I do not like Sherlock Holmes. While I acknowledge he has some pretty awesome adventures, there's just something about him that makes me want to slap that hat off his head every time he opens his mouth and girl-bully the heck out of him. Then again, that's par for the course when you're talking about a character who gets called "the greatest detective who ever lived"; with a title like that, you practically have to be campaigning for Most Insufferably Smug Genius of the Year. What I do like, however, is Sherlock Holmes: The Hound of the Baskervilles the new hidden-object adventure game from Frogwares. In fact, I like it quite a bit. Combining rich visuals, moody environment, and a mass of tricky puzzles to crack, it's an exceptionally well made game... if not exactly wholly accurate to the source material.
If you were expecting or hoping the story would stay true to the original, well, uh, don't. The basic premise is still intact; Henry Baskerville returns home after his father's death, and seeks out the legendary Sherlock Holmes to find out the truth behind the curse that has taken the life of every member of his family. Holmes (and Watson, because they are Best Friends Forevar) follow Henry to the Baskerville estate, where you quickly find a whole lot of ominous lighting, strange shadows, and Dark Forces Are At Work?... or are they? It isn't long before Holmes and company begin to suspect they aren't dealing with any ordinary beast... and that's before the mystical powers show up.
As Holmes and his companions, you'll scour the spacious Baskerville estate, hunting for answers and solving puzzles. The game comes with two difficulty modes, and while "easy" marks interactive areas and offers more hints, "hard" comes with more difficult puzzles and hidden-object scenes. The only penalty for repeated misclicks is that the cursor will eventually go flying around the screen temporarily and Holmes will chastise you for being too hasty. Hey, shut up, Sherlock! I always liked Watson better anyway. Early on, you'll also gain access to the Book of the Baskervilles; while it might sound boring by title, this actually serves as a map you can use to instantly jump to any location you've already visited, and also marks places that still have clues with an exclamation mark.
Analysis: Clearly, this is not canon Holmes material. How big of an issue this is for you largely depends on how much of a fan/purist you are, and if your answer to that is "a very big one", you probably hit the words "mystical powers" in this review and your monocle probably popped right out in shock. In fact, one of the reasons that compelled me to finish (you know, apart from the game being fun and well made) was because I wanted to see if there really was some logical explanation for it all, true to Holmes fashion. Granted, it would have to be massively complicated and convoluted on a Scooby-Doo-like scale, or at least involve a Batman supervillain or two, but it could still happen. Does it? Well, that'd be spoiling things, now, wouldn't it?
What I will tell you is that apart from a woefully overexcited soundtrack, most everything about Hound of the Baskervilles exudes high production values. The design, clearly, is gorgeous, with deep, vibrant colours in highly detailed environments, but the gameplay is sort of a mixed bag. None of it is bad; as you'd expect from a Sherlock game, much of it revolves around solving puzzles, and both the variety and the scale of difficulty is a wonderful treat. However (there's always a however) the game has a disappointing tendency to have puzzle pieces just "show up" when they're required by popping up in places they previously were not in, which means you have to revisit places just on the off chance something you need has "spawned". The gameplay also winds up being a little predictable; track down all the missing pieces of a puzzle or lock, move to the next location, and do it again.
Fortunately, Sherlock Holmes: The Hound of Baskervilles is still worth playing for everything else it gets right, from its beautiful design, to its crazy (but interesting!) spin on the classic tale, to the absolutely brilliant addition of that simple but wonderful instant travel map more games should make use of. It's rare to find a hidden-object game that really forces you to use your brain, and the puzzle difficulty on hard mode ranges from simple tile swapping to code deciphering. Depending on your chosen mode and whether you skip any puzzles, the game should take anywhere from three to five hours to complete. While die-hard Holmes fans might be disappointed by how many liberties it takes with the source material, those looking for just a quality adventure with some challenging gameplay will find a lot to like here, and should definitely check out the demo. One might say... it's elementary.
A Collector's Edition is also available. It contains extra material such as three bonus chapters to play, an in-game strategy guide, and more. Remember that Big Fish Game Club Members pay only $13.99 for Collector's Editions, and collector's editions count 3 card punches of 6 total needed for a free game.

Sherlock Holmes and the Hound of the Baskervilles - Walkthrough
General
You can play the game in easy or hard mode.
Hard mode will mean longer time to recharge the hint and skip buttons, no additional help from highlighting important objects, and harder puzzle.
The book in the low left corner contains a map.
Clicking on one of the active (colored) locations will bring you immediately to this room/place.
A location with an exclamation marks shows locations with a pending task.
A lot of puzzles will need several objects or several parts of one object.
The numbers in your inventory will show you the remaining amount.
The hint will show you an object in the hidden-object scenes or a place at your location where something could be done or picked up.
The problem with the hint is that it will show you puzzle locations even though you do not have all needed parts.
The powers you will receive from the portraits can always be used. They do not need time to recharge.
When you come into a room or an area with a blue sign on top that says "Area completed," there is definitely nothing more to find or do.

I probably won't end up playing this, but don't you think your last comment sounds rather... promotional?
I've seen plenty of BigFish games here in the past so perhaps you have some sort of agreement, but I just feel that recommending a third-party subscription based model doesn't exactly fit in with JIG's ideology of casual gaming
[Perhaps it's your expectations of JIG that's out of sync here? Big Fish Games is the leading publisher of casual games in the casual games industry, and most of the JIG Review and Walkthroughs team play and enjoy the games that are available at Big Fish, most of which are exclusive and not available any where else. The JIG ideology is and always will be that we review, discuss and recommend only the best Flash and casual games available on the Web. This game definitely fits within that ideology. :) -Jay]

This is a very well done IHOG. Easy buy for me. What's trippy is there's another game out there (not on Big Fish) called Mystery Of Mortlake Mansion that is similar in play, that is, both these games make use of "alternate" rooms, which is a refreshing change from static gaming universes.

Hi Syntax,
I felt it was worth mentioning the new price of Collector's Editions since it recently changed. Instead of 19.99, the price drops to 13.99 for Game Club Members, which for many people is a lot closer to reasonable. Not everyone is aware of the price change, and I know for me personally it meant Collector's Editions were something I would consider buying.
I'm not saying you SHOULD rush out and get a membership, and by all means if you want to wait, the Standard Edition will be available in a few weeks. But considering that right now the only thing available is the more expensive Collector's Edition, it's important people know what they're getting for that price, and how they can get it. :)
Posted by: Dora | November 14, 2010 1:25 PM
Hi Dora and Jay,
Cheers for the replies. I have bought several games as a result of a JIG review and appreciate the fact you're advising a way to get a better deal - I think it should be mentioned it's a subscription price though.
Anyways... thanks for the reviews. Much appreciate your hard work :)
Posted by: Syntax | November 14, 2010 3:09 PM
Thank you, Syntax, for your feedback and for your support! :)
The fine print about the Big Fish game club is that you can cancel the membership subscription at any time. There are no minimum purchasing requirements or cancellation fees, and you get to keep all your purchased games forever without any penalties. Furthermore, for each month's subscription fee ($6.99) you get a coupon good for any $6.99 game, which is their standard price for all non-collector's edition games. Other benefits, including discounts and privileges, also apply.
To me, that's about the best subscription model I can think of. So technically, yes, it's a subscription price, but hardly anything to fret over, IMO.
Posted by: Jay | November 14, 2010 3:29 PM
Must admit, that is pretty good value :) I wasn't aware of the small-print, but just reacted to the fact it was a recurring charge. I'm one of those who changes channel if I'm ever advertised *free* ringtones (for the price of ?4.99 a week)

Sherlock Holmes and the Hound of the Baskervilles - Walkthrough
General
You can play the game in easy or hard mode.
Hard mode will mean longer time to recharge the hint and skip buttons, no additional help from highlighting important objects, and harder puzzle.
The book in the low left corner contains a map.
Clicking on one of the active (colored) locations will bring you immediately to this room/place.
A location with an exclamation marks shows locations with a pending task.
A lot of puzzles will need several objects or several parts of one object.
The numbers in your inventory will show you the remaining amount.
The hint will show you an object in the hidden-object scenes or a place at your location where something could be done or picked up.
The problem with the hint is that it will show you puzzle locations even though you do not have all needed parts.
The powers you will receive from the portraits can always be used. They do not need time to recharge.
When you come into a room or an area with a blue sign on top that says "Area completed," there is definitely nothing more to find or do.

Hi I was just wondering if this game is able to be played on Windows 7, because the OS says Vista or XP?
Thanks for your help!
[Hi Kimberly. Yes, the game should run fine under Windows 7, but you should always try the demo to be sure it will run under your particular configuration. If the demo runs, you can be sure the full version will, too. If you ever have trouble, though, Big Fish customer support is always there to make things right. Their customer service is among the best in the industry. -Jay]

hello,
same problem with "materialisation"! any idea to go further?? really interesting game!
Posted by: JIGuest | December 3, 2010 12:26 PM
Hi, why can nobody find the glitch "materializing key"?
Posted by: jERRY | December 6, 2010 5:10 AM
To everyone who has had the issue with the materialisation power, please check your game manager and make sure the game is updated. This issue should already have been fixed in a recent update. If an update is available, you will see something that says "update ready" or something similar next to the game's name in the menu. If not, please either contact Big Fish Games support or try reinstalling the game; there might be an entirely new build out.
One of our writers had this issue before we wrote the review, and it was confirmed that the game had been fixed. (I didn't have any issues and neither did she.) If you've updated and reinstalled, then you need to contact Big Fish Games support with your details and they will fix it ASAP. http://bit.ly/big-fish-support

Hi, I can't get the solar system puzzle, your spoiler doesn't work as there's no way to get the ball into B. Can you help with this?? Many thanks.
Posted by: JIGuest | December 18, 2010 8:47 AM
Dear friends, after trying some other games from Big Fish I found the HoB has the best storyline, graphics and sounds. I have not found any other game at Big Fish like that yet.
I bought it and have played more than once.
Good job!
