Sherlock Holmes: The Devil’s Daughter

In Sherlock Holmes: The Devil’s Daughter, players step into the shoes of the master detective himself as he faces a series of linked cases involving dark family secrets and personal dilemmas. When his adoptive daughter Katelyn arrives at 221B Baker Street and uncovers unsettling truths about her father, Holmes must navigate a whirlwind of emotions, occult rituals, and a desire for vengeance. Alongside confronting evil in the darkest corners of London, players explore the city's districts, interrogate suspects, gather evidence, and make deductions that will shape the outcome of the story.
