Sherlock Holmes: The Devilâs Daughter, the eighth game in the series, is an incredible adventure game with unique gameplay blending investigation, action and exploration for an extraordinary experience that will test the limits of players' nerves and intelligence. Playing as the great detective, they will have to track down evil in the darkest corners of London and the human spirit, freely exploring several neighbourhoods in the city in search of clues and suspects while they untangle a web of intrigue leading to the final stunning revelation.
Sherlock Holmes The Devils Daughter is also available on PS4 & XBox One.
Detective work works, but needless action elements make this worst Sherlock so far. [Aug 2016]
Shelock Holmes : The Devil's Daughter is a nice step to evolve the IP into something more substantial. Conservative enough to satisfy the fans, and new enough to draw in young players.
Sherlock Holmes: The Devilâs Daughter is another solid entry into this long-running franchise.
To uncover the truth, youâll have to possess not only deductive skills, but a considerable patience as well: puzzles âpull a lever, push a button, try to figure out what happenedâ and chase sequences are unreasonably long. Even though youâd think that a game about Sherlock would have you play as Sherlock, not as Indiana Jones wannabe. [Issue#211, p.73]
Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter is an uneven game. Making Sherlock younger and having him take part in action scenes was a good idea but the execution is poor at best. Still there are some excellent mini-games, interesting investigation and a truly great deduction board. If only the game handled it's characters better it would be glorious. The end result is ok but the potential is far from being fully realized.
Sherlock took a few long steps away from the adventure toward the action gaming again. Although someone might actually like this change, fans of the original game wonât be satisfied. [Issue#265]
Three weak cases, one decent, and a lackluster finale make Sherlock Holmes: The Devil's Daughter a marked step back from its predecessor.
