A Sherlock Holmes-themed board game by Reiner Knizia is now available in Japanese.
Run around Victorian London and solve six famous cases.
Players use clue cards, such as magnifying glasses and witnesses, to collect six colored case tiles scattered throughout London.
The case is solved when tiles of the same color are removed, and players receive bonuses based on their contribution,
but there are also benefits to being involved in multiple cases, so various strategies are possible.
Holmes' intervention can even bring the game to an unexpected end, so you'll never be able to let your guard down.
All 66 cards feature lines from Holmes taken from the novels.
The map board shows many of the places Holmes has visited,
recommended for mystery fans.
