Sherlock Holmes: "We are going to challenge you"

Frogwares Studio promises a "drastically" different game for Crimes & Punishments.
Mike Holmes 23 October 2013

Bengt Lemne talks with Frogwares Studio's business development manager, Olga Ryzkho, and discovers more about Crimes & Punishments, the latest adventure in the Sherlock Holmes series.

During the interview we're told how the latest entry in the series is "drastically" different to what's come before: "It's very different, the game is more challenging, it is more sophisticated. We are going to challenge all the wits that you have. We are going to challenge you as a detective. We are going to challenge you as a person, with the moral preferences, your decisions that you're going to take in the game."

When we asked how the game was to be presented, this is what Ryzkho told us: "There are several cases, there are several investigations for you to enjoy, for the end I'd say like 15 hours probably. And every case that we have, it has different conclusions, possible ones from three to five possible conclusions. There's also the moral choice for you to make."
