Description

(From the Infcom Home Page site)

In The Riddle of the Crown Jewels, you play the role of Doctor Watson. You have received an urgent summons to the rooms of your good friend Sherlock Holmes by his landlady, Mrs. Hudson. Normally you are not up and about so early on a Saturday. But here you are, outside the Baker Street residence, and not a moment too soon; for the fog has thickened and travel without a lamp has become impossible.

An interesting, lavish experiment that's a little too linear Colin Rowsell (45) unrated

Trivia

Sherlock featured sound for certain systems (like Amiga). Do you want your version to have sound? You can get the missing sound files and a utility to upgrade your .DAT file. It is available via anonymous ftp from ftp.gmd.de at if-archive/infocom/missing-files, and the file is called SHSOUND.ZIP.
