cindy1010Yes For some reason our chlldren (10 years old) really enjoy this game. It can be a fairly long game but they never complain. Very good components and lots of atmosphere. They have no problem with the deductive reasoning required to win.
shawndumas88Yes Great game bits. Pre-teens and teens will have no trouble and are likely to enjoy. No half naked women, gore, cursing, and very little morbidity (game starts with a murder).
Mark7  Nicer-looking than clue. I have not actually tried it with kids.
mawiker79Yes  
Yollege78Yes Much better than Clue for the Adults, but not too difficult for the kids. A very enjoyable deduction game.
tempus424  I think this game is much too complicated and fiddly for kids under about 12 years old to play. If any player gives even one wrong answer to a question, the whole game is basically completely screwed up, and I'm sure you could imagine how easy it would be for any kid (and even many adults) to make an honest mistake.
The Unbeliever414Yes Too complicated for kids.
