Fun To Play, Have never been able to complete

The game has never let me complete it. It freezes up and won't let me move accross the board. I have windows XP. Maybe the game isn't compatable.

How much fun is it to stay trapped in a room?

Of the four reviews already written for this game, three complained about bugs. BELIEVE THEM. This is the most clunky game I've played in a long time. Here's what happens. When you enter a room, you can leave again, but if someone else enters the room and blocks the door you can't get past them. I've loaded it on three separate computers to see if the problem might be with the computer, but always the same problem. I have never been able to play for longer than 15 minutes without getting trapped. I love the board game, and I was excited about this adaptation, but it's not worth the time it will take you to install, get stuck, and uninstall it.

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

WORST GAME EVER

I have been a huge Clue fan since I was little. I was so excited to see this cd-rom. The first game I played it froze in the middle. The next 6 attempts the same thing happened. I got very frustrated and went searching on the internet for the web pages listed on the manual. I downloaded the 'patch', rebooted my computer, this time the game lasted longer than the previous 7 attempts. Finally I turned everything that was running in the background on my computer, except for the two basic programs you need and the game ran fine for 6 games in a row. (I have to admit when it runs like it should it is fun.) The seventh game I was almost at the end of the game when it crashed the computer. No matter what I did the 'butler's voice' would only start working about 3 turns into the game. So unless you have the time to turn every program off everytime, don't waste your money- stick with the classic board version!!

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.

Just okay.

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

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!

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)
