About the Game:
Have you ever played Clue and wished in involved psychics, ghosts, and team work? No? I hadn’t either, but now I wish I had. This is like a co-op version of clue in which some players are psychics trying to solve a mystery involving who murdered a servant, where it took place, and what was used to kill them. One player gets to play the dead servant which is now a “ghost” who sits behind a screen and gives each player psychic “vision” cards designed to help them solve the mystery. The “vision” cards are obscure and sometimes a little haunting. The psychic players then use the clues to guess who, where, and how the murder took place. We played with three psychics and a ghost. It took about 20-30 minutes. The more players, the longer the game might take.
Replay Value:
I would say high, if you enjoy solving mysteries with friends that can get premonitions.
Stuff to Be Aware of:
If playing with family just be aware that there is a supernatural emphasis in the game. Psychics, ghosts, and speaking to those who have passed on all play a part.
My Thoughts:
My sister-in-law and her fiance brought this one to a family gather. It took a little while to explain how to play, but once we played for a little bit I caught on easily. It is a very fun clue-like co-op game. Everyone works together so it makes it even mroe fun then Clue, in my opinion.
