5 out of 5 stars Fun and Games   January 6, 2009
I bought this for my 14 year old niece who has played with it solidly since Christmas Day barely lifting her head since!


5 out of 5 stars rather good   January 2, 2009

This is a fun game for all ages. Essentially, the game is a series of logic puzzles framed by a Holmes-esque detective plot. Some of the puzzles are a little easy, but there are plenty of challenging ones. Some younger players might find some of the puzzles difficult, but there is a system of hints that should keep things from getting frustrating. The story is decent, and the major plot mysteries are fun to figure out.


4 out of 5 stars Very fun. Keeps you interested.   January 2, 2009
This game is fun and keeps you interested. Challenging. At least 10 years and up to play this, really I would say older than that. Lots of reading.


3 out of 5 stars Puzzles are hard!   December 30, 2008

First, let me say that I'm no dunce. I have a Master's degree plus 30 hours, but a lot of these puzzles are too hard for me. Maybe my brain just doesn't think that way, but it's not the type of game to play for relaxation. I prefer MillionHeir or Word Jong personally.


5 out of 5 stars Best Christmas Present - but 12 yr old already solved all clues!   December 30, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

My daughter opened this gift and asked if I put the correct label on it. From the cover she assumed it would be for her 6 yr old sister. BUT - once she started to play it she was hooked. She LOVED all the brain teasers and some were quite tough for her. She just called me today at work to tell me she completed the whole game now and can't wait until I get home to show me the end movie. On the one hand I thought - wow, a game that only lasted less than a week??? But she assures me she wants to do it again and see how much faster she can solve everything. She absolutely loves this game.
