5-Minute Mystery by Wiggles 3D | A Real-Time, Co-Operative Mystery Game! | Fast-Paced Board Game | for Families, Ages 8 & up | 1-6 Players

So, the game is actually considerably simpler than the instructions make it look. There are a lot of components, but it's actually fairly easy. We played with our 6-year-old daughter, and she loved it. When I opened the box, I had an immediate "not-these-IKEA-instructions-for-a-five-minute-game" reaction. However, it's not bad. Force yourself to get through the instructions, and you will enjoy it.The cards are cute, though some of the clues on the suspects aren't super easy to identify. One of the suspects is a naked mole rat, which counts as an animal with fur. While I realize that naked mole rats do, technically, have some fur, fur is by definition not their hallmark characteristic. Some of the other attributes are hard to identify, too. One animal has glasses, but they're on his hat, for example. Granted, this may just be my family of idiots. I have found that having kids is generally one long exercise in feeling stupid, and this game is no exception. I put as much - if not more - energy into trying to figure out if one of the animals is wearing a pair of reading glasses than I did into the entirety of my post-secondary education. Overall, though, very cute and very fun. The age range is 8+, and I think you can easily play this with kids aged 5 and older.

Super fun game, easy to learn and teach. Really fun to play with friends or family

I ordered this game for my husband for the holidays! We loved it. We had a few friends over and we jumped right in. It's quick to learn and good fun with a group. Highly recommend if you like a fast paced games like this. lots of replay-ability.

My son and I play this and it is very user-friendly. It's like Clue but much more engaging. I will say that this game doesn’t hold a candle to its predecessor, 5-minute dungeon. We play that game every chance we get!

This was great to play with two players. It'll likely be fun with three also, but I feel like anymore may get a bit crowded or overwhelm the player working the codex.

This game was so fun, easy to understand and play. I truly Hope an expansion comes out!

I love escape rooms, and this plays practically just like one. You work together to find clues to the culprit, and you're also working against the clock. It has great repeatability, as the culprits change every time. I have been hooked since the first time we played it! It's a great family game, and no worries on surprise inappropriate content. It's also a great tool to help teach kids some critical thinking and observation. A great and fun game!

Was looking for something to play with my kids (9, 12) who like Clue and that wasn’t too complicated/competitive for the 9yo (who gets frustrated at always losing strategy games). I like the cooperative nature of this and the minimal time investment in a game (and the fact that if I play a couple rounds with them I can bug out and they’ll keep going). But it’s sort of an “I Spy” game that gets old (to me) fast. The kids like it a lot though.
