It's murder most foul in Carmel Games' point-and-click adventure Sherlock Holmes 2, but who the cops think dunnit insists he's innocent, even though his cane was found at the scene of the crime! Who would want to frame a fire alarm salesman for murder, and why? Your cursor will change when it passes over something you can interact with, and as you explore the few areas around London you have access to, you'll find a lot of things to click on. Remember that you can occasionally combine items in your inventory by clicking first one, then the other if you're stuck! As you might expect from Carmel Games, Sherlock Holmes 2 is more silly than serious, with plenty of strange moments and odd puzzles to contend with, despite not being particularly long or difficult. Kick back, relax, grab your candy cane, and crack a code or two!

I mean, I use walkthroughs myself, and I don't like resorting to video walkthroughs either, so I should be sympathetic. But you can pause video walkthroughs, you know? (And did you check to make sure it was a video before you asked? It was, but you should at least check first.) And when you're asking people to do free work for you (which you are), it's really really important to say "please" and "thank you" a lot so they don't feel like they're just catering to someone's never-ending demands. That's what it feels like when you don't ask politely, and it's worse if you don't show gratitude. So make sure to say "thank you" for this, okay? Show that you appreciate it and it's not half an hour of work dumped into an empty internet pit for no reward. Otherwise people won't want to help you.
