He will steal five objects of great value in five days from famous sites around London. Throughout the game, you will meet more than 40 typical characters from the Victorian era who you can interact with, while uncovering hundreds of clues and objects, which you will need to use, and combine to complete your investigation.

I wanted to love this game and I more or less enjoyed the prior adventure, Sherlock Holmes the Awakened. This particular adventure pits Holmes against a French master-thief, Arsene Lupin, who plans to regain the honor of his country by stealing a variety of English treasures.
The graphics are much as they were for the prior game but what is interesting is the detail given to the actual historic sights. I've been to the Tower of London and it was amusing to see it in the game modeled ... Read More

SH Nemesis deserves four stars. I thought this was a fun game, with a well written story and mostly well though puzzles. This was really a labor of love by the developers, play it and you will likely agree. Negatives: some puzzles were frankly too hard for anyone without too much free time, a walkthrough will be necessary to complete the game. Also some of the acting was horrific: Lestrade was horrible and I suspect the same geezer also acted for Lupin. Please use someone else next time. Overall I ... Read More

The latest installment in the Sherlock Holmes software mysteries does not fail to disappoint! This game is very long and in-depth, and provides quite a bit of gameplay. The puzzles are clever, and you're never left wondering what to do next. It is definitely challenging in parts, but the curiosity of what will happen next keeps you moving along.

I got about half way through. I really enjoyed it up until this one point. I had to keep figuring out the same kind of thing over and over again. The fun was totally drained out of the game at this point. It was a burden.
I never finished it. I have these games for my enjoyment...not for tedious tasks that drag on and on and on and on.
I will read all the reviews of the next Sherlock Holmes before I buy another one. This game became SO bad that I did not finish it.

Some of the puzzles are quite obscure in their reasoning. Sheer luck, rather than Sherlock is required in many scenerios.
