Beyond Baker Street

Beyond Baker Street is a board game for 2–4 players. It plays in 30 minutes and is meant for ages 10 and up. Ludoya players call it best with 4. It is rated 6.8 out of 10 by 11 Ludoya reviewers.

Work together to solve a heinous crime by identifying the suspect, motive, and opportunity. Players hold hidden clue cards that only their teammates can see, then communicate to deduce their own evidence and eliminate dead leads. Each turn, players assist another detective, investigate the crime scene, confirm evidence, eliminate dead leads, or pursue new leads. Gather enough evidence to make a conviction before Sherlock Holmes solves the case.

  • Benjamín Amorín7.0

    Very funny Cooperative Game with kind of Hanabi mechanics with a Sherlock Holmes theme. I think that's great to use this mechanic for this kind of game. Really good.

  • Kush6.5

    Hanabi with a bit of a theme. Great fun. Too short perhaps as 2p.

  • Mitchell C5.9

    An enjoyable Hanabi-like experience with a good theme.
