You play as Sherlock Holmes and have to invite your friend Watson on a picnic. Usually you'd gather a lot of things but this is just a demo, the game reminds you of that a lot, so you get some honey ready and find your way around the nice setting and that's about it. I wish there was more to do and really hope Jabbage gets to make more of this game. The graphics looks really good and the world is so rich in detail it is a joy to walk around and discover things. The close up screens are good to find out more about the characters, this is not really useful in the current state of the game but can lead to some great puzzles when done right. There is not much music and when there is music it is from midis from something else so there is not much to say about that, there are no sound effects as far as I can say. But it is a great demo that makes me wish for more...

Synopsis: It is the 1920s, and in the sleepy Sussex village of Fulworth, an elderly beekeeper (who is definitely NOT the world's greatest detective... any more) is trying to arrange a pleasant clifftop picnic for his lifelong friend. The only problem is that a series of pesky mysteries keep getting in the way.

A currently in development cosy, cottagecore point and click Sherlock Holmes game!

This is a proof of concept where I've tried out a few game mechanisms and ideas rather than a game in itself - but I hope you'll enjoy messing around in it, all the same!
