2404 writes: "Frogwares' Sherlock Holmes series turns to the seedy and impoverished East districts of London in Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper, which begins with the discovery of a hideous murder on Buck's Row Street of a prostitute who worked the area. After a bit of persuasion, Watson convinces Holmes that they should look into the matter. It's been over a year since I played Sherlock Holmes: Nemesis, the third game in the adventures series, and, unfortunately, I found this installment somewhat unsatisfying compared to the former. The primary drawbacks include a lack of urgency and often trite and tedious puzzles that have little to do with the storyline."
