This is such good value and quality. After doing a few of there types of things this is the best quality wise I’ve come across. The attention to detail and level of effort that’s gone into making the “evidence” is amazing. I love that you are essential left to get on with investigating without having to add info in or check in. You are just investigating the evidence, piecing it together gradually and working on it as a case file, then when you think you’ve solved it submit your answer. It’s really clever and interesting. Things are put together well but not so easily it all connects straight away, you do dig and have to prove the theories you think before submitting the answer . We really enjoyed this one and will be doing more!

We did the Murder of Merivale Manor on a weekend at my friends caravan. This was some of the most fun we've ever had! I would thoroughly recommend. I was truly enthralled. It took us about 3 hours, I would recommend getting detective costumes to wear when you play, this adds to the fun and I am convinced makes you a better detective. I would also recommend cross referencing the evidence as there was always something that each of us missed that someone else noticed. Absolutely brilliant! Loved it, will be ordering another straight away! Please keep writing more crimes for us to solve!

Absolutely incredible - there is just enough information that you can piece the clues together but not so much that each step is obvious. The effort that has been put into this is phenomenal, everything looks legitimate and the tiny details like making the paper jagged, so it looks like it's been ripped from a notebook is just another aspect that feeds the imagination. Unfortunately, it can only be played once but it is worth the price for the hours of fun. Also, the ability to be able to do it solo is fantastic for me as the majority of people I know don't enjoy this kind of thing - that just means more puzzles for me though!

Great fun, you have to read everything very carefully a notebook is helpful to take notes. Also some space to be able to spread all of the relevant information out to be able to find it easily. Some of the information is cryptically hidden but it is called cryptic killers eh? Also some information is very well hidden in plain sight. I or should I say we (my wife got involved too & thoroughly enjoyed it) played Murder at Merivale Manor and it took us about five hours spread over two days to solve. There were hints available but we didn’t want to use them before we thought we knew who had done it. We solved it correctly and didn’t need the hints but looking at them afterwards they would probably cut the time it took in half, but in my way of thinking would have reduced the fun & the satisfaction of working it out. It is like I said quite cryptic in places and a lot of looking and searching for clues online, & in the information sent in the pack, so age wise as long as there is an adult there to assist I would think teenagers probably later in their teens could do OK with this specially if they’re into the detective & CSA programs on the TV I would definitely recommend this updated and harder version of Cluedo. I will definitely be getting another case to solve! Good luck all of you budding Sherlocks! Pete (or should I say Lead detective, DCI, Guv, or even boss. None of which my wife will agree to call me apart from Pete) 😂

Really great experience! All the help needed if you run out of ideas. Only thing was that our order had duplicate photos and was missing one piece of evidence. Apart from that it was great.

This was the second game from this company that we've played, and it was just as much fun as the first. You've really got to make sure that you're paying attention to all of the evidence pieces that you find, as missing just one clue might make you get the answer wrong! We really enjoy these games and will definitely be ordering more of them, the way they're assembled is great, realistic booklets/newspaper clippings/photographs etc, and they're so much fun to play. Highly recommended!

Lots of casework - Fun! Didn't quite get all the information it explains afterwards but we got the killer correct within 2 hours. This is the 3rd we've done now and it's a great night in!

This is perfect, it has the evidence and online components which are very well crafted. I like that if you lose a piece at some point in the future, there is the possibility of printing off another on the site it comes from. It was also super fun, not too easy and was a great experience. I am definitely going to buy more… when they’re on sale

This was so well made. The detail that went into the packaging and the evidence made this so much fun.

This is a great puzzle with easy access to further clues. Took about 2 1/2 hours to solve and piece everything together. Will definitely pass this along for others to enjoy and purchase another case to solve!

Played this as a date night with my wife. It took us 2-3 hours to get the murderer right. She was very impressed with how realistic the evidence felt. If this was a 4/5, I would say it's best to buy the 4/5 or harder ones, because we nailed pretty much every part of the story without any hints. But it was very fun to pull off.
