221 B Baker Street includes twenty original Sherlock Holmes adventures written especially for this game.
221 B Baker Street is the London address of the world's most celebrated detective, Sherlock Holmes, and his dedicated companion, Dr. Watson. In this game, players start at 221 B and travel through the streets and alleys of Victorian London gathering clues while attempting to solve some of the most intriguing cases Holmes and Watson have ever faced.
Each player assumes the role of Holmes and matches wits with the other players to determine who possesses the most skillful deductive powers. The first player to figure out the correct answers to a particular mystery or crime, return to 221 B and reveal the solution in the winner.
The game can also be played with teams or as a cooperative game, with all players teaming up as Baker Street Irregulars to help Holmes solve the case. When played this way, the group bands together to decide which of the fourteen locations to visit first, and the meaning of each clue is discussed by the group. (The game can also be played solitaire.)
