Casual PC Game – The Lost Cases Of Sherlock Holmes

I have always loved to spend my leisure time playing computer games. Therefore it’s not surprising that I took my further studies in the field of Computer Science and now working as a Programmer. My favorite computer games are those that either involves strategy, investigations, puzzle solving, and role playing, casual games be it online or PC platform.

Legacy Interactive has most recently announced the release of The Lost Cases of Sherlock Holmes. It’s a whodunit casual computer game of theft, espionage and murder just like the kind of thing you watch on Sherlock Holmes movies or read on books. In game, the player must use their observations abilities to solve puzzles and identify the culprit. Those who like mysteries and suspense would love this game. Featuring familiar characters including Sherlock Holmes, Watson, Mycroft, Inspector Lestrade and more than 100 historical characters that will keep you occupied in the world of detective investigation. I am going to download this game and try it out.

Hello Amidrin, Interesting post you have here.
Regret I don't play computer games, ha ha...prefer to read the news or do research on certain subjects I love, like cars, fishing.
I have read quite a few of Sherlock Holmes stories old days, one being, "The Hounds of the Baskervilles", my all time favourite.
As well Agatha Cristie's.
Thank you for your kind thoughts in my blog.
By the way Amidrin, I have three stories, with some mystery in them posted few months ago, if you have time, take a look at my archive...all based on actual experiences
1/ My tears never dry for you, 12/2/07.
2/ You are not my son, 12/15/ 07
3/ A Faded letter from the past, 1/4/08. This is the longest story I have ever posted, 19 episodes, took 3 weeks to post all. Its about a love of a matured woman for a man half her age.
You have a nice weekend, keep well, Lee.

I remember this game back in the days! One of the first games I tried to play after dad gifted me a computer set for being good at school and being helpful at him at the garage. Too bad he had to down grade the PC so I don't play too much.
