    A strong joining of fictional Holmes flair with the Ripper’s horrific, real-life murder spree makes for some good storytelling and detective-driven adventuring. Some of the other additions help deepen the experience, while others would have best been left on the cutting room floor. Without being mind-blowing or particularly amazing in any regard, Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper is a generally good entry in the series. Read more

    : Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper is a solid, well-crafted tale about two British icons, one heroic and one villainous, and their fictional clash in Victorian England that’s well worth checking out if you can look past a few problems. The story is strong, the presentation is quite nice, and the gameplay is user-friendly for both fans and neophytes to understand. Read more

    The previous Sherlock outing from Frogwares saw the good Mr. Holmes lock wits with a fellow literary creation from across the channel. A debonair gentleman thief couldn’t be more different than the protagonist in this, the fifth Sherlock Holmes adventure from this development house. Read more
