Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective The Thames Murders Board Game

Ever fancied yourself for a detective? Put your mystery-solving skills to the test as you interview suspects, search for clues and try to beat Sherlock Holmes himself to the answers! No board, no dice… it's just your brains against the game.

Walk the streets of Victorian London and solve ten challenging mysteries in Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective The Thames Murders. This standalone cooperative game places the investigation in your hands, with cases ranging from missing works of art and strange deaths to the crimes behind the Thames Murders.

Armed with The Times, a map of London and a city directory, players choose their own leads and decide which people or locations to visit. Clues are spread throughout the case material, so the group must listen closely, connect details across different sources and recognise when an attractive theory does not fit the evidence.

Once the team believes the case is solved, it answers a set of questions and compares its route and conclusions with those of Sherlock Holmes. The aim is not simply to reach the correct answer, but to investigate with clarity and purpose. All ten cases are included, and no other Consulting Detective game is required.
