I've had this game for about 15 yrs & it's still a fun diversion. Mine says Hasbro, this says Atari but same artwork & I'm sure same game. I play it solitaire-against the computer & have made small chits to keep track of 4 out of the 6 possible "players".

Just okay.

Kind of slow and kept locking up on me. Had to quit the game many times in the middle and restart.

Really fun

I thoroughly enjoy mystery puzzle games and I got this game for Christmas a while ago. It's getting pretty old now and might not work as well on newer machines. I don't know. It worked on my Win2000 just fine. However, you do have to download the patches because there are a few bugs in it.

The puzzles themselves weren't too challenging. You are basically a detective and spend the game talking to people and collecting various items to find more clues to discover the identity of the murderer.

Parents should note that there are a number of deaths that occur during the game. While these deaths are not bloody or overly violent, they do show them happening on screen. There are several references to an Eqyptian "cult of the dead" as well artifacts relating to this cult. Also, there is a segment where the player is asked to spell names out on a Ouija Board.

Over all, this game is very enjoyable.

i wanted simply a PC version of the game Clue i could play against the computer. unfortunately, this game decides to use graphics that totally stand in the away.. good graphics are fine, but the way these are set up makes moving around the 3-d board super super confusing. no way am i going to put up with that to play what should simply be a board game (it runs on the same rules as the board game, so no need for these graphics).

at least it seemed to run fine on XP

Classic Fun

Clue has always been my favorite board game, so when I learned I could combine my love of Clue with my love of computers, it was a dream come true.

This game plays much the same way the board game does, with up to 6 players being able to play as the various characters and moving about, trying to find the proper combination of person, place, and murder weapon. The game offers some creepy music and lightning effects to help the mood.

My only complaint about the game is that since everyone uses the same computer, there isn't really any way to keep people from looking at your cards and checklist when it's your turn. Play with honest friends!

Clue PC game

This game is good, but it wasn't as interactive as I'd hoped. It felt like an old Mac game adapted for the PC. It's still entertaining, but not one that would keep me coming back often.

One major gripe: It doesn't run on Windows XP and I couldn't find anything saying that it wasn't compatible! (It works fine on Win98)

The specs say that this game is playable online, however, the online function directs you to a page that is 404. If you are getting this game for online use I would not recomend this. If you are getting it just for personal fun or for use on a single computer, it may be a good investment.

I really like this game, with all the fun features it is the best! I really like how it keeps the game quality but remains real! I love it. Although it would be only fun for kids 10 and older. It can be hard to understand at times but it is oh so much fun!!!!! Have a Clue of a Time!

Pretty Good Game

This game is pretty good and the service with Amazon was great. The game freezes but there should be a patch to download at the Hasbro website. Other than that it's fun!

Its a Gas!

I planned to give it to the Niece, but I keep playing it! When a character suggests a murder scenario, you see the dinner guest come after you with that weapon! You complete your 'scorecard' in colors so its a lot easier than the board game cards. If you dont have 3 people around, you play against novice or expert computer players. There's a slight delay after each player's move, but no more than kids around a coffee table. I cant stop Playing!
