The Sherlock Holmes series returns with this updated version of The Awakened, which brings a whole new dimension to the original title developed by Frogwares. The game puts the player into an investigation of the Cthulhu Mythos - as imagined by Father of modern horror, H.P. Lovecraft.

Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 18 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

An enjoyable adventure with Holmes and Watson. Generally good challenges although some a bit obscure. Good hint system.
The only other Sherlock game that I’ve played before this one was The Secret of the Silver Earring (SoSE). And I have to say this one was a small disappointment. You don’t do much investigating. You only get 4-5 questions during the whole game that you have to answer correctly. The rest are all puzzles which you can figure out by brute forcing it if you don’t know the answer. The story is also not as good as the SoSE. Way too much sci-fi and horror that it becomes ridiculous at times. There are a neat features. Like the changing between 1st and 3rd person views. The maps are bigger, and you can explore more. Movement is vastly improved. And if you hold down space, it will show you what you can click, meaning it gives you a clue in case you missed something. I would still recommend it, if you are a Sherlock fan. Otherwise it’s very meh imo.

ну по сути неплохой детективчик, еще и переплели сюжет с культом ктулху
Kriegt von mir keine uneingeschränkte Empfehlung, aber einen Daumen nach oben. Man sollte kein Problem mit dem Anblick verstümmelter Leichen haben. Einmal ist mir das Spiel abgestürzt und ich musste sehr viel wiederholen, Speichern ist also wirklich wichtig. Das Hilfesystem hat mir an allen Stellen an denen es von Nöten war geholfen. Dass man über die Leertaste Hotspots anzeigen lassen kann war eine große Unterstützung, dass man in diese aber beinahe hineinkriechen muss um sie zu aktivieren war nervig. Vielleicht wäre es einfacher gewesen nicht in der Egoperspektive zu spielen, wer weiß...
Good but very glitchy in some of the worst ways. I highly suggest playing the Awakened remake over this. It is the better version of the game.
So here's the thing, there's a better version of this game out right now so I can't recommend this one anymore, but there's also some really really bad issues here in this game. My game stopped saving. It just wouldn't let me save and so it forced me to plow forwards and hope I didn't encounter anything game-breaking or soft-locking. Get the new version. This is important for posterity, it shows Frogwares early work and development and it's fun to contrast between them but just... brace yourself, even as a fan of Sherlock this is a tough slog.
Отличная игра чтоб поработать мозгами и логикой
Das ist definitiv der schlechteste Teil der Reihe, den ich bisher gespielt habe. Die Rätsel sind teilweise undurchsichtig, bei Eingaben wird zwar ein ä auf der Bildschirmtastatur angeboten, man muss aber trotzdem ae schreiben. Die Story selbst ist... gut gemeint vielleicht, aber irgendwie nichts halbes und nichts ganzes. Spielt lieber Nemesis oder vs. Jack the Ripper.
spoko
Ich hatte am Anfang ja keine Ahnung in welche Richtung sich dieser Teil entwickeln würde! Bis auf zwei, drei Rätsel welche wirklich hart zu meistern waren, ein echter Holmes Klassiker. Habe es in nicht ganz 12 Stunden durchgespielt und es hat mir sehr gefallen! Abgesehen von der Verfolgungsjagd am Hafen, wo man dem Taschendieb hinterlaufen musste. Diese Szene war so lächerlich absurd getaktet, dass es schon wieder lustig war :D
