Sherlock Holmes: Puzzle City for Nintendo 3DS

About Sherlock Holmes: Puzzle City for Nintendo 3DS

Sherlock Holmes Puzzle City brings the great detective into a game built around cases, clues and brain testing puzzles. You follow Holmes through a city full of small mysteries, where each solved problem opens the next step of an investigation. The setting leans on the classic world of Baker Street, with suspects, witnesses and evidence to sort through. Nothing here rushes you, which makes it a pleasant pick for quiet evenings when you want your mind to do the running.

Play is made of varied puzzle types rather than action. You study scenes for clues, arrange evidence in the right order, solve logic problems and piece together what each witness really saw. Puzzles grow trickier as the cases progress, and small hints help when one problem has you stuck for too long. The structure suits the Nintendo 3DS well, since a single case step fits nicely into a short play session, and the touch screen makes selecting and sorting pieces feel natural.

Thinking of picking this up today? The Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS closed in March 2023, so new digital copies are no longer sold. Your honest option is a physical cartridge, found through game shops or second hand sellers who deal in older handheld games. People who bought it digitally before the closure can still access their purchased games on their system. With lesser known titles like this, patience while hunting a copy usually pays off.

Calm, clever and unhurried, it is a fine thinking game.
