Honest Review
generationofswine8 June 2021
Well it looks pretty...

... my wife is really the gammer in the family and her focus is mystery games. She devours them... I'll honestly pick up one or two games and just reply them, GTA, Red Dead Redemption, maybe a WWII FPS...

... and neither of us are interested in the whole Online thing, that seems like too much of a commitment.

Anyway... She got this one and from watching her play it, I was pretty disappointed. The mysteries she solved didn't tell much of a story in the end. As far as I could tell the game was lacking in little side missions...

... and then the combat, a few of the outcomes are determined on combat, and even though it only takes a couple of seconds, you don't really do it enough in the game to actually know what the game wants you to do... combat wise... so you fail because it's over-complicated and gives you zero practice.

And this is on top of Holmes mysteries that are lacking in story and clue discovery that kind of holds your hand.
