Becoming Professor Moriarty’s Probability

"Becoming Professor Moriarty’s Probability" by Kim Mamo is a Sherlock Holmes-inspired mystery gal game where the protagonist navigates a twisted world. The game's development is critically examined, focusing on fulfilling Professor Moriarty's probability and the protagonist becoming "that man" for Holmes, creating a love-hate relationship. The narrative includes events such as a sham marriage with Watson, a confession from Inspector Lestrade, and being kidnapped by Phantom Thief Lupin. Through these experiences, the protagonist becomes the very probability of this world. The story features a beautiful female lead, a clingy lover, and a cunning protagonist. Themes explored include contracts, detectives, dragons, a famous protagonist, misunderstandings, a mysterious past, obsessive love, organized crime, race change, racism, saves, strong love interests, vampires, and yandere elements. The protagonist is described as passive and afraid of women and the future, often worrying and engaging in monologues. Despite initial criticisms of the early chapters being "retarded" and "poison," potential improvement is noted as the protagonist's interactions with Holmes evolve. The story ultimately progresses through 32 chapters, described as "mid." Notably, all major characters including Sherlock, his brother, Watson, Lestrade, and Lupin are genderbent.
