Sherlock Holmes VS Arsene Lupin (I)

Overview
Two of the greatest figures of detective literature are about to square off. Having grappled with the cult of Cthulhu in his last PC adventure The Awakened, Sherlock Holmes is now ready to challenge Arsène Lupin, the gentleman thief, invented by French writer Maurice Leblanc, and whose exploits have thrilled millions of readers worldwide.

This new Sherlock Holmes game sends us to 19th Century London where Arsène Lupin, a young French burglar with an impressive track record, has just challenged Scotland Yard and the most famous of detectives Sherlock Holmes.

Lupin has announced that he plans to rob the capital of five objects of immense value over the course of five days. The objects are housed in highly prestigious locations such as the National Gallery, the British Museum, the Tower of London and even Buckingham Palace!

Sherlock Holmes will have to muster all his courage and ingenuity to save England from terrible humiliation. As was so brilliantly achieved in The Awakened, this new adventure offers gamers tremendous freedom and an even stronger sense of involvement through real-time 3D.

The game invites you to visit 19th century London in all its splendour and to travel through superb decors which have been faithfully reproduced. With famous places and some of the most prestigious landmarks as your playing field, it is as if you are on your own guided tour of one of Europe’s most fabulous cities.

If the pace of the adventure and its many surprises leaves you breathless, take a break and enjoy looking at the hundreds of works of art all faithfully reproduced in their real locations.
