Robin of Sherlock

About

Robin of Sherlock is a 1985 adventure game for ZX Spectrum and Amstrad CPC. It blends mystery with irreverent humor, tasking players with solving puzzles using text commands. The game leans into its lighthearted tone, poking fun at adventure game tropes while maintaining the core puzzle-solving loop popular in the genre. Its standout trait is the cheeky script, which turns classic detective stories into a farcical romp. Though short by today’s standards, it captures the charm of 80s home computing. Fans of quirky, text-driven adventures might find it an amusing time capsule.
