Features & Capabilities

Sherlock is a computerized version of logic puzzles, where you're presented with a series of clues that help you to determine the exact locations of all the images on in the puzzle. The puzzles are all 4x4, 5x5 or 6x6. Each row of the puzzle contains images of the same type (faces, houses, numbers, fruit, street signs, letters, etc). The game scrambles the locations of the items in each row (without showing you their locations) and then presents to you a set of graphical clues that describe the positional relationships of different images. You use the clues to deduce where things can't be (and where they HAVE to be) until you know where all the images are located.

Sherlock FREE contains 10 puzzles in each size for 30 puzzles total. The PRO version has 600 puzzles total, and the ULTRA version has 7500 puzzles total. The ZEN version has 150,000 puzzles total. The puzzles in the FREE, PRO, ULTRA, and ZEN versions are all unique, the four versions of the game share NO common puzzles.

This is my go-to game when I’m bored or have a few extra minutes waiting for something or someone. I’ve been a lover of Sherlock since the mid-90s. I have it on my iPhone and my iPad. I never tire of playing it. At 76, I think it keeps my brain sharp! Thank you for this wonderful game!!

I first bought Sherlock for DOS and the needed to buy a mouse to play it. It's simple, though not easy. It took a while to get used to the mobile gameplay, though otherwise it's the same game. Because there's no reading involved in the game, my kids learned to play before they could read.
