SEEING BUT NOT OBSERVING WITH SHERLOCK HOLMES THE CONSULTING DETECTIVE

In this article we try to convey some of our experiences of playing the narrative crime fiction tabletop game Sherlock Holmes – Consulting Detective (SHCD). This game was originally published in 1981, but our experiences are based on the playing of the first six cases of the 2012 re-release of the game by Ystari Games (2017). There are also other new editions and releases for this game, and there are some differences between them, so the experience of playing them might differ from ours.
