Gamezone writes: "Sherlock Holmes: The Awakening was a dark tale that had the detective taking on the Cthulu from H.P. Lovecraft's beloved mythos. Now, in Sherlock Holmes: Nemesis, the hero is taking on another character of literary fame, the thief Arsene Lupin from the novels of Maurice Leblanc. Whereas the previous crossover into the world of H.P. Lovecraft was a bit darker than many are used to when it comes to the famous detective, Sherlock Holmes: Nemesis is a bit more of a traditional adventure. The game's point-and-click style should be immediately familiar for fans of adventure games, while the puzzles are challenging and often creative. Although the game can be repetitious at times, it's still a solid adventure game that Sherlock Holmes fans should enjoy."
