1. Almost there Yari Verified Buyer – 25 April 2024

   The box was a little banged up and we were missing the clip, but the cards are almost new and everything else was there.

   Great game to practice reading comprehension, logical thinking and formulating questions with your teens.

   It should be played by kids 13 or older. The cases are Law & Order Criminal Intent type cases.

   Thanks. I will buy from this seller again!

   I LOVE solving cases and critical thinking. This game is so much fun to play with a group! A teacher of mine used to use this in middle school to help develop critical thinking skills and I believe that it really made a difference. It allows you to think outside the box and come up with creative answers. It’s interesting to see how differently everyone’s mind works.

   Great quality for being a used game. The only problem I found was that a corner of a box was slightly split due to use. No problem clear tape can’t fix!
   

3. puzzler Verified Buyer – 22 January 2025

   This “game” is filled with puzzling mysteries, which must be solved by asking yes or no questions. Most of the easy mysteries take nearly 30-45 minutes to solve. Haven’t tried the higher level mysteries yet. NOT a game for those who like a rapid pace. Very slow and made for thinking. We’ve found that the older friends and family (over 50) enjoy it way more than younger ones. It is a slow moving mystery solving game and can be VERY time consuming! Still enjoyable on occasion. We might try this on our next lengthy car trip.

   This game has been a favorite in our family for many years. It requires logic, creative thinking, and because there’s no time limit there’s plenty of laughter and relaxed fun! Really only the mystery cards are needed–the rest of the game pieces just get in the way of the fun. We’re only sorry that additional sets of mystery cards have never been produced because eventually you will remember every case by heart!

   The game came in perfect condition and was securely packaged. Can’t wait to host game night with an old favorite!!
   

6. R. Gilbert Verified Buyer – 21 February 2025

   I taught a mystery and crime novels class and as part of the class I would share mini-mysteries. At one a day, it was difficult to come up with good ones regularly. That’s why I hunted down this game. While I didn’t really ever get to playing the game by the rules that were enclosed, I did find the mysteries to be fun, thought-provoking and a bit of a challenge for my sleuths-in-training. This is one of those games you have to find used since MB is no longer producing it. But it is possible to find one for less than $20 with all the cards and all the fun of trying to crack the cases.

   We have had this game in our family for decades, and have laughed till we cried every time we’ve played. The scenarios are outrageous, and at first, seem impossible to solve…but somehow we always do. I was looking for a new one to give to my teenage granddaughter who wants mine :), but I was not willing to pay $90+ for a card game. (No matter how much fun it is.) So, I purchased a “like new” game and was so pleased!
   It had EVERYTHING in the box. She was thrilled! It’s a family favorite!

   I played this game a lot in the 90’s. It is so fun and you can ultimately make up your own scenarios. I have always wanted the game. I ordered it and the USPS lost it. I contacted Mike, the seller. He located another game with the same quality and sent it out again. I received the game and it was great. I can’t wait to have my friends over to play. Thanks Mike!!!
