Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: Adventures by Gaslight

What is Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: Adventures by Gaslight

"As the events unfold, day by day, can you clear Anny Forster of the charges against her? Where are Amelie Thacker’s porcelain birds? What is Mycroft’s role in this affair? These are only a few of the mysteries that will challenge your deductive reasoning as you spend a few days in May of 1889 trying to solve the Adventures by Gaslight."

This is a supplement to the Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective: The Thames Murders & Other Cases game and requires components from that game in order to play. The game challenges your deductive reasoning skills and ability to discern important details from generally available information. No luck is involved, just your mental ability. Great fun with a group of fellow sleuths or as a challenge all by yourself. Contents:

Case Book -- a 24-page book containing the rules, daily briefings for each of the five days of the case, questions, solution and answers.

Clue Book -- 143 numbered clues and the clue point listing.
