Ms. Holmes: Monster of the Baskervilles by LynxMinx
Although it’s nice to see a new series, this first game was somewhat dull. The storyline was trite and unoriginal: evildoer kidnaps a child to gain eternal health/youth/life. None of the HO scenes was innovative, and most of the puzzles/games were of the boring rotational genre. Give us mazes and labyrinths and painting and elixirs and codes; mix it up a bit! The basic gameplay was entertaining, as Elephant provides a plethora of tasks at each location. The graphics were faded and lacked visual acuity. I did not find the game glitchy or buggy; it ran fine but I didn’t like the inventory bar because I kept accidentally closing it. After playing series such as Detectives United, Paranormal Files and Grim Tales, this game just didn’t stimulate me. In addition, it was extremely short. Elephant, for the $7 price tag, your games need to be over a gig in size! The players are getting tired of extremely brief gameplay for this price and eventually they won’t buy them, not when Domini is giving us blockbuster games that are well over a gig in size for the same price, and a discount with the subscription model. My rating will stand at 3 stars for average!
For those who don’t know, Domini updated their game and is getting good reviews, so you can now play. Happy gaming!
