Description
London, 1887. The Crown Jewels have been stolen — and only Sherlock Holmes (with a bit of help from you, as Dr. Watson) can recover them before the Queen’s Jubilee!
In Sherlock: The Riddle of the Crown Jewels, Infocom brings Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s world to life in a thrilling interactive mystery across gaslit streets, foggy docks, and secret chambers beneath London.
Gather clues, question suspects, and follow the trail of deception before time runs out and scandal rocks the Empire.
