This was a very fun Holmes game. I made me want more Sherlock Holmes adventure games. He seems perfect for this genre. I did have to use a walkthru a couple of times though.

A great game! One of the better non Lucas Arts or Sierra point and click adventure games.

Default Solving a problem

Like many guys here I stucked in Belle's Perfumerine. I tried everything until I found the bug (or perhaps I should call it illogical behavour of game).

You have to talk to Belle again and ask her for men, choose one of this option (I think it's something like tall guy) and describe him like this:
tall, unsure of body building, black hair. She told you, that it was a rugby player. Ask her for the perfume which she has on the back (D'azur I think). Now you talk to cleaning girl and she gives you a advice about James.

Before you do that you have to:
- examine jumper on apartment
- examine stain on theater's door
- talk to coach on fields until he asks for description of James
- examine all things in inventory which is related to the case (especially perfume from theatre)

I hope this help somebody.

This is a good game and in many ways a bit better than Frogwares new Holmes games.

I loved the game, the story was as intriguing as the original short-stories, but I never got to Belle's Perfumerine (I am not very good at pixel-hunting and such things...)

I got stuck, according to the walkthrough, near the end of the game, in the Brumwell's manor. After he leaves the room, the door remain locked. The walkthrough reads that I should move the left Persian sword and then the painting in order to get the key to the door. My problem is that I move the sword but whenever I try to move the painting, the game says it cannot be moved. Anyone had similar problems? What should I do now?

Hi.
I have the following problem:
When I want to ring the doorbell of the Lord Brumwells mansion, game hangs up. It has something to do with the sound- in the DOSBOX appears text like this: DMA segbound wrapping.
I also tried to switch off sound and music in setup file, but as i wanted to "make change" for the no sound setting, setup again hung up, there was written something about, cant open library file or so.

If someone knows solution for this, please write.

P.S. I also launched fix patch file.

Thanks,
Adis

I have the same problem as Niwman. During the intro, after the cat jumps down and the bottle crashes to the ground, the game freezes and the music skips. I have DosBox set to run at 3000 cycles. Can you help?
