Although it's been almost a year since I've played this game, I still remember that I loved every minute of it! It's hard to find a good, suspenseful game nowadays with such great graphics and storyline. This is a wonderful game for any mystery lover, and especially if you're willing to solve lots of puzzles. Never had a problem loading the game, but it did crash once or twice during game play. I've been waiting for Episode 2 to come out, where is it?! This game is recommended!

Clue Chronicles-The Fatal Illusion

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CLUE CHRONICLES?

First off, you may notice a couple of things:
1. This is called Clue CHRONICLES
2. It is refered to as EPISODE 1 sometimes.
3. It is a 1999 game with no sequel
Why is this? Well, Clue Chronicles was from Hasbro Interactive and EAI. EAI quit the gaming business and Hasbro quit computer games and was left with board games. So, the promising series was "doomed." If you enjoy this game, I advise you to write into Atari. Why Atari? Well, Hasbro was left with all their computer games. They passed all the rights to Infogrames, which became Atari. So, in the complicated and confusing Clue Chronicles Timeline, the rights are held with Atari. I will, and if you like the game you should too, write to Atari and ask for a sequel. Now, for the real review.

MY REVIEW:

Clue Chronicles follows the story of 11 unlucky party guests on a mysterious yacht owned by Ian Masque. After he drops dead, the mystery begins. Did a box kill him? So it seems...Join the old cast-Miss Scarlet, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock, Colonel Mustard, Professer Plum, and Mrs. White-along with a new cast of characters including-Marina Popov, Julia Kell, Sabata, Martin Urfe, and (for a short time) Ian Masque. You are a detective. Nobody has ever met this man is person, what did he want with them, and you? There is an answer. But you need to play the game to find it out. With an airtight plot that doesn't stop-even after the story ends-you will be gasping for breathe at the heartstopping cliffhanger ending!

MY GRADES:

Story 10/10-Well thought out with an unexpected ending
Gameplay 6/10-Minor Glitches that don't effect the gameplay, but involve disappearing characters in the background
Soundtrack-9/10-Music mostly fits the scenes
VO 9/10-The voiceovers are great except for one small part towards the end
Graphics 8/10-Its an old game-that about sums it up, no?

FINAL
A-

Will always be a favorite...
