221B Baker Street Game Expansion Download

221B Baker Street is a solid computer version of an underrated board game of the same name, which is similar to Clue! But with more challenging cases and innovations that evoke the feel of Holmesian London. As in the classic board game, up to 4 players first choose their alter egos from main characters in the classic series, including Holmes himself. Players then take turns travel through Victorian London gathering clues and solving mini-mysteries such as The Coded Message, The Clerk's Demise, and The Nettlesome Bride.

Like its board game counterpart, 221B Baker Street is full of innovative features. For example, you can use a Scotland Yard badge to seal off a site you've already visited, and use a Skeleton Key to unlock any location in the game. The mysteries are all quite short, but more involved than those in Clue! Although the goals are similar (i.e. You must deduce the killer's identity, the murder weapon, and motive). There are 30 mini-mysteries in the game, although they don't differ that much from one another. Still, with a solid user interface, bright, attractive graphics, and a large number of cases appropriate to the era, 221B Baker Street is a very faithful reproduction of the board game that sleuths of all levels will enjoy.

Review By HOTUD.

Some of you may know the board game '221 b Baker Street - the master detective game' by Gibson's Games which is sold e.g. In the souvenir shop of the Sherlock Holmes museum in London. There are two versions, a pocket-sized one with 20 cases and a larger one with 40 cases. In the booklet which came with latter, it was stated that one could purchase additional cases (i.e. Several case cards and a booklet with clues and solutions). However, when I wrote to Gibson's Games earlier this year, they answered that these additional cases were out of stock, were not being reprinted due to lack of demand (which I doubt a bit), and they did not know where one could still obtain them from. Would anybody who reads this newsgroup know a source for additional cases for this game, or could point me to some more appropriate place to ask?

Jan-Martin Michael Evans 14.7.02. First place to try would be Here's a link to one of the completed auctions. I believe that there were a total of 3 sets published for the Gibson edition and 9 for the Hansen games edition. I think they're compatible.

The ones shown on the auction page of the link above is a version I hadn't seen before, perhaps the Gibson version. The ones I'm familiar with have much paler colors on the cover. There don't appear to be any up for sale currently on eBay. Be sure to check all the listings for the actual board game, of which there always quite a few being sold. Some sellers will be including one or more of the expansions with the game. There are also any number of websites selling vintage, out-of-print games. Has expansion sets 2 to 9 for the Hansen edition edition listed.
