I am a Clue fanatic... and this game is just as good or better!! Fun, individual mysteries for you to solve by visiting places on the game board and using your common sense. My boyfriend hates these types of games because he's not very good at them.... but even HE enjoyed this game and stood a chance at winning. Great game even for just 2 people.

My 8 year old and I love this game. We play cooperatively which makes for a very pleasant, quick game, filled with natural learning for both of us! It is often silly, for example it will give a "sounds like" clue, rather than real mystery solving, but we rate it very highly and play a lot.

If you loved playing the classic game of Clue when you were a kid, then you'll love this challenging version of 221B Baker Street. You are Sherlock Holmes and you are in a race with the other players to gather information to solve the mysteries presented. I'm not a reader of mystery novels, but I do enjoy this game. My husband and I played it with friends when we first got married years ago, and now that our kids are older we can enjoy some of our time together with this game. Have fun!
