I wanted to add (or find if it's already there) an entry to Good Bad Bugs for the creepy, teleporting Watson in Sherlock Holmes Nemesis, but having never played it, I'm not sure what genre to call it. Any suggestions?

It's an adventure game, isn't it? Or possibly horror, because teleporting Watson is scary.

So, "Adventure" doesn't exist as a category on that page. Action Adventure then?

Given the Watson bug, is it any wonder why this game is called Sherlock Holmes: Nemesis?

I don't think it's a bug. Just the developpers being lazy ("meh, not feeling like programming a pathfinding A I today...") without realizing you now are in a remake of Blink.

Anyway, if there is a Lucasarts, Intercom or Sierra example in another folder, I think that should go there.

Yeah, not a bug, but more convenient to just refer to it as that.

I still just find the Nemesis subtitle amusing.
