Sherlock Holmes: The Beginning
At Baker Street, a renowned novelist has been poisoned. The evidence suggests suicide, but a coded note leads Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson to suspect murder. Players take the role of Dr. Watson in a comic-based investigation where choices determine the course of the story. They follow panels, decide where to go and what to examine, collect clues, solve riddles, and avoid traps. A character sheet tracks possessions, abilities, coins, and victory points throughout the case.
