Gibsons Sherlock Holmes The Card Game

Sherlock Holmes The Card Game offers an easy to pick-up game which will see you trying to deceive your opponents as you attempt to give up your villain cards or at the very least pin the blame on someone else. The game is great fun, especially for smaller groups (3+ as a minimum though).The game itself is very well-packaged and of good quality, with especially thick cards which will surely last. Each player can also have a reminder card to keep them abreast of the rules and how each card will work.There could be slightly more variety in the locations on offer (although a minor point), as the same location cards frequently appear during gameplay. Generally though this is a well-thought out game.Overall I would recommend Sherlock Holmes The Card Game to those experienced board game players as well as those who want to try something a bit different from the norm.

We got this game after playing it with my family over Christmas and we still love it. Took it to Scotland when we went to keep us occupied in the evenings and it had us laughing every night.The fact that games can either be really short or very long is brilliant and so much fun as it is a surprise every time.It can take a little while to understand what you are doing in the game but once you get it you will never forget.I really recommend this game to anyone, even if you're not a fan of Sherlock, you can have huge amounts of fun playing.

This is quite an old game now but is actually a quite clever and engaging card game, particularly for slightly larger groups, and has left the family wanting to play multiple times one after the other. Each game is quite short really so it does not require you to have huge amounts of time, the set up is simple and quick and the space required is just a little table to place the cards. It is quite tactical in play really and, although you can play with just three people it lends itself far more to slightly bigger groups as it is more subtle working out where the criminal is as well as other special cards. A good game, well worth a try.

A great game for anyone familiar with Sherlock or not. The aim of the game is to try and catch a player who is holding a villain card, whilst having the lowest number of points in your hand. There are a number of other cards, such as to move locations or provide an allibi. You can then play a number of rounds to see who can score the lowest points across them all.The rules can seem a little complicated, but make sense with time and there are some quick reference cards which can help. I would also say that it is better to play with more people, but it can still work with less.

I bought his card game as a gift for a relative. Each card has instructions as to what moves (cards) are allowed to follow, plus there are separate instructions cards available. The object of the game is to catch the villain (I think there are 3 villain cards) . Some of the moves entitle the player to look at some of the cards held by another player. Other moves include re shuffling all the cards in play and redistributing amonstt the players.like many other games it Can be a bit confusing to start with.
