Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective - The Baker Street Irregulars Board Game - Captivating Mystery Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 14+, 1-8 Players, 90 Min Playtime, Made by Space Cowboys

We've only done the first two cases, so far; but we're having a lot of fun! It's new mysteries, written just for this game. And you don't really need any prior knowledge of Sherlock books. The game will give you all the information you need to solve the mystery. Just take lots of notes!

After our playing the first scenario, I feel like this was a great choice for us. While we love games, this one isn’t bogged down with a bunch of rules, so it’s easy to get into — and great for non-gamers. The game play felt less like a game and more like we were actually investigators piecing together a mystery, thumbs up for its immersion value. While you do have the opportunity to compare yourself to Holmes at the end of each case, I’ll will always win if I have a good time, not how I compare to the great detective. We even purchased a copy for friends of ours since they live too far away to share the table with them.

Addicting and very hard BUT worth it! I think it works best with 3 players and up. My husband and I do them together sometimes but it takes a lot longer lol

This was a gift for my sister. We've played four of the games, and each one is amazing. Each does get a little bit harder to deduce but it is doable....even if it takes WAY more clues than Sherlock uses.

This is a really fun game for a group to play but a couple of things are important to note: it takes awhile and can be frustrating if, like me, you're not good at figuring stuff out and you would rather just have Holmes do it and Watson tell you about it. The cases can seem silly, but you have to accept that and get into the spirit of it. If you do, you will find in the end that it was/is much more entertaining that you may have expected.

A group of four women have been meeting at my house once a month for a year to play cooperative, mystery-solving games. After playing the second of the ten games in the box, we unanimously commented on how frustratingly challenging the Sherlock Holmes Irregulars games are—and also unanimously said how much we love these games and look forward to playing the next ones, when we optimistically believe we will be better. (After all, Sherlock himself is mentoring us.) The game is beautifully made, sturdy, well written. With ten games to play, it is an absolute bargain.

Great game!!

I've loved Sherlock Holmes since I was a kid. I saw this and expected it to be casual and cool. It is not. It is awesome and very in depth. My wife and I are 2 hours & 4 pages of notes into the first case. I'm am blown away at how well this is made and the stories laid out. I would estimate that there is easily 30+ hours of material in this pack (10 case files) this isn't something your going to run through in a 30 min session. If you like crime, mysteries, investigations at a moderate to serious level this is for you. If your looking for something casual like a game of clue it is not. Personally after leaving a semi-long career in LE for something safer this is scratching an itch in my brain that I haven't been able to in years since investigating real cases. I don't impress easily but this has truly done it. (Cases 1-4 are stand alone, cases 5-10 build on all previous cases)

I love this game. It's perfect.

Really good game. No problem with delivery.

Each case in this game is innovative and unique. Really enjoyed playing, and is well worth the purchase cost.

Exciting game for Family evenings! Totally worth the price : Each game is about 1-3 hours (depending on the pace and how deep you think it through or strive to win in the least amount of moves) That’s like 2-3€ per hour of fun.

One of the best in the series and a great starting point for those not familiar with the series. Gone through a few of the cases and they are all interesting with great writing and production quality. As a fan of Sherlock Holmes, I appreciate the details hidden within it.. yet I found it a tad bit challenging (even as someone who's into mystery)
