Great stories, with a relaxed style of gameplay, that includes pouring over notes and newspapers. Great for a couple of people to work through a case over an evening or two. While comparing scores to Sherlocks is fun, they sometimes feel like a bit of an impossible benchmark.

An amazing tried and true format, but slightly tweaked to include some multi-case story arcs. If this is your first time playing Consulting Detective, buy the base game first. If you're simply looking for more Sherlock fun, buy this knowing that the quality is still there. Although I found the multi-case story arc a little repetitive after a while.

If you like games that involve a lot of thinking and reading, this is a pretty good one. It also gives you a great surprise when you read the whole conclusion of how Sherlock Holmes solved this crime
