The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I figure out which judge is the right one?
1 of 8: Notice that under each of the three judges' pictures, there's a list of the clues you found on the hat.
2 of 8: You can click on an item on a list to check it, and then again to uncheck it.
3 of 8: To figure out which items to check for a particular judge, use the magnifying glass on the judge's picture.
4 of 8: For instance, examining the leftmost judge's face, you'll see that he wears glasses, and that his hair isn't gray (judging by his moustache and beard).
5 of 8: Examining his left hand (your right), you'll see a wedding ring and a cigar, so he's married and smokes cigars.
6 of 8: There's no hat in the picture, and we can assume there would be if he wore one regularly.
7 of 8: So for him, you'll need to check "Smokes a cigar," "Wears glasses," and "Married."
8 of 8: Repeat the process on the other two judges until you get their checklists completed, too. See below for their answers.
