ef107Yes  
Shade_Jon10  Excellent game of deduction for kids, although they will hopefully outgrow it in a year or two.
petegrey9  Fun game for kids. The only downfall of this game is does not play well with only two players.
wkusau98Some Great game. To help with the die rolling, just let everyone move 6 when their turn comes.
davebo8  The kids like it, and I think it is an awesome game to teach kids logical thinking.
guantanamo87Some Simple roll and move. Enjoyable for kids.
pikkusiili200088Yes Excellent way to develop reasoning skills
SeanXor88Yes A good family game. It is better to use two six sided dice to move instead of fun to make it go faster.
The Unbeliever89Yes Requires at least four players to be interesting. Not something we can play as a family yet.
tiggle88Yes My 8-year-old daughter has been playing this since she was 6 or 7, but at first she would mess up a lot and not notice that she had a card she was asked about, which, obviously, messes up the game. She's good at it these days, however, and quite likes it. Obviously, not everyone likes Clue, but her dad and I do, so we have many fun evenings playing it as a family.
boltongeordie79Some Works well for kids with a logical turn of mind who will enjoy the deduction aspect. Can sometimes feel a little slow. Kids need to be old enough to bluff and to work out some of the less obvious strategies (e.g. ask for two cards you hold and one you dont).
gaharoni7  For older kids. Can get a little tiresome.
helenoftroy7  Growing up, this was a favorite of mine. It teaches simple logic and problem solving. I really like my pretty Nostalgia edition in the wooden box.
laraberrycross710Some Too long for what it is, but deduction is fun.
shawndumas78Some See Mystery of The Abby by Days of Wonder for a slightly better game. No half naked women, gore, cursing, some morbidity.
cindy67Some Clue has held up pretty well with our children and is OK with us adults in small doses
Gecko236  The kids ask to play it, but rarely finish it. The square by square crawl is a real fun killer.
Randy Cox6  Works well with kids and adults.
