Description
If you are one for tackling tough crimes and taking on intense murder mysteries, then you have found your dream game. Sherlock Holmes: The Thames Murders is not your average board game. In this game you will need to walk in the shoes of the top detectives to trace the threads of evidence through the eerie streets of nineteenth century London. Including ten individual cases, you will never guess what you will be faced with next…
Each player will be a member of the Baker Street Regulars, the unofficial gang that aids Sherlock Holmes towards solving his jaw-dropping mysteries. With each case, players will take turns to become the lead investigator, whilst this game is cooperative and played as a group, the lead investigator makes the decisions for the next action. This game contains an incredible map of London and newspapers for every case which are filled with sly and witty jokes. Each case is presented to keep you fully engaged and draw you in with every word.
To finish the game, you must correctly answer the questions and aim to receive 100 points or more, however the main part of the challenge is to outsmart Sherlock Holmes himself, and that will not be easy!
