Sherlock Holmes Chapter One | Postcards from Cordona Part 2
Dear Sherry,
Our adventure to Cordona draws ever closer, and I, for one, cannot wait to see what mischief we can bring to that little island. I’m writing to you because I found more postcards in the mail today, they seem to offer a nice little slice of Cordona life. Looks like we’re going to have to get our shoes dirty Sherry, if that’s something you can stand.
It sure looks like a Mediterranean paradise filled with all those beautiful, exotic people, but we all know that beautiful islands have their dark mysteries just waiting to be uncovered…
I heard that they're going to be talking about us soon. I hope they say all good things about us Sherry.
We’ll be seeing each other very soon, but if you need me, I’m always here for you.
Today is a special day in our offices. As of right now, this moment (well, roughly this moment) our studio is 21 years old. Pretty much, it’s our birthday, and we’re having a party.
It’s been 21 years of work, commitment, dedication, sweat, moments of tears and also of happiness. We have a whole bank filled with stories and memories from all of these years. Perhaps one day we’ll share them with you over coffee, or a blog post.
But one thing we have to say today is this. Thank you, yes you!, for all your support, your trust, and for being the best community and fandom we could ever ask for.
On this special occasion, we have prepared a huge sale for all our games just for you. The sale will last from 2nd of August to 16th of August 2021 right here on Steam. Get ready, mark these dates in your calendar, and prepare yourself for an 80% discount! Maybe there’s a game missing from your collection?
Enjoy the sale, thanks for your continuous support, and speak to you soon!

Hello detectives,
We’re working hard behind the scenes on Sherlock Holmes Chapter One and soon we’ll be showing you even more of the game. To tie you over, here are some new screenshots straight from the game.
Harbour - one of the Cordona districts.
Searching for clues at a murder scene.
Some tasks might require a slightly more direct approach.
Sometimes you just have to take a look at a certain object in more detail.

Sherlock Holmes Chapter One | Sherlock’s Many Faces
Hello Sherry,
I won’t write too much on the above subject, as frankly, this video will do a much better job of it. In short, we need to get to know the island and its people. It’ll help us blend in with the crowd better, which in turn will let us gain their trust and reveal vital information to the case.
Observe it all in action below Sherlock.
[previewyoutube="36GzVZl8z60;full"] We’ll be arriving at Cordona soon, Sherry. I cannot wait to see what mischief we will get up to on that island.
Soon we will arrive in Cordona. I know what you are thinking, Sherry, but remember that there is an important reason why we’re going there. I hope that you’re ready for what awaits.
[previewyoutube="2W4IfoXjUA4;full"] This is the most difficult task you will face. Remember though, no matter what will happen, I will always be by your side.
Due to the license agreement between us and Nacon coming to an end, we needed to release a patch that updates the copyright legal lines and credits within the game. Unfortunately due to this change, any save files that you might currently have will no longer properly work.
However, we do have two workarounds prepared for you.
First one would allow you to download the save games we have provided for you. In the link below, you will find save files for all the cases, as well as instructions on how to install and access them in the game.
The second workaround is to access your own save games from an older build of the game. Again, in the same link we provided above, leading to the Frogwares support site, you will find instructions on how to access your save files from another build of the game by editing the game’s Steam settings. This solution is provided for 30 days after that we will remove this branch.
We know that this is a bit of an inconvenience, so to make it up to you, we want to give you a little token of our appreciation. If you follow the link below, you will find a folder filled with brand new 4K wallpapers from our upcoming release Sherlock Holmes Chapter One. We hope that they will adorn your desktop nicely!
Once again, apologies for the inconvenience. And do keep in mind that if you need help, don’t be afraid to ask! And let us know what you think of the wallpapers too.
Until next time, Your Frogwares Team
Sherlock Holmes Chapter One | Q&A Part 2
Dear Holmes,
It seems there are more and more questions popping about you and I, and our time in Cordona. I never knew that we would be the talk of the town so soon after arriving. Seems our London charm is rubbing off on this little island. Our friends at Frogwares have made another Q&A video about us. Might be worth checking out if you’re curious.
[previewyoutube="KM2e4lNBcQU;full"] That’s it from me, Sherry. Heard there’s a rather interesting get-together happening in one of the affluent mansions just off the center of the town. I’ve always been curious what the so-called rich and powerful are up to. We should take a look at it. One thing that I can confirm is that no matter how much money you have, you can’t buy taste. Something that I shouldn’t have said at Mrs. Robbin’s London get-together a few months back...
Stay safe Sherry. We will pay a visit to your mother real soon. I promise.
Yours truly,
Jon

Hello Sherry,
Don’t you start to feel a bit cooped up in this place? I mean, just look at this island, look out the window! But instead, you insist on staying in. C’mon, why don’t you and I put on our Sunday best, go out, and get up to some mischief.
[previewyoutube="arY6Y_xnJdI;full"]
See, wasn’t this fun Sherry. I told you it was worth going out! And remember. No matter what happens, I’ll be here. You do know this right? There’s a lot that awaits you, a lot that you might’ve intentionally forgotten. I’ll be here Sherlock. You and me, we need to stick together.
I hope you liked our little adventure. And I’ll be speaking with you really soon.

Sherlock Holmes Chapter One | Playtime, voice cast, disguise and more news!
Hello Holmes,
It seems that quite a few individuals have been asking all sorts of questions about you. Your arrival on the island has definitely got people talking. I’ve just found out that the good folks at Frogwares have collated some of those questions from “social media”, whatever that is, and created this extensive answer video for you to take a look at. It should give you more of an idea of what’s coming ahead in your next adventure.
[previewyoutube="nM94LTzcOsc;full"]
I’m glad to hear that you’re doing well, Sherry, even though the times are “testing” to say the least. Don’t worry, I’ll be speaking with you very soon. And I’m always here when you need me.
