Disappointed :(
For the clue lover, this game can be a little disappointing. I thought it was going to be the original clue board game where u can play against the comp or a friend... But it's not! It's is 1 person an only has 10 crimes to solve... Not a great deal considering it's price!! This is not a board game!!
Interesting detective game using Clue characters
As the other reviewers said, this is not the original Clue boardgame (which is fine for me -- never liked that game format much anyway). It uses the setting and characters, but plays more like a classical logic game. In short, one wanders around Mr. Boddy's house interviewing people, who give statements of fact and point to objects to search, which in turn yield more facts. When every fact has been revealed (or one has run out of time), a consistent picture of the house at the time of the crime can be reconstructed, placing characters and weapons around the house and taking care that no statement is contradicted. In the end, the only possible arrangement of characters and weapons that does not contradict any statement will reveal a murderer, with a particular weapon, in a particular room. This game was a fun exercise of deductive reasoning, trying to reconcile statements with each other and eliminating possibilities -- vaguely Sherlockian in execution. However, it is quite simplistic: witnesses will never give false testimony; weapons are always found in the room that they were located at the time of the crime; etc. This would work well in an abstract logic game, where it is easy to assume that the given facts of a problem are always true. However, it requires quite a lot of suspension-of-disbelief to do this for a detective game, when all the suspects involved are slick, intelligent, deceitful people. Suspects will even, on occasion, give themselves away quite bluntly (and hilariously). Scarlet, for example, once informed me that the murderer was a woman, when there was only one woman in that particular assignment: herself. Perhaps for future versions, it might be more fun to have a more advanced ruleset. For example, suspects may try to deliberately mislead you, but one might detect a contradiction in their statements, fluster them using secrets revealed about them by others, attack their alibis, etc. Still, for a mobile phone game, Clue kept me amused on my train commutes this week, and for that, I'm pleased.
Boring
I was expecting the board game and I got something that only takes a minute to play. This was a waste of money! Do NOT buy this!
