Dr Watson is the narrator of this story; he will guide you to the spots in London where the action takes place and will help you through some serious puzzle-solving detective work! There will be clues and interactions hidden along the way - features that are triggered and show up on your mobile screen when you get close to them.

It seems like an awesome idea- but I can't really go to a different country just to play it. Wish it had some sort of option for play in other countries.
