Asmodee will release Space Cowboys’ Watson & Holmes competitive detective game of deduction and intrigue in early 2017.
The game is designed by Jesus Torres Castro (Pandemic Iberia). Players take the roles of aspiring detectives who will work alongside Sherlock Holmes to solve a series of cases. Players must visit locations, speak with witnesses, and decipher clues before coming to their own conclusions, independent of the other players. When a player thinks they’ve figured out the mystery, they must present their facts to Holmes and Dr. Watson. If they are correct, they win the game. If they are wrong, the game continues until one of the remaining detectives comes to the correct conclusion. The game includes 13 cases.
The box contains 13 Case Booklets, 13 Envelopes, 206 Location Cards, 7 Player Pawns and 7 Standees, 67 Carriage Tokens, 6 Police Tokens, 6 Call Off Tokens, 2 Lockpick Tokens, 8 Character Cards, 1 Holmes Card, 1 Watson Card, 1 Carriage Stop Card, 1 Wiggins Token and 1 Start Player Token. The game is for 2 – 7 players, ages 12 and up, and plays in 45 – 75 minutes. MSRP is $59.99.
