Sherlock Holmes: The Mystery of the Persian Carpet

Pixel Hunting game of ye olden days. Why did I even buy this?

No realmente no puedo recomendarlo, aunque en su tiempo seguro fue exitoso. Es un juego que no ha envejecido bien, la búsqueda de items es dificultosa porque no se ven, los gráficos son pequeños y no se diferencian los objetos, hay que utilizar las pistas para poder terminarlo, los rompecabezas estan bien, pero realmente, es un juego muy olvidable.

Point & click with some puzzles. The game is a bit outdated. No major bugs while playing. Some clues are too hard to see, but there is an in-game hint system even in the hardest difficulty that can help in these cases. It took me 3h. I don't recommend purchasing it at full price. Buy it with a good discount if you like old point & click games and the Sherlock Holmes cases

Keyif almak umuduyla yüklemiştim açıkçası "Basit Eğlence" türündeki bir oyunun keyifli olması gerekirdi yani imkansız derecede zorlamadan makul bir zorluk seviyesi sunmalıydı. İki önemli sorun oyunu başkalarına tavsiye etmeme engel oluyor bunlardan ilki ve en can sıkıcı olanı bulmamız gereken pek çok nesnenin aşırı derecede zor bulunması. Bazıları çok küçük oldukları için diğerleri ise arka planla bütünleştikleri için fark edilmeleri güç. O nesneleri bulabilmek adına sınırlı sayıdaki ve yenilenemeyen ipuçlarımın çoğunu kullanmak zorunda kaldım. Benim için oyundan soğutan bir diğer unsur ise bulmacaların ve çıkarım tahtasının zorluk derecesiydi. Yönergeler belirsiz ve eksikti bu yüzden çoğu zaman tam olarak ne yapmam gerektiğini anlamakta güçlük çektim. İpuçlarını yenilemenin bir yolu olsaydı oyun daha keyifli olabilirdi ancak mevcut haliyle tüm ipuçlarımı tükettiğim ve çıkarım tahtasını nasıl tamamlayacağımı çözemediğim için oyunun ortasında pes etmek zorunda kaldım.

I have think this game will be some boring old 1st made Sherlock Holmes game, but no this game blew my expectations, this is another masterpiece from Sherlock Holmes franchise, recommended to be played, don't be scared like me that it weights less, the graphics are fine and puzzles are challenging. In short enjoy your play!

I know this game is old, but I still can’t find any justification for its poor design. The riddles feel like they exist only for the sake of having riddles. The difficulty level is wildly inconsistent, and some solutions are based purely on luck rather than logic. I think the developers were aware of this, because they added the option to simply skip puzzles — no hints, no explanations, just skip. That alone says a lot about how broken some of these mechanics are. I bought this game in a bundle for a very low price, but honestly, it wasn’t worth it. I managed to finish it only by having multiple walkthroughs open at the same time. And by the way, there aren’t many of them online, probably because very few people have the patience needed to solve these frustrating puzzles. Don’t be fooled by my playtime either, I didn’t enjoy it. I got fed up during one of the deductions, went for a walk, and forgot to turn off the damn game.

[h1] Not the best example of a Sherlock Holmes game [/h1] Sherlock and his buddy Watson have a ton of games available, the great majority of them are very nice, but this one kind of sucks a bit. This is a very simple puzzle/investigation game where you basically go through levels and on each level investigate one or more places in order to find hidden items. In those places you'll also have to solve puzzles to obtain some of the items. One of the problems is that some items are really difficult to spot, remember, it's 2008 and the image quality is not top tier yet, but golly, it's not a very pleasant gameplay. The puzzles are ok, I'm a brainlet and could solve more than a half of them without skipping, just give it a little time and that's it. And finally, the deduction process, some stuff are pretty obvious and some are just a pain to find, trial and error is almost a must. TLDR: there are better Sherlock games, this one I don't think is a good one to spend your hard earned money on, 4/10.

Inesperadamente Bueno. 7.5/10 Solo quería comenzar la saga desde sus inicios y no tenia expectativas algunas sobre este juego, pero realmente me sorprendió para bien.. y para mal. Es una mini-historia/caso de homicidio el cual está bien, no es tan corto y da para separar en varios niveles (entretiene bastante). - Aprovecharlo en Oferta - Posee una Buena Dificultad, sacando algunos puzzles básicos, la complejidad general es moderada/alta. Y si padeces miopía o visión escasa, esa dificultad se eleva a la hora de encontrar los objetos/pistas interminables sin poder hacer zoom ni nada). Unos Escenarios bien desarrollados y bastantes irregulares/revueltos, lo que lo hace entretenido de jugar, sobre todo el escenario propio con el laboratorio y pizarra para las deducciones. La jugabilidad es entretenida e intuitiva, con un mini tutorial inicial que deja una buena base para manejarse solo. Las ayudas y pistas que brinda están bien limitadas por nivel, es importante gestionarlas bien por las dudas (ayudan mucho con los objetos imperceptibles o escondidos). Y Sorpresivamente todo el juego esta disponible para jugarlo en español, eso es un buen punto a favor.
