Sherlock Holmes: Secret Cases
Victorian mystery puzzles
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Two full detective cases in one app. Crack ciphers, gather clues and unmask the culprit. Now fully playable in English and German. New mysteries in the works.
London, gaslight and fog. A man has vanished without a trace, a collector lies dead in a room locked from within. Two cases, one detective, and a keen mind that sees what others overlook: yours.
Sherlock Holmes: Secret Cases brings two complete detective stories to your pocket. Search atmospheric, hand-painted scenes for clues, decipher coded messages, reconstruct the sequence of events and confront the culprit with an airtight chain of evidence.
TWO FULL CASES
- The Shadow of Whitechapel — London, 1888. Edward has disappeared, leaving behind an enciphered letter. Follow the trail across five acts, from 221B Baker Street to the fog-bound Thames docks, and expose a shadowy figure from Moriarty's network.
- The Legacy of the Borgia Clock — Mayfair, 1889. A collector is poisoned in a locked room on the eve of an auction. Ten acts, a forged will, a hidden vault and a branching finale in which one false accusation lets the true murderer slip away.
WHAT AWAITS YOU
- Classic ciphers to break — Caesar and Vigenère, anagrams and number sequences
- Logic puzzles: reconstruct wills, disprove alibis, expose contradictory statements
- Interactive crime scenes with clues to discover
- A notebook that keeps track of every clue you gather
- A branching ending in the second case: think carefully before you accuse
- Atmospheric, painterly artwork and a period soundtrack of gaslit London
MADE FOR DETECTIVES
- No time pressure — solve at your own pace
- Progress saved automatically

Whether you love escape rooms, riddle games or classic whodunits, these cases reward patience, observation and deduction. The game is afoot.
