Clue

1 of my favourite board games to play..So you are basically guessing who the murderer is which weapon they used to what room they did it in. Only thing I don't like in this game is that you have to roll the dice to go in a room to name that room in your suggestion..The weapon and person can be named at any point.

Would be better without the actual board game element.

This is one of those games that most people don't remember the weird grindy parts of, roll-and-moving from room to room just to get to a place where you can start doing the deduction part. But if you don't pad it out with that it just becomes people guessing different combinations. It's a better way to pass the time than Monopoly, that's for sure.

I wish there was some deeper levels to this game but the presentation and theme are just perfect and catapult this to the top of the board game heap.

One of my favorite mass market games, and a decent introduction to deduction games. Can it be done better, funner, cheaper? Maybe, yeah, but we're a dumb culture that enjoys saying 'Colonel Mustard in the library with a rope', so Clue will always be good.

The only board game to inspire a great movie. I'm still waiting for the "Kick The Can" movie, where kids with polio try their best to kick a single can from one side of the street to the other without dying.

Even old people don't find this fun.

It falls into the trap of being far too reliant on pure dumb luck. There is so little strategy which you can employ and you can be the killer the whole time and not know, just letting you know whether you are the killer might add a whole lot of depth.

Only ever really interesting enough to sustain about one game a year for me.

One of the better classic, family-friendly board games. Doesn't offer a ton in terms of strategy, but it's good for family affairs.
