Description
Been playing Sherlock・Hidden Object Mystery for a couple months now. It’s basically a hidden object game where you help Sherlock Holmes solve all sorts of mysteries. There’s this whole thing where classic books are having their plots changed and you gotta restore them to the original stories. Sounds kinda weird but it works really well.
Here’s what you do: you search through scenes to find hidden objects, solve match-3 puzzles, and complete quests to unravel the mystery. There’s also a bunch of different books and stories you can explore, which is pretty cool. And the graphics are really nice – it all looks super polished.
Look, if you’re into hidden object and puzzle games, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the ads can get a bit annoying if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out if you want a fun little mystery to solve on your phone.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on Sherlock・Hidden Object Mystery. I've tested a bunch of hidden object games and this one's up there with the best of 'em. The production values are really high, with great visuals and a cool Sherlock Holmes theme. The gameplay loop of searching for items and solving puzzles is super addictive. That said, it does get a little repetitive after a while, and the monetization with ads and in-app purchases is a bit heavy-handed. But if you're just looking for a polished and entertaining hidden object experience, this is a pretty solid option.
