Critics agree that the remake of Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened surpassed the original game of 2007 and successfully combines elements of the horror works of Howard Ph. Lovecraft with detective stories of Arthur Conan Doyle.

On the downside, reviewers noted the slightly monotonous gameplay, the small number of side quests and the technical issues present.

Overall, it's not a bad game for Sherlock Holmes fans and fans of Frogwares games.
