Sherlock Holmes Murder Mystery Game - Case Solved - Tejas did it the fastest!

Agree with wakephan's commentary. Definitely would have a better feel for things the second time around. Tried to complicate things too much when in reality, best path was the most obvious (not to mention 3 of Holmes' 4 stops were in the initial Hint for recommended places).

And I think it'd potentially improve the game if you didn't get the Essential Questions until after you stated you were done searching and ready to solve.

This sums up a lot of my thoughts

"50 bonus points is worth 10 extra clue locations."

This is big. If you have any doubt about your case, 100% worthwhile to continue exploring.

Also - are the bonus questions always about a separate case? Meaning do they always have to do with illegal activity that we/Holmes is uncovering?

They have been a tangent of the main case before.

But lots of times they are about something else in the paper, showing the importance of reading it all.

ooh, this is a good point. We figured those hints were supposed to be obvious starting points, not the only essential stops.

I threw those in. Not part of the actual case write up
