📖 About This Game

Victoria Cake is in danger! Will it be you, Wiggins, Sherlock Holmes' stealthy sidekick, who will cause her disappearance? Or will you, Mrs. Hudson, landlady of 221B, prevent her disappearance? In a SherBlock, you can play as many as two protagonists! Choose sides, flip the block and play! The rules are very simple and are all contained on the first page. We will begin our adventure as Wiggins whose acumen was rated a whopping 5 pipes by Sherlock Holmes. As we progress through the adventure this number will eventually increase or decrease based on our choices. As for Wiggins, the final rating will depend on the number of pipes in our possession. On some pages of the work then we will find portions of text written in red. At that time we may decide to flip the game to play the adventure as Mrs. Hudson. We will experience the story from the point of view of the two main characters, and it will be up to us to decide who to lead to victory. Mrs. Hudson's final evaluation will be decidedly different from Wiggins'. The plot is simple and a run of the game takes about 10 minutes. However, the fact that it is replayable several times to discover the various possible scenarios, encounters and endings is definitely a plus. Excellent introduction to this genre of games, suitable for even the littlest ones (but not only) that is set to fill all that downtime you have during the day: pick up the pad and read.
