I should start by mentioning this game was developed start to finish during a trivial time for the people of Ukraine, which is where the team resides. I hope they all stay safe and the ones who enlisted a safe return
I'll be blunt, this game is the definition of mediocre but I liked it.
Following from "SH:Chapter One" this game removes the open world aspect and becomes a watered down linear experience. That's not a bad thing but with how short the game is it makes it feel unfinished. Without going in too deep, don't expect an epic battle of Sherlock vs Lovercraftian creatures, However expect a story written to forge a bond between one of the most iconic duos.
The story is interesting for about half of the game and the other half I'm left wanting something to happen but it never does.
I will say I didn't experience any bugs or anything close to it and that's a welcome surprise.
Because the game is more linear this also causes the games detective work to be way too easy to solve which is disappointing. However the Voice Actors did a phenomenal job yet again.
I hope the team will still be around to continue this franchise in the future.
