Junior Detective Game by Buffalo Games for Ages 8+

I read a review that this was the next step as children grow their deduction skills from Outfoxed, a family favorite of ours. We have played a few missions so far and I agree. Its much more interactive and changing than Clue. Art work is fun and vibrant. The case files are funny. We have been playing with our 6, 8, and 10 year old and enjoying it!

We love this game. It's engaging for adults but easy enough for kids to understand. You do need to be able to read in order to play, so I have to help my youngest.

The amount you get for the price is worth a try for the detective minded. This is a gift for my daughter's birthday, so we haven't opened to utilize everything yet. Look forward to playing!!

This takes a little setting up each time. It is fun for my 8 year old son, and me and my husband who are in our 30s. It doesn't take tons of strategy like with clue but has more going on than guess who. There are innocent pranks to solve instead of murder crimes. There are things that throw a little twist in the game. Materials are all very well made. The instructions are detailed and easy to understand. I really enjoy it. It makes a great gift

great details to solve the problem

this game is so much fun! love to play as a family

Great for kids.

We have really enjoyed playing this game as a family. It's the perfect amount of challenge for our 8 and 10 year old.

My daughter is 9 and loves detective games and using deductive reasoning. We have other detective games and have enjoyed them a lot, but this one beats them all! There are so many cases to solve! We chose to place together, cooperating to solve the case but you can play against each other like the classic game clue, racing to be the first to solve the case. There are cool items like a mirror to read backward messages, a decoder magnifying glass and heat activated messages. With so many different cases to solve, that it will take us a year to get through them all and by that time we can easily turn around and start from the beginning again. My daughter gave it 10 out of 5 stars!

This game takes a little bit of extra time to set up and read the directions, but once you have the understanding of it all, it's such a really REALLY enjoyable game!! The game is not meant to play collaboratively, but we've played it both competitively and cooperatively. Our 8 year old enjoyed this game, we've played it numerous times and will continue to play it!
