Kudos to the developers.. ### 5/5 — An adventure one can't miss *2017-11-23, version 1.1* A thrilling journey into the lives of Sherlock and Watson. Must read. ### 5/5 — Shubham vaish *2017-11-23, version 1.1* Awesome experience, so engrossing n engaging, it is the best app in the form of messenger, great experience..loving this app👌👌👌👌 ### 5/5 — Must have app *2017-11-23, version 1.1* This app is really very good and intresting. One of the most enjoyable app in recent times, looking forward for new adventures. This is a must have app for everyone. ### 5/5 — You’ll crave for more *2017-11-21, version 1.0.7* For a Sherlock fan, this app is a must-have. The pictures are stunning, the design is easy on the eye, and most importantly, the content is the real winner here. Out-of-the-box, quirky, and thoroughly enjoyable, I have found my new addiction, and it’s not unhealthy 😬 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The game froze. *2019-12-24* I just downloaded this game and when I got to the screen to enter my nickname, the screen froze. It did not help to go back and try again. Very disappointed. ### 2/5 — ?????? *2020-04-15, version 5.0.94* Why is one player forced to name oneself, let others in, or insist on adding other people? This game should be one player interacting with the software. ### 2/5 — It’s fun but why do I have to pay? *2019-04-19, version 5.0.94* Just the question ### 3/5 — Profile picture issues *2025-01-15, version 7.0.1031* My issue is that you can’t edit your profile picture to fit because there’s no option. I just have to deal with the stupid grey silhouette because it just picks a random spot in the middle of the face to go. And when you click on the picture again it just opens the gallery so you can pick another picture, which isn’t helpful ### 3/5 — Not good *2021-11-06, version 5.0.94* Not good makes you pay for any more stories ### 3/5 — Near the Beginning *2020-05-21, version 5.0.94* I’m liking it so far, the only thing I would change is it seems a little out of character for Sherlock to say “Yeah” instead of “Yes,” even if this is set in modern times. I also wish that the letters were sent in text format after the pictures because the letters are small and hard to read in the pictures. You might also want to update your third picture on the app page since it still shows the second and third stories as “Coming Soon” instead of “New” ### 4/5 — Love it, but..... *2019-05-19, version 5.0.94* This truly is a very creative app, but I just don’t believe that people should have to pay for this. I think it should all be free for everyone. bye ### 4/5 — It is awesome however... *2018-11-13, version 5.0.91* It asks for money to do a story you are not on. Other than that is wonderful 🕵🏾‍♂️ ### 4/5 — A lot of fun! *2018-10-03, version 5.0.91* I am thoroughly enjoying the story app as I am a big fan of Sherlock Holmes. You have retained his wit and the characterization is more modern but still ultimately Sherlock. The only suggestion I would make is the conversations Sherlock has with you as the “fan”... sometimes despite choosing the “correct” deduction, the app will still proceed as though you chose the “incorrect” one, cycling through the scripted conversation regardless. A glitch, I’m sure but one you might want to be aware of. Great app, keep up the good work! ### 5/5 — Such a good game *2025-06-21, version 7.1* A must for Sherlock fans! The animations are smooth, and interactive. Play now and the 12 stories are worth the 5 bucks. ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great for fans of Sherlock *2025-02-22, version 7.0.1031* This is a very fun experience. I am a very dedicated Sherlock fan. Having read all the books, I have a sense of the path of these adventures may take, but still fun. Lovely! ### 5/5 — J-Critic *2025-02-07, version 7.0.1031* This app makes me feel like Sherlock Holmes when I read the mystery stories that inspire me to become a genius like him. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU, Sherlock ### 5/5 — Super! *2023-04-11* Really fun and immersive. Being a part of the journey along with Sherlock Holmes and Watson is a great feeling. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Such a great app! *2019-05-08, version 5.0.94* So much fun! Just wish you didn’t have to pay to do the rest of the cases. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2018-09-30, version 5.0.91* This app is so much fun I love how you can customize your own character and make your own decisions! I also love how it makes you feel like you are apart of the story! ### 5/5 — Enjoyable *2018-09-09, version 5.0.91* I enjoy this style. Hopefully the developers are considering developing more Sherlock Holmes stories in this format. ### 5/5 — Amazing devs and game! *2018-07-23, version 5.0.91* They really care about the game and the community ### 5/5 — Brilliant idea and impressive execution! *2018-07-21* This is fun to play through as a Holmes fan anyway, and has excellent potential as a tool within educational settings! Am looking forward to testing this with my students who study the various stories, giving them a chance to go through literature in an unusual (but very familiar) format! Am recommending to anyone who enjoys the stories, or likes the format. **Developer response:** Thank you! It means a lot to us. Using this to take good literature to younger generation is a part of our mission and we are happy to hear that we are on the right path. We would like to hear your/your student's feedback. Please feel free to write to us at support@knovella.com. We will be looking forward to the feedback and take the suggestions with utmost sincerity in improving future games. Appreciate all the help. ### 5/5 — Great adaptation! *2018-06-01, version 4.0.0* Enjoyable adaptation of the classic stories for the impatient. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
