The game was inspired by the artwork in the 2002/2003 Classic Detective Game version, featuring the original six characters, weapons, and nine original rooms.

Reception

BoardGameBeast rated the game 4 out of 5 stars, describing it as "a truly perfect rendition of the classic English board game [with] great graphics and creepy atmosphere". It criticised the lack of multiplayer option, and the fact that Hasbro stopped download editions.[3] Gamezebo rated the game 4 stars out of 5, saying the good included "animations and sound effects; faithfully reproduces tabletop edition's mechanics; charm and personality; eliminates much of the real game's hands-on busywork", and the bad included "no head-to-head multiplayer; can get repetitive; need to sit through canned animations".[4]
