About the Game

Further murders are taking place in London's Whitechapel district. Inspector Lestrade receives mysterious letters claiming the crimes, which are signed... Jack the Ripper! Ten years after his disappearance, is the serial killer back?

Play as Holmes or Watson, locate yourself on the map of the neighborhood and discover the final word of this enigma, because you are the hero!

Sherlock Holmes: L'Ombre de Jack l'Eventreur is a comic combined with a game, one title in a series subtitled "The comic in which you are the hero". You embody a character in a immersive story in which your choices guide your progress. You have a character sheet akin to those used in role-playing games that tracks your possessions, your special abilities, your coins, and your victory points. In general, gameplay consists in following the comic's panels — which contain clues, riddles and traps — and making choices about where to go and what to do, while using your visual perception to collect clues and be smart enough to resolve the riddles. As in any game, you can lose — sometimes really badly!
