I am a Clue lover so when I found this at a garage sale I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately as with most Jr. games this was a disappointment. This game is not much more than a roll and move game with very little decision making.
There are 10 different toys in the game and you are attempting to discover what the two are that are hidden in the tree house. The rest of the toys are at different areas around the board and under all the players. You roll the dice and attempt to land on one of the spots with a hidden toy so you can discover what it is and eliminate it from being in the tree house.
Essentially it is simply a race to move to all the spaces where toys are hidden. The only decisions to be made are to remember what locations and people you have been to so you do not return.
My five year old does enjoy this game. He feels like a real detective and is all sneaky with his detective pad hiding what he has discovered. So it was worth the $0.50 at a garage sale but I wouldn't have bought it new. Manufacturer recommended age for this game is 5-8. I think the game could be played at age 4.
