感谢汉化 真真围观了一把俩小老头的幸福退休生活 游戏体量不大 解密也不算太难 主打一个休闲挂 配音真的好令人惊喜 听到声音的那一瞬间omg眼泪都要掉下来了… 交互点也特别多 基本啥都能戳两下 准备进行无厘头行动时老福的吐槽也很好玩 而且还有meta元素 看得人会心一笑 所有人都很萌!为了野餐活动满世界跑的老福 [spoiler] 看似打盹实则跟踪了全程 [/spoiler]的花生 仍旧当引路人以及日常被弟坑的哥酱 还有各种小动物们...唉真好啊 结尾互相吐露心声那段看得我眼睛栓栓的 俩小老头好好过吧直到死亡将你们分开TT 可惜的是汉化没办法正常截图哎真的有好多地方都想截下来慢慢品味的>< 希望所有福尔摩斯粉丝都能来玩这一部作品 太幸福了我一直在流泪...
I usually try to see the best in every game, especially indie productions, but this one falls short in far too many areas, and I can’t in good faith recommend it when there’s so much better available. It ultimately boils down to Sherlockian fan‑fiction with some “romance” options between Holmes and Watson, if that’s your thing. The game prides itself on a cute pixel‑art style and cozy gameplay, but what I saw was rougher than usual pixel art, not as polished as it could have been, and with little attention to details, plus a general lack of puzzles, interactive hotspots, locations, and things to do. I honestly have no idea why “cozy” is even in the game description. Add to that a few bugs, such as disappearing hotspots. The game lasts about three hours, but half of that is due to its snail pace: this old Sherlock walks very slowly with a cane, and navigating the six total locations the game consists of feels like you’re aging alongside him, pixel step after pixel step. If I had to sum up the entire game in one word, it would be “lazy,” not “cozy.” As a fan of Sherlock Holmes canon, this was an utter disappointment. Not a fan of Sherlock Holmes? Then the game gives you very little reason to pick it up at all. The voice acting is professional and stellar, which only makes the contrast with everything else more jarring. After all, what’s a fantastic voice without an interesting story? FOR THIS AND MORE ADVENTURE GAMES My Steam Curator Page: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/43938467-TheGamingMom/

I’ve watched, read, and played a LOT of Sherlock Holmes adaptations in my life, and this game is hands down my favourite of them all. The art is beautiful, the gameplay engaging, the acting spectacular, the story impossibly heartfelt and tender, and the love and respect for the canon material shines through so clearly. it has mysteries. it has adorable creatures. It has VIOLET HUNTER!!! It is in turns melancholy, hopeful, and hilarious, and always so deeply comforting and full of love. A real love story, in every sense of the word. I can't recommend it highly enough, especially to fans of the original series <3
I love yaoi, and i geniuelly squealed when i first finished this game for the first time, holmes and watson are so adorable, the game is awesome too obviously, if you want to relax or make holmes talk to boots, doors yada yada its a perfect fit for you, i more than recommend 🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤
Хоть где-то джонлоки есть
必玩 1.推理 2.剧情 3.调查 4.复古 5.像素 [h3]通关这个游戏后我对老年充满了信心[/h3] 《The Beekeeper's Picnic养蜂人的野餐》是个粉丝向的游戏,大概讲了福尔摩斯和华生老了之后,买下了乡间养蜂人居所养老时产生的冒险破案故事。去年刚发售的时候没有中文,而且这个游戏的英文难度略高,我当时玩了一阵子,感觉自己的英语底子不够无障碍流畅游玩,必须得时不时查词典。还好 [b]今年有位大佬做了汉化 [/b],翻译的非常平滑舒服,还得到了官方许可发布,好人一生平安啊! 不管你是不是LGBT,不管你心中的福尔摩斯和华生到底是啥关系, [b]这个游戏带来的情感体验都非常的真挚 [/b],虽然福和华都岁数很大了,但法拉利老了也还是法拉利。整个游戏并不是很长,复古感的像素画面非常好看,游戏的配音是重大加分项,福华俩人的对话听起来和电视剧里的没啥区别,游戏的BGM也轻松惬意,我家哈基米还特地跑到跟前来就着BGM呼呼大睡。游戏里的大案子包含小案子,没有可怕的跳脸,只推理,不惊悚。大案子涉及[spoiler]伦敦大英博物馆文物被盗案件[/spoiler],小案子都是家长里短,比方说[spoiler]为了给华生办野餐到处找食物和花、破解小男孩的伪造凶杀案、伪装成作家去参加乡村评选、帮小孩找丢失的猫什么的。[/spoiler] [b]然而我遇到了重大困难 [/b],至今未解决。游戏的成就中有一个[spoiler]挖出水豚标本送给小姑娘[/spoiler],我每次到这个地方就做不了这个任务,系统总提示我先把别的任务完成,我看了大佬写的攻略,为了这个事前后开了4个档,用了各种办法,各种回档,然而还是都失败。希望大家都来玩玩这个游戏,找到破解办法了之后教教我!
i love you old man yaoi. this brings a tear to my eyes
A nice, breezy little game. Nothing fancy. Just a few hours with Holmes and Watson in the English countryside.
AND THE GAYS KEEP WINNING LETS GOOOOOOOOOO
非常期待的一款游戏....从在QQ那看到截图的时候我就知道我会下载这款游戏。我本来不玩steam的,为了这款游戏特地下载了steam。我本来是嗑福华的,玩完这款游戏之后一直想哭。我看不懂英语,照着b站上博主的过程慢慢玩完的,一款特别特别用心的游戏,我一直在哭。如果不是特别特别了解原著是做不出这款游戏的,谢谢开发者愿意花这么多时间圆我一个福华梦,而且在游戏里其他角色也特别有意思,特别特别立体,我真的好感动,福华你们99好不好....真的真的很喜欢这种细水长流的感觉,老福和花生医生都是很可爱很可爱的人啊....
