(More customer reviews)My dad bought this game when my sister and I were finishing up middle school. I absolutely loved it. The premise is that Sherlock Holmes traveled through time to solve famous unsolved crimes. Each time you play you focus on a separate famous crime. If recall correctly it includes Sacco & Vanzetti, DB Cooper, the zodiac killer, the Black Dahlia, the Lindbergh baby kidnapping and Marilyn's much debated death among others. As you play the game you uncover clues to help you solve the crimes. The crimes are described pretty historically, which makes for a fun history lesson, though some of the made up solutions are a bit ridiculous.
Because of the nature of the game and the patience it requires this game is not suitable for kids under 12, and some may think that is too young. The game also has a built in number of plays since it only comes with so many crimes to solve. However each game played is a commitment so it tends to be something you just play when you're up for the commitment. For the record it is less of a commitment than Risk or Monopoly, but we didn't run out of crimes to solve before I went off to college.
