The systems for uncovering clues and solving crimes are fabulous, making Sherlock Holmes Chapter One Frogwares' best game. But the crimes you investigate are sometimes very, very stupid.

Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One is an attempt by Frogwares to kick off a new more action-focused franchise with much younger protagonist, but if they hope to keep a captive audience around Frogwares ought to make the experience of stepping into Holmes’ shoes much more engaging and enjoyable than what’s presented in this game.

This new installment on the Sherlock series developed by Frogwares contains great ideas (the open world mechanics seems to be a step in the right direction) but also a poor technical implementation. Low framerates when exploring the city, low res textures in environments and NPCs and several other issues that are not at the expected level for a game based on the most iconic detective of all time.

Frogwares goes back to the early days of Sherlock Holmes as a detective with a very safe and simple prequel focused on freedom for the player.
