Story
Sherlock is bored. None of the recent cases have been interesting enough to catch his attention.
Until one day, when Sherlock receives a message from Moriarty that changes everything.
What at first appears to be a classical "damsel in distress" situation, turns into a confrontation with his inner demons. Forced to play Moriarty's insidious game, Sherlock deduces his way through an old film studio to finally face his arch nemesis. As players navigate their way through different rooms, they will need to face Sherlocks inner demons.
Moriarty’s true motives remain hidden and reveal only gradually when progressing through the different escape rooms. An engaging storyline and Shyamalan-like plot twist will keep players hooked from start to finish.
