IGN: Sherlock Holmes: Nemesis Review

Sherlock Holmes: Nemesis is a solid adventure title if you like pixel hunting in a 3D environment while solving riddles and the occasional obscure puzzle. Having the game in 3D allows the player to feel like they're in the world, however it impedes the gameplay when items are difficult to find. The story isn't particularly engaging or original; it's your standard cat-and-mouse affair, but the focus here is the puzzles.

For hardcore adventure fans there is a good challenge here to keep you busy for hours. However newcomers or people looking for a light and easy adventure may be disappointed because of all the backtracking and scanning that is needed.
