Computer Cluedo is a version of the detective game by Waddingtons. It is a good implementation of a well tried and tested board game.

The object is to solve a murder mystery by specifying who killed Dr. Black - found dead at the bottom of the stairs in Tudor Close. The murder weapon and location of the crime must be found. You move from room to room and interrogate the other players. Finally you should eliminate everything except the answers.

The program is extremely user-friendly and can't let you do anything wrong or cheat. You may have sound to help add interest. Other options allow specifying the speed and type of TV set (colour/b&w).

The screen contains nice graphical displays and pictures which make Computer Cluedo a pleasure. Up to six people can play at once. This makes it ideal to amuse the family.

The manual is good and easily understood. No loading problems were encountered and the product has a 12-month warranty.
