Review summary

Clue is praised for its nostalgic, social, and engaging take on the board game, with features like Ultimate Detective mode and updated visuals. However, the experience is undermined by recurring issues: crashes, shaky online connectivity, UI readability changes to the clue sheet, and monetization concerns over expensive add-ons and delayed new content. Overall, many players enjoy the concept and play with friends, but persistent bugs and paywall criticisms limit broad enthusiasm.

Pros

Nostalgic and faithful feel to the classic Clue board game, invoking fond memories
Fun, engaging, and well-suited for playing with friends and family
Ultimate Detective mode adds depth and strategic variety
Cross-device online play and multiplayer capability when it works
Updated visuals and new character designs enhance the experience

Cons

Frequent crashes or freezes during gameplay or at the end
Online multiplayer connectivity issues or it no longer works across devices
Clue sheet/board UI changes (visual redesign) make it harder to read
Not showing which card is being asked for in questions in Ultimate Detective mode
Monetization concerns: misleading pricing, expensive DLC/bundles, and slow content updates

2026-07-25	Su*****	This version of clue is very nice, i think it’s very good, but a major issue after I downloaded was extreme lag, this became a worse issue over time until I had to offload the app. Will you please consider optimizing and removing unnecessary data please?

2026-07-04	My*****	This game is fun but it would be better if your running scores were listed like in the first version of Clue. What’s the point of earning winning scores when they aren’t tracked or used after each game? No incentive to keeping playing to try and get highest scores? Kinda boring with no points competition.

Osea ????

2026-05-26	Di*****	I pre-ordered it when I heard it was coming out and I’ve enjoyed every part of it since it came out. The gameplay is easy to understand and most of the time I’ve figured out who the killer is, what they used, and where it all went down. Every location was perfect and all the weapons fit with each location like a glove.

2026-05-20	LI*****	Essentially, the game will force you to escalate the difficulty level by gradually becoming mind-numbingly easy the more you play, but once you get to hard, buckle up. Hard level playing against AI is you getting screwed over and over again. If you play with the clue cards, your cards will get called within the first four turns, while AI characters will go the entire game revealing nothing. AI will somehow know the room without anyone having ever even been in the room (and with multiple rooms having never been entered). I’ve played games where the AI character solved the murder in the second round having only ever entered one room and the solution involved a character, weapon, and room that had not even been used yet. Hard should be actually challenging, not just AI having impossible knowledge and winning the game in under five minutes. Save your money and time.
