WS Game Company Clue Luxury Edition Board Game for 3-6 Players | Luxurious Wood Cabinet, 3D Rooms Under Glass, Metal Weapons, Weighted Movers, Faux Leather Storage, for Collectors & Adults

Absolutely gorgeous for what you get. First off, I'm a woodworker and understand what "fine" hardwoods like Oak, Walnut, Pecan, Maple, etc should look and feel like - this board is NOT made of solid hardwood. If it WERE - in say the same fashion as a Royal Selanger Cigar Humidor, it would cost upwards of $3500.00 - so before you "poo poo the fact it's a veneered finish over likely particle, plaster or softwood, get a grip on the times. This fit an finish on this set is very, very nice. Secondly, the 3 dimensional presentation is pretty dang awesome. The board surface is tempered glass and I can see they used a pre perforated, full color thick cardboard to represent the walls and floors, while objects sitting within the rooms are often made of gold anodized metal. No, they're not "Pewter" or "14 Carat" - as once again, hellooo -- this is a CONSUMER Luxury game, NOT a 1 off made for the Rothschilds in 1809. Do I like the fact it's made in China? No, but there is no human way you're going to get something this involved for under $1200 made outside China or the far East. The character cards are beautiful, and the set includes actual pencils and custom check pads. The weapons are all well made of again - a gold anodized metal, and the character pieces are wood pieces with metal bottoms to give them a nice weight and heft. I think this set is WELL WORTH any sum under $500 if you really love CLUE and have been looking for something truly neat looking and infinitely playable. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone, anywhere - from hereout, that is going to be able to provide this level of physical, tangible beauty at this price point. I can also personally say, the manufacturer "WS Game Company" boasts incredible customer service, and I am already eyeballing their Luxury edition of Monopoly thanks to their help, patience and courteous attention to details. 2 Side Notes: The Shipping carton they use to send these out is also perfectly constructed with a double walled cardboard exterior, then INNER lined with 1/4 inch styrofoam to protect every surface area of the inner box. My ONLY complaint would be the game's actual outer box/storage box. It's massive, and fairly crude - with a generic styrofoam interior support vs the board and faux leather bound cardboard accessories box inside. I feel this Luxury Edition could benefit from an old school, thick and sturdy sliding top to bottom drawer box with lid - like most old school board games exhibit. A+ otherwise imho.

My wife has been asking for a classic clue game for years. I surprised her with this and she loves it. I’ve been reading a lot of other reviews and, from what I gather, there may be some different or inferior sets out there. Ours was just about flawless. To address complaints I saw by others: The case may not be real wood, but darned if I can tell. It’s solid, hefty as heck, and has a rich, warm finish. Nice sturdy feet. Does not wobble as one reviewer said. It has chunky solid brass plates on each end of the case with the Clue font on them. Also, real glass that seems thick and safe. (Another review claimed it was not real glass). The pieces are great. They have a nice heft and solid metal bases that make a nice “clack” when set on the glass. So what if the piece inside the base is plastic? How else would you get the colors right? We love the way they feel and look. The details and colors (one review said there was no color) in the rooms are terrific. I saw one complaint that said they are just paper. True, but they are precision cut and folded pieces with tons of detail. Also each room does have a solid detailed 3D piece of furniture in it. They’re sort of mesmerizing. The weapons look and feel great. They’re all metal with bright gold finish and oversized slightly from the original game. The only piece I wasn’t crazy about was the lead pipe. It looked a little like a pasta noodle instead of a weapon (sorry I’m a stickler when it comes to bludgeons). The cards are nice stock with fun, classic pictures on them. All the pieces store a nice faux leather textured cardboard box. Some folks complained that there was no storage drawer. I admit, that would be a pretty nice feature. OK now the issue: on our set two of the room interiors do not match the label on the board. The kitchen and lounge are switched. Maybe just an freak defect? Either way, we’re quirky people so we like it and we’re not sending it back. But Hasbro might want to look into that. I’ll post a picture on their Twitter account. Now about the cost: I ordered with a Prime trial and signed up for Amazon credit so I ended up paying $150. Expensive? Yeah, I guess so for a board game. This is a luxury item that no one needs in order to play Clue. But it’s also sort of an heirloom thing that really looks nice in the house and makes playing seem special.

looks nice, but there are a few things you should know, first the board size is a little smaller than the original. and second the board is altered between the ballroom and conservatory there is only 2 tiles between the rooms, unlike the original has 3 tiles seperating the two rooms. Other than those small changes the set is terrific.

This edition is really great. If you're considering it, you must really love CLUE or have a special connection to it because it isn't cheap. The pawns are a little lack luster but they have a good weight to them. The rooms are recessed, decorated with at least one 3D element, and topped off with a glass top. While the room walls appear to be stickers, it's still a lot of fun looking at all the details. The cards are also high quality with great illustrations and a gold leaf back. If you love CLUE and you've got money to blow on something frivolous, you could do worse than this game. However, if you're considering this as a gift for a kid, I wouldn't bother.

Very nice! This was an anniversary present for us and we are thrilled with it. It is truly a classic and family treasure for generations to come. The only thing, however, is that it had been years since we had last played Clue and we had forgotten you must have at least 3 people in order to play this fun game. We had a quiet, romantic weekend for just the two of us planned and were so excited about playing lots of Clue during our few days of peace and quiet. Needless to say, we enjoyed a hearty laugh together when the rules quicklyl reminded us that you need at least 3 to play. That's the bad news...the good is that we found some other "fun" things to do with our "Clueless" time together so it ended up a great weekend after all...by the way, anyone for a game of Clue - we're still looking for #3! :-)

Just beautiful and looks just like the photos. Very high quality. So much so I am now looking for a game table to showcase it on! Only nit, it's weird that the box with all the components is too big to slide under the table. That's a small miss. Also beautifully packaged in a gorgeous box. Makes a perfect gift.

It was a lot bigger than I expected and way more fancy than anticipated. Worth the purchase. 👌🏼

The board itself is exquisite - no complaints there. However, the dice, weapons and character pieces are a little basic, which is a shame considering how excellent the board is, and for the price. For this reason it loses a star. For anyone who loves this board game - or the amazing movie adaptation - this is a must.

This wooden game set is beautiful and I can imagine being in my family for years, I am so happy I found this and bought it.

Arrived promptly undamaged. There was a minor assembly defect with one of the room’s floor misaligned and not firmly attached. Quality check prior to boxing failed. Annoying given the price paid but otherwise beautiful product and fully functional.

This Clue game is stunning. Each room is made up like a tiny diarama under a glass ceiling. The wood is beautiful and the entire presentation is perfection. My only complain is that they could easily have crafted a storage compartment in the board for the playing pieces, cards, and score sheet..but they didn't. Instead you have to store them separately in a tiny box that comes along with the board. A subtle flaw that should be fixed.

Absolutely beautiful game. It's a pleasure to play clue on this lovely board. It lost a star simply because there is no place in this large game to store the pieces. That would make it 5 stars!!

The classic game has always been a family favorite, this has been played over and over.
