It is the 1920s, and in a sleepy Sussex village, beekeeper and former world's greatest detective Sherlock Holmes (James Quinn, Apostasy), is trying to arrange a pleasant clifftop picnic for his lifelong companion Dr Watson (Andrew James Spooner, Muppets Most Wanted). The only problem is that a series of mysteries keep getting in the way!

Features

Explore a seaside town It’s the day of the village fete, a suspicious new neighbour has taken a lease on  a long-abandoned cottage and something strange is happening down on the  beach…

Interrogate and befriend a fully professionally voice-acted cast of eccentric characters including a clown with a tragic past (Felix Trench, Wooden Overcoats), the local leader of the women's institute (Alison Skilbeck, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, (yes that one)) budding young naturalist (Alice Osmanski, Sanditon), a wannabe showman (Layla Katib, Victoriocity) and a prickly police officer. And lots more. I love this cast to bits.

Make deductions and decisions. Puzzles have multiple solutions, some of which may please your neighbours more than others.  What path will you choose? Who will you enlist to help you?

Phone for help of you get stuck! Your older brother Mycroft (Richard Rycroft, Game of Thrones) is always ready to act as your consultant, just give him a call at his club if you need a hint.

What if Resident Evil 7 looked like an old school adventure game?

Cherry Coke Presents: The Lost Island of Alanna (Windows/Classic Mac, 1998)

The Coca-Cola Company's very own Myst-like; hints were featured in ads and mainly on bottles of Cherry Cola. You can download it here, and run it on modern systems by following the instructions below the images.

Open this in-browser emulator.

Drag the .iso file you downloaded onto the emulated desktop.

Open the new icon that appears. Don't bother with the installer - open the folder beneath it and run the game.

IMPORTANT: Once you find the book, to circumvent a crash bug, do NOT click on it on the right-hand column (representing objects in hand) while viewing the inventory screen, which normally moves objects into the inventory.
