The Testament Of Sherlock Holmes is the latest game in the video game legacy that has spanned over ten years, and is the first to be released for both XBOX 360 and PlayStation. This game is written as close to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original imaginings as possible, paying homage to the legendary detective in the best way it can. Step in to Sherlock Holmes' shoes in this evolved adventure game that places you in the middle of an intricate storyline, and allows you to draw your own conclusions in this open investigation.
It's London, 1898. Holmes has just returned a set of priceless jewels to their rightful owner, but the owner finds the necklace to be a fake. Holmes is now the lead suspect, and the evidence quickly stacks up against him. He can't seem to prove his innocence or disprove the accusations, leading to London slowly turning against him, and even his faithful companion and friend Doctor Watson starting to doubt him. The evidence against Holmes is incriminating, who raises even more doubts as he evades Scotland Yard, and starts to behave suspiciously with destruction of evidence and late night roamings. It is your job now as Holmes to prove your innocence, and capture the real culprit before it's too late.
This incredibly realistic and fascinating world will truly immerse players, as this highly detailed investigation requires you to keep your wits about you at all times. You will get to utilise all of the famous detective's skills, and even hone some of your own. This investigation will challenge you to examine crime scenes with the utmost care and detail, collect clues and evidence as well as handle and inspect them thoroughly to truly understand what happened. The Testament Of Sherlock Holmes has also introduced a new and innovative deduction system which enables you to make full use of your detective repertoire in order to form your own conclusions from the evidence you have before you. There are even special questioning techniques that you possess, with which you can use to catch other characters off guard and force them to answer honestly. As it is an open investigation, you will be able to choose which leads to follow and which ones to ignore, ultimately drawing your own conclusion.
The Testament Of Sherlock Holmes is an incredibly detailed and innovative adventure game, practically redefining the genre as it takes you on a dark and twisted tale and shows you another side of the iconic detective Sherlock Holmes. This captivating and highly detailed adventure will pull you head first into the seedy underbelly of conspiracies and double crossings. Whether you get to the bottom of it all and discover the truth is up to you. Good luck. (Cat Emerson)

Good game, slow delivery
Good hidden-object and puzzle solver game, with great sound and voice acting. Allows play from a couple of perspectives; a point and click view (kind of 3rd person), and a 1st person view, plus an extra 3rd person perspective which is only available with microsofts xbox controller for PC, but doesn't seem that necessary.

The Testament Of Sherlock Holmes
The best Sherlock Holmes game that I have ever played. The story line is very well done. Once you start you don't want to stop, due to the puzzles and the clues that are quiet hard but it's really a must if you like mind puzzling games. This game can either be played with a mouse or a control pad. All items which are of importance are highlighted with a magnifying glass or a pointed hand which tells you you can interact with that item. Does need a lot of reading and solving problems to be able to get further and earn achievements. I 100% recommend this as the best Sherlock Holmes game ever made. So anybody who wants to play a good 5-6 hours of game play without looking for help, get this. It's really worth the money.
