Oh wow, this is awesome! Thanks monster, for years I wondered what the game was but just now was prompted to look for it online.
I had a detective game when I was a kid, where I actually kept records of everything, who was the culprit how the clues worked out. Documenting that like I did, it's not surprising I landed in a field where it's all documentation all the time. I was pretty young as I recall, when I had the game. I tried to google it and I'm sure this was the game! What memories. I played this one by myself a lot. I wish I still had it. http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/4969/manhunt edit: it came out in 72 so I was like 8 or 9. |

Clue = Cluedo for those completely unbilingual, btw. Hebe loves this game once we taught her how to play. I used to be totally crap at it, right into adulthood, then beest pointed out he couldn't understand why -it was just a huge logic problem of the type I love to do for fun and that was a lightbulb moment! I have no idea why that never occurred to me as a kid. I just thought everyone had some superintuition I was missing. I now suspect my dad deliberately kept me in the dark about that so there was one game he could still win.... ![]()

Heeeheee...for bringing up the thread so my mind could free-associate all the way back nigh on 40 years ago.
![]() I'd thought about it from time to time but never when I was in a situation to look for it. Serendipity. My memories are searing, branded iron hot. |

I'm still trying to track down a couple of games from my youth -One I think was called "Shipping", and another railroad/empire building one that we used to play in humanities.
