  1. Sherlock Holmes DS is an excellent option for those Nintendo DS adventure lovers, specially the followers of this British hero.
  2. Appalling voice acting makes this feel very shoddy, though with the sound turned down it's a passable 'entry level' point 'n' clicker if you can find it cheap. [July 2009, p.77]
  3. The game is a simple port of the PC-version, without a good control scheme. There are some fun puzzles, but there are too little to entertain you for hours.
