Clue VCR Mystery Game

We got this game as well as the first clue movie game. They were more fun to watch than play. The acting while maybe not first rate was pretty good. We watched the movie so often that my youngest daughter could almost recite every scene. Especially the "Gypsies gypsies came in the middle of the night and stole our baby" bit. As stated earlier by someone it is a difficult game if your not observant but for us the fun was in the watching not the playing

I kind of liked playing this game, although none of my friends could either understand it or like it. The great thing about this video, though, is the video itself. It is, in one word, hilarious! The producers, director, and actor knew that they were making a two-bit story for a silly game and totally ran with it.

I first got this game when it first came out (on Beta!) and I watched it constantly, and even have the whole thing memorized. The story is unrealistic and twisted and the characters are very stereotypical, but it's jolly good fun!

Watch it with your friends and you'll be quoting lines from it for months!

For those who want more, try watching "Clue II: Murder in Disguise," which is a little less funny because they're trying too hard but still a great time.

This game is really fun for people who are observant or just like a good mystery. These people that are saying "two-bit dinner theatre" actors populate the video have probably never acted a day in their life. Anyway, back on topic, this is really cool. Try and find it on Ebay or something. My version is a hand-me-down from my parents.

Check it out for a laugh and some fun.

The actors are OK, nothing Oscar-worthy.

Again, check it out!

Watching this video while trying to play the game is annoying and too complicated, and you're likely to end up getting mad and tossing the entire set out, or selling it on e-bay. But--it's not nearly as bad as it may seem, if viewed as a cheesy movie, disregarding the game. (In other words, don't throw EVERYTHING out, just the game part--keep the video!!) The cast works great together, and it really is funny to watch. Another user said that you will be reciting lines for months, and I agree. I was drawn to the cheesiness of the video, and found myself enjoying it--even laughing out loud. The characters of Colonel Mustard, Madam Rose, and Miss Scarlet are particularly funny, but all the others are great--working together, the MAKE the video. Excellent ensemble work. If you want to have some plain fun entertainment, pop in the video and enjoy. Also, check out Clue II: Murder in Disguise--another cheesy, fun video with the same chemistry-charged cast.

Although I think the game is fun to play, I agree with the last person who wrote in saying how bad the video was. A bunch of two-bit dinner theater rejects try and make the game enjoyable and they succeed. Unfortunatley, they succeeded in making the movie laughable rather than suspenseful. Mr. Green's phony New York type accent (not to mention M. Brunette's French accent) are laughable. Miss Peach and Ms. Scarlett are hot, but I can't get over how cheesy they are!
