So torn on this game, which does a great job of adapting the feel of detective fiction in general and Holmes in specific but is also simultaneously way too hand-holdy, undercutting much of the joy the player might have in figuring it out themself, and has resolutions that feel kind of unfair, like flipping to the back of the Encyclopedia Brown book so Donald J. Sobol can tell you that actually there isn't One Clue That Unravels It All, but instead Master Brown is a licensed psychologist.

And like hey, given the title and certain themes, that might be the point! However, the game hasn't really pushed strongly enough in that direction for me to give it the benefit of that specific doubt.

The episodic nature is a strength, though.
