Not clue, not even close...Mar 24, 2008 My wife loves clue...anything with the clue name on it she has to have and she plays all of the different clue games. However when we played this one with a few friends it was highly disappointing and wasn't very fun at all. I know i didn't care for it and she doesn't seem to like it much either since we haven't played it since. If you are wanting to add it to your collection great but don't look for anything that spectacular either. The next trip we go on we may take it but even then it is for 3 players like most versions of clue so it will be near worthless to us as well.

Better than the board gameDec 19, 2006 This has become one of our favorite, often played, family games. I like this much better than the board game! When my child (age 9)wants to play a game, this is one of the few that we actually play and enjoy. Yes, as one reviewer noted, there is some luck of the draw involved, but there is definitely stategy too! The only drawback to the card version of the game is probably that you don't really 'get to know' much about the characters as much as you do in the board game.

Not as good as the board gameSep 03, 2005 Clue the Card Game is an interesting alternative to the original board game, but it depends more on the luck of the draw.
The basis of the game is similar to the original: you need to determine who committed the crime, what they fled from the mansion in (a hot-air balloon, or an automobile, for instance), and what their destination was. As in the original, everyone holds some of the cards and you have to determine the solution by process of elimination.
In order to do anything on your turn, you must play a card to let you perform an action. For instance, you can make a suggestion, like in the traditional game, or you can play cards that allow everyone to peek at a card from the player on the left, or demand that a player show all his or her vehicle cards, for example. On the whole, the action cards vary in usefulness, and this makes the game depend much more on luck of the draw and less on strategy.
Overall, this is a fun game, but not as well executed as other Clue variants. Given the choice between this game and the board game, I'd play the board game any day.
