Review: Fantastic crime-solving adventures. - A fascinating dive into Sherlock's Victorian London with compelling mysteries to solve. You're given a map, address book and a newspaper page (plus ones from previous cases). Armed with these, you are presented with a crime to solve and have the freedom to choose how you go about it. When you are ready, you can go to the back page of the casebook to answer a range of questions. The mechanics of the gameplay are therefore very simple and effortless to learn, but the challenge is often high. You can play solo or in any sized group. There is a scoring system, based on your ability to answer the questions correctly while visiting as few locations as possible. However, I think the game is best enjoyed without worrying about it. Exploring London, going down rabbit holes, and being tricked by inevitable red herrings is more enjoyable for me than trying to "beat" Sherlock's score (which, let's face it, is rather a fool's errand). It seems a shame to have all this narrative material and then try to ignore as much of it as possible for a high score. But players are free to play however they like, so I don't really consider it a problem. There's ten cases in the box. A couple didn't quite grab me, but on the whole they're great and well-written. While replayability isn't really possible (maybe many years later?), there are dozens more free fan-written cases available online to get more mileage out of your purchase. Highly recommended. Review: The best game I've ever played - This game is the best. So different than any other board game, exciting and fun! All the cases are in-depth and very detailed (or at least the 3 we played so far), the newspapers are cleverly put together and the whole game experience is just awesome. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys crime & detective stories. Bear in mind though that it's NOT a party game, when you sit down to play, you're in for a 2-3 hour sitting, reading and speculating, so don't bother bringing it to a party that was supposed to be about music, alcohol and chit-chat. Also, don't worry that the cases are not replayable. 10 is a lot, you probably won't finish it in 10 days. The cases are - as I mentioned - in-depth and can be tiring too, so once you finish them you'll feel like you just finished a very-very long book. Besides, there are two more games with 10-10 brand new cases each so if your only concern is that the cases are not replayable then drop it and just buy the game! πŸ˜ƒ You won't regret it. ## Features - A new standalone box for Sherlock Holmes consulting detective - Cooperate with Your friends to solve each case in a Shared deductive Experience - An utterly unique game structure draws you into the World of Sherlock Holmes ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 2370990074 | | Additional Features | Board Game | | Age Range Description | 156 months to 180 months | | Are Batteries Required | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #32,105 in Toys ( See Top 100 in Toys ) #1,052 in Board Games | | Brand | Asmodee | | Brand Name | Asmodee | | CPSIA Cautionary Statement | Choking Hazard - Small Parts | | Color | Multicolor | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,849 Reviews | | Edition | First Edition | | Educational Objective | develop critical thinking, problem solving and teamwork | | Estimated Playing Time | 60 Minutes | | Game Mechanics | cooperative, deductive, problem solving | | Genre | Mystery Cooperative | | Global Trade Identification Number | 09782370990075 | | Included Components | 1 directory, 1 map of London, 1 rulebook, 10 case booklets, 10 newspapers | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 6.5 x 23.5 x 31 centimeters | | Item Dimensions L x W | 6.5L x 23.5W centimeters | | Item Type Name | Board Games | | Item Weight | 2 Grams | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Fantasy Flight Publishing | | Manufacturer Minimum Age (MONTHS) | 156.0 | | Manufacturer Part Number | SHEH03 | | Material | Plastic Cardboard | | Material Type | Plastic Cardboard | | Minimum Age Recomendation | 156 | | Model Number | SHEH03 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Players | 8 | | Number of players | 8 | | Operation Mode | Manual | | Product dimensions | 6.5L x 23.5W centimeters | | Set Name | The Thames Murders and Other Cases | | Size | The Thames Murders and Other Cases | | Sub Brand | Sherlock Holmes | | Subject Character | Sherlock Holmes | | Supported Battery Types | No batteries required | | Theme | Crime | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Asmodee - **Genre:** Mystery Cooperative - **Material:** Plastic Cardboard - **Number of players:** 8 - **Theme:** Crime ## Images ![Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: Vol 01 - Thames Murders - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91xyKtryybL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic crime-solving adventures. *by N***N on 9 December 2025* A fascinating dive into Sherlock's Victorian London with compelling mysteries to solve.

Playing with my girlfriend at a relaxed pace - a couple nights for each case, lasting about 45 min-1 hour per session. Perfect bonding experience - feels good to work things out together. Very well written cases and immersive gameplay - unique. I am used to playing games with physical boards, cards, or pieces. We have really enjoyed the freedom of playing a game that only requires your mind and enough time (don't give up and go to Sherlock's house for help! - his hint pretty much gave away a case, and the enjoyment comes from that eureka moment when you figure something out yourself) Recommended if you enjoy mystery, teamwork, and earning your victory. Or losing horribly and enjoying the experience anyway because you failed as a team. ## Frequently Bought Together - Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective - The Thames Murders & Other Cases Board Game - Captivating Mystery Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 14+, 1-8 Players, 90 Min Playtime, Made by Space Cowboys - Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective - Jack the Ripper & West End Adventures Board Game - Captivating Mystery Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 14+, 1-8 Players, 90 Min Playtime, Made by Space Cowboys - 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 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/250819846-sherlock-holmes-consulting-detective-vol-01-thames-murders](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/250819846-sherlock-holmes-consulting-detective-vol-01-thames-murders) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
