Amazon.com Review Clue has been a fiendishly clever board game for almost 60 years, and this DVD edition adds a whole new level of enjoyment to the deductive fun. Experienced Clue-doers will recognize the floor plan layout of the game board, as well as the cards and character pieces. What they might not recognize this time is the crime: The game's central intrigue has been downgraded from murder to a more family-friendly larceny. It's up to players to figure out which of Mr. Boddy's guests is the thief, which item was stolen, as well as the time and location of the theft. The enclosed DVD serves as game master, with animated butler and inspector characters prompting you with questions and/or doling out clues. It may seem like a gimmick at first, but there are several smart ways in which the DVD makes set-up a snap and games both fair and interesting. Aside from the bells and whistles, this is Clue. The object of the game is to gather clues without giving away too much information to the other players. Once you feel you've adequately sussed out the case, you can test your theory in secrecy through the DVD menu and the special decoder lens. If you're correct, you'll get a satisfying detective show round-up of how all the clues work together to eliminate all of the other possibilities. If you're wrong, you're going to have to show some of your info to the other players. There are ten different mysteries built into the game plus a general game that is more like the traditional Clue board game. It comes with game cards, decoder magnifying glass, DVD disc, game board, four plastic locks, case file envelope, and 10 suspect pawns. --Porter B. Hall

Excellent Game Posted 02 October 2008
This is a wonderful game. It really enhances the old fashion way of playing the game. Much more fun and enjoyable. My entire family likes to play this version much better. The DVD is great & the graphics are wonderful. The only bad thing like the original game is that you still need a minimum of 2 players.
Great Game! Posted 30 September 2008
This version of Clue is a bit more complicated than the original version. We were somewhat confused at first, but by the end of our first case we got the hang of it. The key is to LISTEN to everything the butler says... it all pieces together in the end. Super fun!!!
Disappointed Posted 06 September 2008
My father had trouble finding the traditional Clue version for my daughter so he bought this one. Unfortunately, we will need to get rid of this one, as the documentation is so poor that we ended up showing each other our cards just to get the solution after many attempts to make this game work for us. Such a bummer, but I could never recommend this version, even though the DVD itself is well done, because the documentation was poor and seems aimless. Maybe if you throw away the board and really work at making the DVD make sense with the cards, you might get some play time out of it, but I'll leave that for someone at the thrift store to figure out.
