The Lost Files of Sherlock Holmes: The Case of the Rose Tattoo

London, 1889. Good old England.

Sherlock Holmes receives a note from his brother, Mycroft, requesting an immediate meeting at the Diogenes Club on an important matter. The meeting, however, did not take place: a powerful explosion shook the club in front of the detective. One of the visitors died, and Mycroft in serious condition was sent to the hospital. A strange coincidence, too strange ... Sherlock Holmes, accompanied by his friend and the permanent biographer of Dr. Watson, begins to search for the villains who organized the terrorist attack in "Diogenes."

During the investigation, you will visit more than 50 locations scattered throughout London (and even in a couple of places outside of it), filled with dozens of characters and objects. As befits a self-respecting detective, Holmes interrogates witnesses, collects evidence and tries to find a way to places where he is not expected at all. In the arsenal of the famous specialist with Baker Street there is also a well-equipped chemical laboratory, which allows to obtain information inaccessible to the ordinary eye, and a wardrobe for changing clothes.

Finding clues is the only weak point of the game. There are a lot of things, mostly small and inconspicuous, so sometimes you have to resort to the real pixel-hutting - you miss a button, and now you are at a dead end. In order to avoid such incidents, it is recommended to study the world around you as closely as possible.

There are a lot of conversations in Rose Tattoo, but brilliantly written dialogues do not let you get tired of the huge amount of information spilling on the player. Dr. Watson methodically notes all the spoken remarks, so if you forget something, you can easily refresh your memory.

The consistency of the events gives the majority of adventure 100 points ahead, at the same time without degenerating into the dry line of the line outlined from the very beginning. Story twists will not let you get bored: more and more new suspects are woven into the fabric, and you will know the name of the main criminal only at the very end.

A wonderful story about another case of Holmes, which did not manage to describe Arthur Conan Doyle.
