Sherlock: Hidden Object & Match-3 Mystery

I've played this game on other devices along with other G5 games and every time it's the same thing. It always has you clicking in 40 different places chasing after an arrow before you can play the game and I'm so damned sick of it and that cat Faustus I could scream. This time I was rounded into the cat's room four times in a row when the bloody arrow came and directed me back to the cat's room for the fifth time! Enough. Done!

Cant play co-op even tho its advertised as Co-op big sad :(

Отличная игра, которая успокаивает и поднимает настроение.

Бывает несколько дней сидиш на одной книге-локации и не как не может пройти.Слишком затянули игру стало тошно играть. Не рекомендую, лучше играйте в другие игры останетесь с позитивом от игр. Всё Слишком долго .Слишком трудно, проходить книги-локации и даже три в ряд больше не спасает , потому что там ещё труднее, почти неделю засела на Одной локации не могла пройти. Одним словом Муторная игра!

Прочитал комменты - удивился тому, что жалуются - чем дальше, тем сложнее. Так это же донатская дрянь с планшетов! Её не пройти - программа не даст, пока не заплатишь. А потом снова упрёшься, и снова нужно будет платить. И снова, и снова. Так что не покупайтесь на то, что якобы бесплатно. Бесплатной частью подсаживают, а потом бесплатность быстро, но плавно заканчивается и они доят деньги. Причём, постоянно. Так же и шантажисты делают.

Sherlock: Hidden Object & Match-3 Mystery takes one of fiction's most recognizable detectives and places him in a setting that feels both imaginative and familiar. Developed and published by G5 Entertainment AB, the game revolves around a mysterious force that is corrupting classic stories, causing literary worlds to unravel. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are tasked with investigating these disturbances by traveling through an ever-growing library of books, each containing its own secrets, puzzles, and characters. It is an interesting premise that elevates the game above a standard hidden object experience, giving players an overarching mystery to uncover as they progress. Gameplay is built around two primary mechanics: hidden object investigations and match-3 puzzles. Players are free to engage with either mode, which helps prevent repetition over extended play sessions. The hidden object sections are packed with detail, requiring a sharp eye to locate cleverly concealed items across numerous themed environments. Additional modifiers such as altered lighting conditions, mirrored layouts, and timed objectives add variety to what could otherwise become a predictable formula. The match-3 component, while more conventional, provides a welcome change of pace and integrates smoothly with the detective theme. One of the game's biggest strengths is the sheer amount of content available. There are numerous cases to solve, collectibles to obtain, and seasonal events that introduce limited-time challenges. The central Library hub expands steadily, encouraging players to return regularly to unlock new stories and continue the investigation. G5 Entertainment has long specialized in casual puzzle titles, and that experience is evident in how consistently the game introduces fresh objectives and rewards. The inclusion of offline functionality for much of the content is also a welcome feature, especially for players who prefer gaming without a constant internet connection. The presentation complements the gameplay well. Every scene is illustrated with a colorful, storybook-inspired aesthetic that captures the spirit of classic literature while maintaining an accessible and family-friendly atmosphere. Background music and ambient effects reinforce the sense of mystery without becoming distracting, creating a relaxing environment that suits both short sessions and extended play. The interface is easy to navigate, making it approachable even for newcomers to hidden object games. That said, the title's free-to-play design comes with some limitations. Energy systems, premium currency, and optional purchases are integrated into the experience, and players accustomed to traditional PC releases may find these elements difficult to ignore. Progress can occasionally feel slowed by monetization mechanics, reminding players that the game originated in the mobile market. Fortunately, none of these systems completely overshadow the gameplay, but they are present often enough to influence the overall experience. Sherlock: Hidden Object & Match-3 Mystery succeeds as a casual detective adventure that blends puzzle-solving with an inventive narrative concept. Its combination of hidden object gameplay, match-3 challenges, and literary storytelling gives it a unique identity among similar titles on Steam. While its free-to-play structure may not appeal to everyone, there is a substantial amount of content available for those willing to embrace its design philosophy. Fans of mystery games, hidden object adventures, and light puzzle experiences will find plenty to enjoy in this ongoing investigation. Rating: 6/10

披着福尔摩斯探案外壳，本质就是逼氪的手游移植作品。 前期尚可，到后期完全没法正常游玩。三消关卡难度恶意拉高，不买道具根本过不了关；寻物模式更是离谱，物品和背景底色几乎融为一体，不是考验眼力，是逼你花钱买提示道具，另外严重怀疑在机制算法上下了大功夫，前面找再快后期也给你基本无法找到的玩意（同一关打十几遍，以为记熟所有可能位置，总给你来个惊喜）。 不氪金基本寸步难行，大量关卡硬卡你，强制诱导内购。想踏踏实实玩寻物和三消的别碰，体验很差。
