Frogwares Teases A Switch Port Of Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments
Exceedingly elementary, dear Watson
Developer Frogwares has put out a festive tweet with a none-too-subtle clue that one of its most celebrated games may be headed to Switch.
The studio — famous for its long line of Sherlock Holmes mystery games, and most recently for The Sinking City — left a hint in a festive tweet (primarily promoting the non-Switch title Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One) that suggests Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments may be getting the Switch port treatment in the near future.
As you can see from the tweet below, the accompanying image features a Switch-like device scrawled onto the floor with chalk, with 'C&P' written on the screen:
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all!?

Let's get a little close-up of that, shall we?
Yep. Despite this Switch facsimile featuring not one but two D-pads across both Joy-Con, you really don't need to be much of a Sherlock to divine the significance of this clue. Even Watson could get this one.
If you're unfamiliar with the game, it launched on PC and consoles back in 2014 and was widely acclaimed as a particularly fine adventure/detective/mystery game. It's currently got a Very Positive rating on Steam, so it's good news to hear that it's been framed for a Switch port.
Let us know below if there's anything else this could possibly signify, and if you're excited to see this one coming to Switch.
