[edit] Series Description
Here is a description of the series, taken from the Lozenge and Hampshire Fan Forum [2]:
Randolph Lozenge and Archibald Hampshire, the RGDs (Really Good Detectives) solve mysteries from their flat in Baker Street, owned by Mrs. Bunson. Accompanied by PC Fudge and assigned their missions by Inspector Bungham, they've encountered everything from a foreign chef to a murderous Santa! However, they always keep their cool, and, despite the eccentricity of their universe, they continue to solve any case that crosses their path.
The characters and setting are inspired by the Sherlock Holmes novels by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.[citation needed] Despite being offline for several years, the series is missed for its droll sense of humor and solid adventure gameplay.[citation needed] Its current absence from the Internet is discussed in online forums [3].
[edit] Reception
Here is what Ron Enderland said in his internet review "Bald Guy's Multimedia Site of the Week":
This week's Bald Guy Pick has a veddy British sense of humor about it. Presenting Lozenge and Hampshire. These two blokes are hot on the trail of a murderer. You follow along through an interactive game that you'll find quite amusing, as well as dreadfully addictive. When you're finished, then explore the rest of the site and enjoy the meese, amongst other distractions. Tata! [4]
