An attack on the British Parliament! Evidence is scarce, and Scotland Yard is in the dark. Only one can help: Sherlock Holmes, while Professor Moriarty tries to erase traces in the background. A duel between the two brightest minds in London ensues. Only the one who finds the most clues will succeed. Will Holmes solve the case, or will Moriarty get away with it again?

Prepare for a battle between London's brightest minds: Sherlock vs. Moriarty! Sherlock must gather enough clues to solve the attack on Parliament. Moriarty also searches for clues but erases them to prevent the case from being solved. Use your influence, visit unpredictable, dubious, and helpful characters, and wisely use their abilities to achieve your goal. It's crucial to keep an eye on your opponent's turns. The player with the most clues at the end wins!

HOLMES is a worker placement game for 2 players. Collect sets of clues to solve the "crime" (or erase your tracks). The game features 13 different action options (characters that help you), but only 10 are used in each game, ensuring a lot of variation. The timing of when these characters enter the game (early or late) ultimately determines your strategy. There is a growing number of action possibilities during the game. Each game will be different, presenting new choices and opportunities.

Includes 2 extra variants for more tactics and challenge!
