We have the kids version of Clue. It lasted years, and was a joy to play. All my kids liked it. But now just entering the pre-teen years, that "who stole the piece of cake", just wasn't cutting it. Thought I'd give this a try. and it is a hit. Fun game. quick game, but very enjoyable. The kkids now want the "real clue board game", which I will likely pick up as well.
