The sherlock holmes tiles light up in a sequence — repeat it back to climb the rounds.

About the Sherlock Holmes Sequence Memory Game

A Simon-style pattern game. Tiles light up one after another in a sequence that grows longer every round. Watch carefully, repeat the sequence by tapping the tiles in order, and see how many rounds you can survive.

Conan Doyle's original Sherlock Holmes stories are in the public domain, so we're free to celebrate the great detective properly. Deerstalkers, magnifying glasses, dossiers and the fog of Victorian London await.

How to Play

  • Press Start and watch the tiles light up in order.
  • When the sequence finishes, tap the same tiles in the same order.
  • Each round adds one more step to the sequence.
  • One wrong tap ends the run — your best round is your score.

Why Play Sequence Memory?

  • Trains working memory and serial recall
  • Endless difficulty curve — the game grows with you
  • Quick rounds make it a perfect 2-minute brain break
