Sherlock Holmes Vs Jack the Ripper - Part 39 

One of the most terrorifying things about how Levy went about depicting it, chilling thats for. haunting to several points

I love his explanation of why Jack the Ripper was never caught.

Even though this is a fictionalized deduction, I like to believe this is the true conclusion, seeing how Sherlock Holmes is the only person who could figure it all out.

T^T I'm so glad someone had uploaded these. My computer randomly restarted after a good amount of gameplay only 30 minutes from the end so I was able to watch it here.

Thank you so much for uploading all these vids...watched them like a movie, and thoroughly enjoyed it!!!

You are amazing !!! thank you for helped me through of the hard scenes!!! thank you again !

Great game, and great walkthrough man! Helped me a lot!

Best Walkthourgh I've ever follow !!!! Thank you SO MUCH. Just got my 1000/1000 :)

I love that the most dramatic part of the game is raining. I loved this, great job if it wasnt for this walkthrough i would have never finished the game. Thanks! :)

I'm a big fan of Sherlock Holmes, I have seen all your videos on this game, I've loved, and I encourage you to do all the videos of the trilogy, I have, and I have I spent at least a thousand times. I like that were to make and I can not find any. Good luck.

Well done man, I really enjoyed this playthrough! Very well done, indeed!!!

nice. thx for all your hard work!

Thnaks a lot for all videos. So thanks!! Im from spain

Amazing i never even herd of jacob leavy till i watched the play through well done

Definently! It kinda creeped me out when he was slashing his blade around like he was actually killing someone!

5:45 jack the ripper was a good mime lmao

Great game, thanks for the walkthrough

thank you for all of this.

: I must say that this is an amazing playthrough. Well done to you. It was like watching a movie for me. I loved it tons!! It was so creepy that afterwards... I kept looking behind me. You played it fantastically. Oh, man. I loved watching it and will be watching it frequently as I must admit, it is so creepy I dont think I wanna play it myself. Lol, again congrats to you adventuregamefan Thank you, Verity135

the easiest 1000 achievements points i ever got thanks for making the video

Yes. They discuss how everything went,and we see how Jack images his kills. But in rl, the real Jack hasn't been caught ever.

Wonderful end! ^^ Thanks for uploading!

this game was really interesting to play, a classic i would say! :D

Hi. I am Jacob Levy’s great great granddaughter. There’s no evidence that my ancestor did what’s depicted here, and historians consider it highly unlikely. If anyone would like to learn more, you can listen to episode 15 of the podcast “Bad Women: The Ripper Retold”.

At 5:52 I think Levy could have made a good living as a mime artist.

And notice my wording. "RELOCATED to Whitechapel." As Holmes himself pointed out, what happened was not an increase in numbers, but a repositioning the numbers on hand. They did have the necessary numbers working for Sctoland yard, but not located in Whitechapel at the time. Furthermore, the police coming across unsolvable crimes wasn't uncommon at the time. Consulting detectives like Holmes were used because of the lack of forensic tools and wnet away when we gained more knowledge of forensics.

I would love to know what Holmes said. After all how do you talk to a serial killer?

In fact, in the longer run, his murders did help the crime rate in reality. In exactly the way Holmes said it would. With Jack the Ripper still "on the loose" the police were still looking for him. Therefore, the crime rate steadily fell due to lack of opportunities for criminals. In fact, it's this very reason that have led some people to believe Jack the Ripper was a member of the police force or a police conspiracy. That rundown police station wasn't fictional, it really was that bad then.

i love how watsons design hasn't changed at all

Thanks for this tutorial man.

thanks for the videos i beat the game thanks to you

thank you so much

@Gathgazar And just to clarify, well never know who Jack was, but out of the the following , option 4 is the most likely scenario. 1) Queens Surgeon 2) Notable Foreigner 3) Space Alien 4) Local nobody

thank you for your help! :)

Never bring Watson to a party. He's always the downer.

Anyone know the music playing during the silent cinematic?

this was a good game. I started off not liking it much because the puzzles were too self-explanatory for the most part but I ended up really appreciating it for its dialogue and setting. after I finished it i felt strange for the rest of the day. a game that can do that to me has to be a well thought out one! the details were perfect too... except for the identity of Jack, nothing was assumed. very good way to learn and retain the facts of a historical event

now that was a great game, which i am going to buy.

@faalajf I think you got it mixed up. In the first part of the playthrough; it is suspected that he killed his victims left handed. Which is why he had a more tighter threshold on his first victim; suffocating her with his left hand and mutilating her afterward.

I think this ending made me mess my pants it was so awesome.

hey i had these thoughts as well :D lol. then remembered there were videos on youtube, so decided to check it out after had the game finished... thanks god my pc is still in more or less good condition. Btw, the game was realy good thing to spend the nights with :D will go to search for more games with Mr. Holmes and Mr. Watson (Wotson? huh)

Did you know Sherlock never said elementary my lovely watson or something like that

The riots, a little shakey but not completely unbelievable. Civilian justice of a murderous degree isn't unheard of in cases like these. And, once one person/group starts it, it could just snowball. Studies refer to majorities, not to each unique person. And all of England had a high crime rate due to the immense gap between rich and poor back then, Whitechapel was the worst even before Jack the Ripper showed up. Jack the Ripper's capture wouldn't help that problem.

It was a great game. I have played it myself and I enjoyed it ^^. Great game

The music coupled with the frantic breathing made the scene that much more horrifying(sp?)

hi :) i didn't play poirot games, but i enjoyed the game very much, it's great. it's of course creepy at times, but also exciting if you like puzzles and logic tasks. it's also funny sometimes ^^

No one really debates that, nor do they debate that Jack the Ripper was a catalyst that made it happen sooner. The basis of the police theories is that it even if it would have happened, it wasn't going to happen soon enough. Or, the more optimistic theory is that it was happening, but not fast enough. Either way, the facts, and a few biased spins, are recorded. History is one of those subjects that pops up in every field. Even you study it, just to a lesser degree than myself and others.

Some people say Jack the ripper moved to america. When the killings in London stopped, more opened up in the U.S.

Thanks you helped with with fullgamerscore in this game

Very awesome playthrough, I always loved this game, although I'm told the real life deduction was on the American Doctor actually, well so they claim. I doubt anyone will know the real truth. Well done for a Sherlock game, remember the old PC CD-ROM ones back in the day :D

I'm aware that this is a fictional computer game but having looked more into Jacob Levy he is one of the more likely suspects. Obviously Frogwares took some liberties to tie up the loose ends (there's nothing to suggest that Levy had fair hair). Look up Jacob Levy at the Jack The Ripper Casebook website.

oh yeah, my bad, i was thinking about some casebook study i was reading. apparently there was some idiot doctor who said he was left handed, solely based on the word "left" meaning evil/sinister/etc. but the proof he's right handed was because the slash marks on the victim's necks went from left to right.

It could and they did a bit, but that's not what happened in the long run. As the game demonstrates with leather Apron and Squibby, there were some civilian attempts at justice, but when the JTR incident cooled down, these went away. And during, fear grew, neighborhood watches were put into effect, prostitutes without a brothel went into hiding, and police officers were relocated to Whitechapel. Open a history book, Jack the Ripper set off a chain reaction that ultimately cleaned up Whitechapel.

Well done.

thanks! :)

i feel sad and disturbed.

The Jacob Levy theory is the first such theory that didn't sound like some wild conspiracy theory. And yes, there were plenty of suspects that had a reason to stop killing at the time Jack did, but come on, Jacob fit the descriptions given by the witnesses to a T, and he lived right at ground zero. I don't know how people can entertain theories that might be compelling in some respects but have one glaring oversight like the suspect being super tall or something.

@ebrum2010 That or Joesph Barnett who also fits the description perfectly

That is also true, but facts are hard to figure out especially since this all happened well over 120 years ago!

ripper must be doctor or butcher, no one can kill like that...

I loved this game walkthrough. except a few minor mistakes made by the game company (The real Jack the Ripper was Left-handed, and their head suspect was the doctor of the royal family who was left-handed) but I loved it anyways ;P

What do you suppose Holmes was saying to Levy when he confronted him?

After holes left the room Levy was in, it looked like he had beat the crap out of Levy, because his arm was hanging limp, and what looked like blood on the floor.

Okay when Holmes goes into talk to Jack and his lips move and there is no dialogue, is that how it is supposed to be?

@HaloSpartan300 but IRL Jack didn't strangle his victims, he only had his hand there to keep them still. and at first, they thought he cut their throats by standing in front of them, with cutmarks going right to left and a bruceing of a what looked like a left hand, but they later discovered that de cut them from behind w his left hand, holding their necks with the right hand, leaving a mark that in front looked like a left hand strangulation from the front

Dude, it's a mystery game. Any idiot can tell you that a mystery game is going to have a shit load of dialogue; witness testimonies are just as important as the physical evidence. They the job of making the grand deduction air tight as well as lead the player down the wrong track (though usually not in that order).

6.42 laugh Oo

Game designers make the scene based of other accounts or their imagination! Still alot of it was very accurate to the actual city of London and time when it took place, it was very well done!

@prizelivedude It was either the Ripper's ghost or a crazy dream. I'm sorry, that whole "I've seen the real guy's face" thing was originally a joke because I had forgotten about it. But yeah. it was supposed to be a joke.

Officers are relocated all the time in big numbers. Does the crime rate suddenly shoot up every time that happens? No. Generally a relocation only happens when a station has excess. Now, in times of crisis, this rule isn't always followed, but even then there's always a hand full of excellent officers or a bunch of qualified officers left behind. Still not really a good opportunity to commit a big crime or try more often. It remains a well protected area.

I dont know why the face at 1:51 freaks me out, but it does.

a lot of people cam to london and left when the murders stopped. ;)

Oh hes got the answers to everything, but does he look happy about answering all?

Then why did they do nothing until Jack the Ripper showed up? If you go over, there had been numerous requests for more officers prior to Jack the Ripper and nothing happened. Further, moving officers doesn't necessarily move the problem. While there are now more opportunities elsewhere, that alone doesn't make more criminals. Further, as more criminals are arrested, less officers are required in an area and are sent elsewhere. This time, as well as looking in that history book, look around.

What happened to coming back from the break you had? Its been 2 years, not 2 weeks!

Have to say, this story makes a lot of sense, especially more than From Hell. I'd like to know how much (if everything) of the facts Holmes uses to deduce Jack's identity is true (i.e. the reports detailing his age and height, etc.), and if they are, why didn't the police find him?

I liked this game

@Akim1787 Its part of the game to be silence. I think that to imprint more suspence and drama.

interesting, though someone(the name escapes me) sent letters to the police, confessing he was Jack the Ripper, i think he was arrested and executed though no one believed it was him....

Theorised by who? I'd be interested in where this is from, or perhaps who this 'private servant' was.

And it's not really a prediction when it's been inductively proven several times with sound deductive backing. It's logic at that point. And I haven't been saying this outright for the game's sake as well as your own, but: where in this game did catching Jack the Ripper seem like a good idea and Holmes seem wrong? When people were chasing Leather Apron, or Squibby?

Good work detective.. :P

Does anybody know who voiced Holmes in this game?

There was a report on tv by a ripperologist that Jacob coudnt kill Marry Kelly because of his syphilis stage.

@DrippyBrown Do you not read the description?

Is this a good game to play if your looking for a mystery/adventurous type game without having to shoot people? do you have to use our brain in this game?

all the evidence points to him. But it's not officialy accepted. The computer gane revealed the assasin! :D

well, it's creepy that 'jack' could stand for 'jacob'... but it's been 120 years...

firecard It's Walter Sickert, a famous painter of the time.

thankyou excellent guide i got 1000gs thanks to youy !!!

Well, it was a LITTLE too over dramatic is what I mean! And also I think you meant to say was "dramatic effect". The game was atleast very entertaining and it showed us that Sherlock Holmes(IF he existed) would have solved this case! (Though it is still not fully understood yet who the killer was to begin with, this was still very accurate to the actually reports from that time though)

wait.. i thought they said the murderer was left handed, but that guy held the knife in his right hand in that scene..

@xihakuix uhh wasnt it righthanded?

Is it me or Jack the Ripper looks like Simon Pegg with a moustache!! :D

what about mary kelly's husband, was always in the area, plus i found the total dismemberment of MK was like a crime of personal vengeance. he was also a fish porter

Soooo....Jacob Levy...is The Whitechapel Mime? I mean Whitechapel Killer?

It was James Maybrick.

You know, I always thought that Jack the Ripper could've been hired by Moriarty to distract the Police and Sherlock Holmes so that he can have his work undisturbed. What do YOU think?

if u watch Mystery Quest "Jack the Ripper" it proves Tumblety could hav and mostly likely did it

@Videogamer3692 well Holmes just suggested it besides i hear the next game is hounds of baskervilles
