It's releasing in the US on the 25th September, for XBox and PS3, and PC download.

It released today in Europe.

If you're interested and want a boxed PC version, see if Dave at Interact has any left -- it's the last game he'll be selling and he only has a few copies.

Hello, I started the game it looks fantastic, my only problem is the control keys and I see in your walkthrough that you can play it either by mouse or keyboard, I prefer to use just the mouse is it possible and how Thanks

Hi dina,

If you're still in the tutorial mode at the start of the game (in the room, searching for the necklace), then you need to follow the onscreen instructions for movement, initially.

You can switch between first and third person by pressing the R button on your keyboard.

In first person you can move around by press-holding your left mouse button.

In third person (for the tutorial) you move with the keyboard & mouse.

Once you're playing the main game out of tutorial, you can play third person using mouse only, if that's what you prefer, and you don't need to do anything to set this up other than by switching to this mode with your R key.

Yahoo !!

What a lovely surprise for us all, MaG !! Thank you so much !!

And thanks to Frogwares too - for the permission

Mad,

You will love this game.
Remember our Rushes did the English dialogue on this game - so you can hear her genius.

Hello!
Yes I love the game too. It is also very long.
A german translation of the walkthrough is posted
at Gamepad.de

Oooops !! Sorry, MaG. I didn't spot your reply till now

But wonderful re Rushes !!

I've actually got the game running on my old XP machine - which is absolutely amazing - and I've already played a little of it.
But as I mentioned to Rushes on the Glitches Board, I am struggling with the navigation/imteraction. I find it really confusing

Cheers.

Mad

I've just replied to you over on that thread, Mad.

I've made it through the intro but I have a constant WASD key pad showing and I can't interact on anything. Is this a glitch?

Thanks, Jesse.

Drummerboy,

The intro is a tutorial.

Just to add to MaG's post:

Press the R on your keyboard a few times until Holmes is in third person and you have a pipe as your cursor. Then click an area onscreen and Holmes will move to it. That should cancel out the navigation box and move you on to the next point. You do need to follow the tutorial instructions that appear.

What a super game. Well worth the price.

Thanks all. The "R" button worked.

I re-started the game and right-clicked to bring up the inventory and clicked on the movie camera. That toggled 1st/3rd-person views as well (the pipe and magifying glass icons appeared). Now I can get going!

BTW, phenomenal walkthrough Mag. Holy cow! Looks like a long and enjoyable venture judging by your incredible detail.

Best regards, Jesse.

Glad that helped you, Jesse. Have fun with the game.

Where is the game available, MaG? Haven't been able to find it...
