GamingLives takes a stroll through Victorian London in The Testament of Sherlock Holmes to see whether or not the latest game in Frogwares' Holmes series was worth the wait.
"While it could be said that Arthur Conan Doyle’s great detective is very much in vogue at the moment, with numerous new books, films, and TV shows eager to either revive Holmes and Watson as was, or else present a modern twist on the characters, developer Frogwares are well-established veterans in this space, having produced no fewer than six PC titles focused on Holmes, and have cultivated a dedicated fanbase. The latest game in their popular adventure series takes Doyle’s most famous creations and places them seamlessly, once again, into a new story, while remaining faithful to the style and characteristics of the original canon."
Focus Home Interactive, who Game-Modo recently described as a dark horse in publishing, have just got involved in a new Humble Bundle. They’re offering eight quality games for you to buy in a bundle while letting you do your bit for charity.
I grabbed it. I was interested enough already to try out the Game of Thrones . . .game (though I hear it is less than great).
Already owned Divinity 2, though that game is fantastic in itself.
Cities, Game of Thrones and Testament of Sherlock Holmes was worth the $25 I spent either way. Some of the other games seem interesting enough and I will probably get to them in time.
I bought it just for div 2, great game. The rest will just be icing if they turn out to be good, haven't got around to playing any yet as i'm in the middle of another play through of Oblivion lol.
