Holmes: Sherlock & Mycroft – The Brothers Face Off 🕵️🔍

For the first time, the most brilliant minds in London go head to head. Holmes: Sherlock & Mycroft by Diego Ibáñez, illustrated by Pedro Soto and published by Devir, is a duel for exactly 2 players aged 10 and up, in about 30 minutes.

A young worker is suspected of a terrible attack. Mycroft, in the service of the Crown, must investigate his links to anarchist groups – while his brother Sherlock has been hired by the boy’s parents to prove his innocence. A game lasts seven days of investigation. Each day, famous characters from Arthur Conan Doyle’s books appear in London. Move your action tokens from character to character to use their special abilities – but never two tokens on the same character – and collect Evidence cards and Investigation tokens.
