I just asked my husband if I can use his iPad for this.

I've just bought an iPhone. ><

Hopefully it will be available world wide. Happy I got a iTunes gift card for Xmas.Though can't imagine many of Sherlocks Homeless Network having iPhones and iPads.

Hope it will avaible for Android someday.

Yes. I read it on twitter. And yes, you are insane. But at least you know it.

I'll stay on the "I hope for Android"-side.

I got the same one as Sherlock in Series 3 though, which means, ideal for cosplays as well!

Oh, can´t wait to get home - it´s even available in Germany (but I couldn´t load it during work - because I´m missing wifi here)
Has someone had a first look yet?

Have just downloaded it and the opening 'welcome' from Sherlock has already made it worth the money!! Looking forward to wasting a lot of time on this one!

I just spent one hour on this app which has been created with a lot of care for visuals, music, etc. And of course you get extras - videos and voicemails - that are not available anywhere else. The games are a nice mixture of things you know - moving cars to get out of traffic jam - and logical thinking.
P.S. I played it on the iPad which is really fun because of the size.

Yep, I am with you. There is a twitter for #jointhenetwork and I will use it.

Galadriel · January 20, 2014 9:15 pm

Ah, yes - I finally got it on my iPad and it's really a treat (the voicemails, the videos... - I Love it!)

Can somebody explain the whole thing? I don't get it?
Is ist to be used in London or what?

I use Symbian so...

tardislass · January 27, 2014 10:22 am

I'm loving it. Just wasted an hour on it and I'm usually not a fan of online games. The videos and voicemails are flawless. One I got used to how to play the Unground puzzle, it became much easier. Only thing is my Mind Palace is not so big as Sherlocks.

It is 5 dollars but well worth it. Only wish there were more cases. Really fantastic!

And my board classification is so appropriate.;)

So what is it actually?

lucylove · January 29, 2014 12:57 am

Would some kind person please help out this simpleton. Sherlock would shake his head in shame. I just can't figure out the Image Unscramble game. I don't want to give spoilers, so an IM would be appreciated. The game is excellent, by the way, and I highly recommend. The main actors from the programme are in it, and it's really immersive and exciting. Well worth the price.

Wholocked · January 29, 2014 2:25 am

It's an iPhone app where you participate in cases as part of Sherlock's "Homeless Network" and it includes footage and voicemails from the cast etc. It's quite cool. I've completed it and now I have to go back and get a better score!

I'll PM you lucy

zeratul · January 29, 2014 6:56 am

So everything on the phone?
I had the feeling you need to go through real London.

Hm. Can't play it anyways, no iPhone, no Android.

Sherlock Holmes · January 29, 2014 10:00 am

Omg, it's soooooo good. Highly addictive. I love the videos and the voicemails.
