It reminds me of Unstoppable Gorg. It's a different genre (ufo tower defense) but it also has the 50's sci fi b-movie stuff going on.

Oh man, this game looks great. I could see this as a legit contender for GOTY 2016 and I haven't even played it yet.

Check out Arkham Investigator for a Lovecraftian take Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective. It's free to download (print & play) and there is also a full board game of it coming out in 2016.

I played the FMV version of Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective and quite loved it. Her Story did scratch that same itch for me.

There was also a semi-recently released board game called Witness that did something similar to the Sherlock Holmes game. It was based on a Belgian comic called Blake & Mortimer It was featured on http://www.shutupandsitdown.com/. (Haven't played it myself though)
