G. Mello (NH, USA)
My niece so loved this game she wants to be a CSI. It as provided hours of family fun according to my sister. Great buy. Now my nephew with ADHD had a difficult time following the game.


1 out of 5 stars 1 star is generous   July 27, 2008
Photo Lover (San Francisco, CA)
Errors in the game (typos, references to characters that don't exist, calling a character by two different first names, poor quality control). Inadequate and poorly written rules. Plots as thin as tissue paper. Well... so much for the games good points. Bad points includes slow tedious play and lots of pointless dice rolling. Combines luck with a half witted mystery. If your a fan of the series this will disappoint you, if not a fan it may convince you not to bother even checking our an episode.

Hard to imagine how this game could be any worse. Factual errors in questions, tedious game play, silly rules... the only ones who enjoyed this one were the 13 year old CSI fans who could cite all the actors' birthdays.

Just one example: to advance one must look at a picture of a bug and (by touch alone)blindly pull a matching bug from a velvet bag. Surprise! The bugs look nothing like the pictures in either shape or color. Pull out the rules to find out if there is a match.

Very poor design and execution on this one.

I totally thought this game was great... I love the show and playing the game really added to the experience of immersing myself in forensics. It was challenging, but really fun....Since the game asks for your forensic knowledge, it was great to play if you are the type of person who likes to solve mysteries or wants to be a criminalist!


3 out of 5 stars One small change, and you will love this game   November 19, 2005

While playing the game, do not stay confined to the little area that is provided in the pads. Use a large piece of paper to keep track of the clues, and you'll love this game.
