Ok so I know this was uploaded 4 years ago, but I know what the Scotland Yard and skeleton keys are useful for. You can use them to throw people off the track. So if you ended up with a useless clue you can lock the door so the opponents will waste time going there assuming that you locked the door because it’s an important clue.

What? Awesome! A couple years back I read all the original Holmes stories it was in a 1050 page tome. Keep up the great work Matt!

wow that's cool how there are so many cases to solve in this game. good review Matt! seems like it would be a little pricy of a game tho, (high end) fun nonetheless tho!

I just got the older version with 20 cases.I was skeptical about buying because of the "riddle" clues but its not too hard to understand. It does take work to play like writing clues etc but its a very fun mature version of Clue.

I have the original version and 221b baker st the time machine. Did they add new case cards from the original or did they put in all the expansions together? Because in the original it only had 20 cases and each expansion had another 20!

Ok, good review, but I'm really curious if any of the cases and clues are taken straight from the stories or not...??

It's elementary my dear wilkins that you should game on

Good game, good review. I have bought separately most of the case booklets, and they are not equal in quality. Some sets of cases consist almost entirely of the (to me) real clues. In style: If U suspect that it was a case of poisoning, U go to pharmacy, and get a clue: "Mr. Smith was seen visiting a pharmacy the day before the murder". While some sets have mainly those trivial "crossword-puzzle" -like clues (which I hate).

Can you memorize each case? Or does each case play out like a mini-game of clue?

Arrived at my doorstep today!

this is the same as my old 1977 board game? maybe with more cases? 200 cases? dunno how many my childhood game has. (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gdigl8-m1JfOlHk.html)

Looks like a Cluedo ripoff
