Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened
When Dr. Watson brings news of the mysterious disappearance of a young Maori maid , Sherlock Holmes investigates, only to discover the first clues of a kidnapping. Holmes' theory will be proven correct when he discovers similar cases reported in the press and by certain interrogated individuals. There can be no doubt at all; only a powerful organisation could be capable of planning and enacting these kidnappings. The investigation and the discovery of macabre clues will show that behind this mysterious organisation hides a strange and disturbing sect, worshippers of the god Cthulhu, who border on the edge of reason.
A “Remastered Version” includes an all-new third-person, point-and-click control option, plus various other enhancements.

Good but not without hinderances (adressed in future games)
A good Sherlock Holmes game, with a well integrated and compelling Lovecraftian theme. However, there is too much reliance on items randomly lying somewhere usually with no hint you have to get them or where they can be. Too much blind underwhelming search....
