Dark crimes, perpetrated by The Black Blade, have thrown London into terror. Scotland Yard has failed to find the murderer, but you can help identify him.
Play as Detective Holmes or Dr. Watson, tracking down clues, interviewing witnesses and using your deductive skills. Make the right choices to solve these three investigations, because you are the hero!
Sherlock Holmes: Darkness over London is a comic combined with a game, one title in a series subtitled "The comic in which you are the hero". You embody a character in a immersive story in which your choices guide your progress. You have a character sheet akin to those used in role-playing games that tracks your possessions, your special abilities, your coins, and your victory points. In general, gameplay consists in following the comic's panels — which contain clues, riddles and traps — and making choices about where to go and what to do, while using your visual perception to collect clues and be smart enough to resolve the riddles. As in any game, you can lose — sometimes really badly!
