Advantages: gets your mind working, simple rules

Disadvantages: only for 3-6 players, 6 is best

This game is simple to play and can provide hours of fun for both children and adults (from 3 to 6 players). The object of the game is to deduce which 3 cards have been removed from the pack - They will be a PERSON, a PLACE and a MURDER WEAPON.

Whilst moving around the board you enter rooms and "suspect" a combination of person, place and implement. Each player, in turn, has to tell you if they have any one of those cards in their hand, if they do, then they opt to show you one - after you have been shown one card the game then moves on with the next person playing.

Now consider that if a person DOESN'T have a certain number of cards in their hand then you are able to deduce which cards they DO have and you can repeat this process through all the players until you arrive at the three cards that no-one has.

Rather than the usual little tick box pads you get with the game, use the "advanced deduction" procedure. You will need a sheet of paper drawn into grids.

My son loves this game, he's only 9. All these years later and it's still a family favourite.

I agree with ANDREWSJK, perhaps some more general info about how to play would improve this.

Good op, just feel it should contain a little more detail.
