Epilepsy warning INTRODUCTION
Some people are likely to suffer from epileptic attacks, or loss of consciousness,
particularly when looking at some types of strong flashing lights: rapid succession
of images or repetition of simple geometric shapes, flashes or explosions.
Such people leave themselves open to the risk of attacks when playing some
video games which include such stimulation, even if they have no medical history
or have never experienced such attacks themselves.
If you or a member of your family have already displayed symptoms associated
with epilepsy (attacks or loss of consciousness) when faced with flashing lights,
consult your doctor before using the product. Parents should pay particular atten-
tion to their children when they are playing with video games.
If you or your child displays one of the following symptoms: vertigo, blurred
vision, eye or muscle spasms, disorientation, uncontrollable movements or convul-
sions, or brief loss of consciousness, YOU MUST STOP PLAYING IMMEDIATELY and
consult a doctor.

"Is something wrong Holmes? You are not even listening to me!"
- "Boredom my dear Watson, boredom…"
- "Come on Holmes, it's only a passing phase. You know full well that sooner or later, some-
thing extraordinary will happen in or around London, and that your prodigious talent will be
needed to bring it to a happy conclusion, while at the same time satisfying your need for some
intellectual gymnastics."
Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson in Baker Street
How right you are my dear Watson!
Indeed, it soon becomes clear that the new case which, according to Watson, should
"entertain" the great detective, is the darkest case of his brilliant career.
On the edge of reason…
The investigation begins in the purest Holmes
style with a search for clues about the myste-
rious disappearance of a
young domestic servant.
What everybody consi-
dered to be a simple
runaway, was in Holmes'
eyes a sombre kidnap-
ping.
Holmes' theory would
be confirmed when he discovered that similar cases had
been reported in the press and also by some people
who had been questioned. There was therefore no lon-
ger any doubt, only a powerful organisation would be
able to plan these kidnappings… But to what end, as
there is no apparent connection between the disap-
pearances and no ransom has yet been demanded.
The next stage of the investigation, and the discove-
ry of macabre signs, showed that behind this mys-
terious organisation was hidden a strange, distur-
bing sect - one which worshipped the god Cthulhu
and operated on the edge of reason.

4.2 Sherlock Holmes' analysis table

Holmes is excellent at chemistry and must spend time analysing clues which have
been collected. You too can analyse the clues you have found. Click on the chair in
front of the analysis table to sit on it.

Microscope:
To place a clue under the microscope, you must select the object in the inventory
and then click on the microscope.
You can then proceed with the analysis.
- Click on the object to allow Holmes to make a comment
- If necessary, use the clip to separate or remove elements
- If required, use the scalpel to make an incision
Detailed results from your observations will be placed in the report section of your
notebook/portfolio.

The chemical analyser:

To carry out a chemical analysis, you need to use Sherlock Holmes' new machine.
Begin by picking up the small bottles on the table (dissolving agent, purified water,
acid, detergent…) and then place your clue in the receptacle. You can:
- Pour a product over the evidence by selecting a bottle from your
inventory, then wait for Sherlock Holmes' response
- Use heat by warming up your mixture. Use the matches on the burner
and then wait for Sherlock Holmes' response.
NB: several clues require several types of analysis.

Following Watson's departure:
• Pick up the box of matches on the writing desk by clicking on it using
the left mouse button. The matches are now in your inventory. You can
