Rated 5 out of 5 by jmparke25 from Great Game I played this game several years ago and really liked it but didn't leave a review. I just replayed it, and again enjoyed it so much that this time I am going to write a review. The old style ray-traced graphics are a bit clunky but you quickly get used to them, and once you get into it the story line is awesome. Warning, this is not a game for young children. Some of the scenes are gory, and the plot may be disturbing for those with over-active imaginations. The play length is outstanding. There are 5 chapters.

Sherlock Series 3 For Macbook

One is fairly short, but the other four are each equivalent to a lot of other, shorter games that I have played. Most of the puzzles are challenging but doable if you pay attention to your notes and documents. A few are extremely difficult though, so unless you are a glutton for punishment you will probably want to consult the walkthrough for these.

For me, the best news about the game was the lack of HOGs. I am tired of them, and there was not a single one in the whole game. Rated 5 out of 5 by lillika from AMAZING! Another SH 360 masterpiece! This time you get to travel to some very interesting locations! The chase scene is just awesome!

Once again, Intelligent, interesting, at times educational storyline, beautiful graphics, great games. Think and deduct for days!

I sincerely hope time incredibly talented team continues to create these exceptional, 5 star games! One thing I didn't care for was the demise of the unarmed man on the swamp island, and no expressions of remorse.

Forgiven, because otherwise Sherlock Holmes; The Awakened, is perfection! Rated 5 out of 5 by farfalla2 from Outstanding I am a seasoned adventure gamer and this is up there with Syberia. At first I was skeptical about the first person angle but as I used it more it became fantastic and made you feel like you were really immersed in the story. The graphics were somewhat outdated but still incredible. This definitely blows those lame HOGs right out of the water. A word of warning, this contains very graphic violence and disturbing images. Disturbing content and storyline overall, actually.

Some of the puzzles were just frustrating instead of fun, just saying. I will say I was dissatisfied with the ending and felt like it wasn't explained very well.

I think I got most of it, but Holmes' inflated diction can be somewhat difficult to sift through. I'm not stupid, but for pete's sake can he talk in normal everyday words once in a while? I wish all adventure games in the future would model after this one. Total and complete immersion. Make sure you have a nice long day to do this game because you won't want to step away until the end. Rated 5 out of 5 by Sergeij from Edge-Of-Seat Excitement In This Holmes Thriller!

This was a very exciting and foreboding Sherlock Holmes outing. Holmes and Watson travel from England to Switzerland to the New Orleans swamps, replete with man-eating alligators, and to Scotland, to solve this 'otherworld' thriller, which ends up in a lighthouse full of 'the undead.' The puzzles were devilishly difficult at times, while the graphics, sound, and ambience were all excellent. My only complaint was that the navigation was quite clumsy throughout much of the game. I recommend this game only to those who are willing to use their heads, and who have a lot of patience, as there is copious, but needed, dialogue, notes, and reports. Rated 5 out of 5 by cyclonetracey65 from You will be AWAKENED!!

There are 3 major things you need to know about this 'game'. 1) It is not for children!! 2) It is extremely graphic, so if you are the least bit squimish do not bother. 3)It is more like an interactive Sherlock Holmes movie than a game and if you suffer vertigo or motion sickness, again it is not for you, as most of it still has to be played in the 1st person. Other than that it is awesome!!, Graphics are a little clunky, but you get used to that fairly quickly. You have to pay attention to this game, read the documents provided to you or you will not be able to complete the quizzes along the way. It is not a mindless HOG, this is a true Sherlock Holmes mind bender and if you allow yourself to be drawn into it you are in for a truly awesome ride.

It took me what seemed like 12 hours of game play, so it is a bargain for length of time, and I learnt a very important thing, save the game habitually about every 10 min or you run the risk of getting yourself killed off and having to replay your entire session, yes that happened to me, lol. Some people have complained that the quizzes are too hard, they aren't if you are paying attention!! And the puzzles are quite easy. You just have to become Sherlock and look at everything, leave no stone unturned!!!
