From the Manufacturer
24 DVD Board Game - You're a CTU agent trying to prevent a terrorist attack. Onscreen games and challenges give you clues. Can you figure out which ones are valuable and which ones are dead ends? As the DVD timer ticks down, the action and suspense grow until one player wins.
Product Description
This DVD Board Game is based on the Emmy Award-winning blockbuster series. Players become CTU agents vying to collect clues and prevent terrorist attacks. Participate in the onscreen games and challenges, analyze data and decide which clues you're going to follow. Some will be vital while others may lead to misleading evidence or total dead ends. Your decisions will take you down different paths, and as the DVD's timer ticks, the action and suspense really amp up. Narrated by Kiefer Sutherland.

I too purchased this game thinking it would be excellent, as I am a huge fan of the hit tv show and I had read on the internet that Kiefer Sutherland himself had provided his voice for the game... I couldn't have been more wrong. After about 3 minutes of gameplay me and my girlfriend were stuck in seemingly impossible tasks, having to use the DVDremote as a 'wanna-be' gaming-console controller....this doesn't work at all (not surprisingly).
I am surprised and disseapointed that so much money and effort has been put into such a terrible game. I predict that word will spread and that this will not sell as much as predicted.

I got this game for Chistmas from my wife and we all looked forward to sitting down and giving it a try today.
Needless to say, since you have probably read at least a few of the other reviews on this game, the experience ended up being frustrating. Sadly, the frustration game from the interface rather than a difficult mystery to solve.
We started with Day 1 and found what others have commented on. The response time is often slow and you find yourself hunting for the "sweet spot" to click your remote while taking into account the delay.
What really killed us was after about 3 or 4 locations, we had to go back to the CTU to decode some USB drive we had found. We believe we figured out the code right off the bat, but for the life of us could not figure out how to enter the code we wanted to. It was an absolute exercise in frustation.
Speaking as Joe user out here in the world, I have to say that this is just about the most poorly designed, documented or explained interfaces I have ever seen.
Speaking as someone who tested and designed interfaces for the software industry for quite a few years, I have to say that this is just about the most poorly designed, documented or explained interfaces I have ever seen.
There really is no excuse for this. Having any playtesting with this game should have revealed these glaring problems.
Save yourself the trouble and move on to something else. This game is not only not worth it, but not even a passion for 24 would make this thing worth the trouble.

Do not waste your money. I agree with everyone else. The idea of the game is great, but completing some of the missions on the DVD are pretty much impossible. Figuring out the codes are ok, but trying to sneak past a security camera or security laser beams are totally random. The reaction of the green dot (the agent) does not correspond with you hitting the arrow button on the dvd remote. We hit it a lot of different times and the dot moved when it wanted to and it was always into the sight of the camera or security laser beam. No skill, no strategy. Jack Bauer yells at you and makes you feel like an idiot when you can't get it. There's no way, I believe that this game was tested out on anyone. How can they make a game that can't be won, except by random luck. I feel they used the "24" name and put together a shotty DVD game. And the board is useless. The game was frustrating to say the least. I plan on returning it.

Reading the reviews is the best part
I bought this for my husband's birthday last year, never questioning why it was on clearance. We were very excited to play, since we are big 24 fans. Read more

Big fan of 24...worst game ever
We were really excited to try this game. It was disappointing to say the least. The board has nothing to do with the game...at least for the main portion of the game. Read more

Great Fun for the Family
Follows an old senario, but is still great fun for the family. Whether or not you are a 24 fan you will have fun with this.

The Opposite of Fun
This game is quite terrible. The format of the DVD causes any sort of reaction based game on the disc to be impossible. Read more

Impossible to play
This game is a complete waste of time. Four college educated adults were unable to complete this game. It is extremely poorly designed and flawed in too many ways to list here. Read more

Pressman Toys should issue a Recall.
Wow, I have never seen anything like this. It's worse than bad; it is virtually unplayable from a technical perspective. At the very least, Amazon should refuse to carry it.
