This is a great game for any mystery fan. The mystery is not simple, but not overly complex. The three settings and additional characters are also fantastic. There are numerous challenging puzzles and mini-mysteries to solve throughout the game. Additionally, the graphics and sounds are superb! I found that gameplay was quite easy and the game was really user-friendly. I experienced NO bugs/crashes while playing and highly reccomend this product!
Fantasic Mystery Game!

Clue Fatal Illusion is a wonderful mystifying game full of gorgeous graphics. It does take some time and patience to get through it;however, it is definetly worth it! The new and interesting characters added were a nice change from the typical Clue gang. I found the puzzles challenging and fun. The many short cinematics were great to watch. This game may run slow on older computers but it worked great for me! I highly recommend this one!
When is Episode Two coming out?

Wow! What can I say about this game? When everything is working (i.e., Patches are in place), this game is addicting as heck! Great graphics, puzzles, etc. make it a blast! Many people had problems with the installation, but if the patches are downloaded before starting the game, you should enjoy every minute of it. Not too hard as to be overly frustrating, but hard enough that you didn't finish it in a short amount of time. Similar to "The 7th Guest", but with a better storyline. Highly recommended to mystery game buffs

I dont know what everyone else's reviews have said but beleieve me this game is awesome! The graphics are out of this world, and its very suspenseful. There's a murder or dead body around every corner, and you get to firgure out who did it! The ending was the best, it took me and my brother at least 24 hours, (not all at once of course), to solve this mystery. It's a really great buy! ~Andrea

This is a great game for puzzel lovers and isn't easy. This is a great game to play on stormy dark night. Sharpen your detective skills with jewels to find murders to solve and a party to save. Just when you think you have it figured out something new happens. Even if you play it again and again you will discover something new every time. Trust me you will never be bored.
HELP! S.O.S.! PLEASE READ THIS!!!!!

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...
Will work for XP

This is a note for those of you were having trouble running this game,
This game works with XP however you need to have a combo drive that includes DVD writer/ C. D. Combo writer I have installed this game from that drive and it works perfectly.
Good Game

I received this game last February for a birthday present. My computer wasn't good enough to run it. When I finally got a new computer, I installled this game right away. The whole game to me only three days to beat.
The game starts off on the Rhine Maiden. Then you move on to the cable car. Either aren't really suspenseful. The mansion makes up for the lost suspense. You have to find six jewels by solving riddles. In the end, I had to go online to get through a really hard maze, but besides that it's really easy. The ending is good though.
