Editorial Review:
Mystery at Mansfield Manor is a groundbreaking DVD that is like a Hi tech version of Cluedo!
You take the role of the lead detective and interview all the suspects making notes as you go. There are many alternate endings and only one correct conclusion.
Already a massive success in the USA and Canada, this title is set to be the gifting sensation this Christmas 2007.
Dust off your magnifying glass, calabash pipe, and deerstalker cap - it's time to play detective in this interactive game of deductive reasoning. As in the popular board game 'Cluedo', on which this game is modelled, there are many alternate endings but only one of them holds the truth.

Complete tosh! I only gave this one star because I had to give it something. Please don't believe the reviews that give this rubbish 5 stars, it is so totally tedious I thought about chewing off my right leg just to stay awake. There really is nothing interesting or remotely clever about it, and it gets worse when you have to listen to the same dull story at least 10 times. Stay away!
Not very interactive - but still fun In this game you see in flashbacks each character's description of the night's events to the police. Each character takes about 10 minutes and much of the footage is repeated in different characters flashbacks. Although this is quite repetitive you must watch and listen for any discrepancies and clues. As far as interactivity in this part, you can choose the order you see the flashbacks and re-watch them as necessary. After you have watched each person's story you select which characters you think are... more info
Very Disappointing I received this as a Christmas present after reading positive reviews and "suggesting" my husband got it for me. It was very slow and repetitive - a real shame as I had been looking forward to it. It will be going in the next charity bag that arrives!!
NO STARS!!! This is rubbish - do not waste your money. The synopsis above is a lie - it does not have "many alternative endings". You sit through hours of people's statements and have to pick who you think is NOT lying. If you don't get this right you cannot move on. You then have to re-question the suspects (listening to more boring statements) and try and work out who the killer is. It is not entertaining or fun. I would rather eat my cat litter tray than play this game again. Buy something good like the Poirot... more info
