An intruder trashes Ms. Holmes’s house, leaving behind a notebook, a threat, and a cryptic calling card – five orange pips.

Someone is out to get her, and when more pips turn up at the home of a young man named Oscar Watson, it becomes clear that she isn’t the only target! Can you help Sharlotte Holmes and her new friend solve the mystery of the orange pips and track down the culprit before their time runs out? Find out in this brain-teasing Hidden-Object Puzzle Adventure!

You are soon to find out and if like me, will have fun doing so. I own the CE and feel that "Five Orange Pips" has a better story than the first release. I enjoyed this game a lot and although it has only three chapters, there is plenty to do. Without the Bonus Chapter it may be just a few hours long. I play slowly to prolong the fun and enjoy the scenery so the SE would still be fine with me. ...Show more
You are soon to find out and if like me, will have fun doing so. I own the CE and feel that "Five Orange Pips" has a better story than the first release. I enjoyed this game a lot and although it has only three chapters, there is plenty to do. Without the Bonus Chapter it may be just a few hours long. I play slowly to prolong the fun and enjoy the scenery so the SE would still be fine with me.
The HOGs and puzzles were entertaining and not terribly difficult. But these were all average challenge, keeping it possible for beginners to enjoy without much frustration. The graphics were very nice, excellent coloring and I liked the characters. A friend, who happens to be Doctor Watson's grandson, has joined Ms. Holmes to help solve the mystery at hand since he also received 5 orange pips.
It all makes a fun and interesting little mystery game, at least for me. There are times when I just don't need or want all the bells and whistles or nonsensical stories and I think we have far too many demonic type games. So Ms Holmes provides that necessary little change that I find refreshing. Show less
I recommend this game!

I found that once I was inside the house in the living room after having collected quite a bit in my inventory, nothing worked. The knob wouldn't attach to the door, the birds wouldn't attach to the box, I couldn't put the oven mitt on and break the window. I thought I must be doing something wrong so looked at the walkthrough and I was doing it right but it just didn't work so after about 25 ...Show more
I found that once I was inside the house in the living room after having collected quite a bit in my inventory, nothing worked. The knob wouldn't attach to the door, the birds wouldn't attach to the box, I couldn't put the oven mitt on and break the window. I thought I must be doing something wrong so looked at the walkthrough and I was doing it right but it just didn't work so after about 25 minutes I had no options and had to give it up. Never had this problem with any other game so I guess it's a glitch in the game. I'll try to reload maybe but if you try and have the same result - it's not just you. Show less

18 Main Game Scene Locations +6 Bonus Chapter
Difficulty Range: Beginner
I knew I was in for a PIP of a time when I pulled into my own driveway to discover someone had taken the time to bury something in my rose garden whilst burglarizing my house. I noticed this because I had to retrieve one of the emblem initials to my mailbox I keep under the thorny flowers because all mailboxes in Elephant Games world require emblem initials, one of which I keep with me, naturally, inside my purse (which usually requires a signet ring, which I usually don't have, or a zipper, which always breaks...you know the M.O) I have to remove GOO and paint, solve an ANT problem, de-lockpick my front door, search for missing books, find Keys, replace a toolbox emblem with a Hammer and Wrench that looks almost identical to the emblem I replace with the Fork & Spoon, remove rust that's been there longer than the cabinet itself, pick the lock on my own purse, find and replace my own drawer handle, find and replace my cabinet's specialized Caduceus symbol, find something to fetch an important item that is under my fridge as if I'd even think to look there in real life, remove nails, place more emblems, cut ropes, find more emblems, jimmy more latches....and this my friends all takes place within TWO SCENES! ...Holy Orange PIPS!
☽☾Morphing Objects/Collectibles: (CE version only)☼
There are 26 Morphing Objects, one per scene. Although not super challenging to spot, they did a decent job with not-so-obvious object selection and size. Each scene also has Zoom-Zone Jigsaw Puzzle Piece that allows you to assemble 4 Screensavers, Two 12 Piece Jigsaw's & Two 9 Piece Jigsaws. Some of the scenes also have Sharlotte Holmes Collectibles with descriptions available but there is no option available to return to the scenes to pick up any missed collectibles.
◔Hidden Object Scenes◕
There are only 8 Hidden Object Scenes +7 in the CE Bonus Chapter, + 4 Zoom-Zone HO's. These were some of the least creative, unimaginative, most boring un-Hidden Object Scenes I've ever seen. They are located in boring locations, the objects are at times difficult to tell what they actually are and the scenes are dark and void of color. There was one Keyword in Sentence Find, one Swatch Find, one Replace Items into the Scene, one Multiple Weapon's Find, and one Matching Pairs, the rest were just Listed Items and totally boring.
♙Mini-Games♙
There are 14 Mini-Games +4 in the CE Bonus Chapter. They are the same games offered in the last game by Elephant Games. Here are a few examples:
1-Rotate cylinders to create a path for each bird from left to right.
2-Glue fragments, rotate & place into highlighted slots.
3-Follow the recipe according to the picture.
4-Fold the map vertically & horizontally.
5-Place the orbs into the form so the lines fit into the sockets.
(these are the same exact games that were in Grim tales a few weeks ago)
✯Bonus Chapter (Collector's Edition version only)✯
Sharlotte Holmes arrives at Phillip Hayes & Susie's Wedding just in time to see Susie Slip out the back Jack. Look's like she made some new plans and Ran. She left behind her Wedding Ring Bling, but not before asking her Honey for some Money...Ding!. Nuting weird suspected 'cept that letter burning thing? Ouch, Susie may just want to keep on running...This is a very short chapter taking place over 6 scenes with just 4 mini-games and 7 hidden object scenes (including smaller zoom-zones) You will complete the final 3 Collectibles, 8 Morphs, and 12 Zoom Zone Jigsaw Puzzle Pieces which allows you to complete the final 12 piece puzzle Jigsaw Puzzle Screensaver.
♕Collector's Edition Extra's♕
8 Wallpapers, 8 Concept Art Pictures, 5 Music Soundtracks, 23 Achievements, Archives with 12 Replayable Mini-Games and 11 Hidden Object Scenes 12Sharlotte Holmes Collectibles, 26 Morphing Objects, 42 Zoom-Zone Jigsaw Puzzle Pieces, 4 Screensavers, 3 Main Chapters +Bonus Chapter and a Built-In Strategy Guide.

This story is insulting to Holmes fans, and clearly attempting to just cash in on the name.
On top of all that, it was simply boring - and short. There was no challenge in any of the puzzles, and the story itself went nowhere, with no explanation of the orange pips idea or why we were supposed to care. And it ended abruptly. I'd give it zero stars, if I could, I feel totally ripped off.
