If Sherlock Holmes wants to solve this one, he's going to have to interrogate a truly horrible child's toy.

. It doesn't always hit, but it's the weird stuff that sticks with you—bringing it to the fore with a case of occultism and dark rituals feels like the studio leaning into its house style.That style is immediately noticeable as Watson arrives at a creepy asylum in my hands-on demo. When he introduces himself at the desk and meets the head doctor, queasy close-ups build a campy horror atmosphere that only escalates over the course of the level.

But even then it subverts my expectations. As part of my investigation—concerning a sinister series of kidnappings that seems to be operating out of the building—I end up cross-examining a patient who believes her evil doll talks to her. It's an uncomfortable stereotype of someone suffering from delusions—until the camera jerkily zooms in on the doll's face, and suddenly Sherlock is interrogating a talking inanimate object.
