Just finished playing this new instalment in the Mystery Agency games. I played with my sons age 20 and 15 and it took us an hour and a half. I was worried that this simpler version wouldn’t be as much fun as the larger games but it was brilliant. All the quizzes and clues are there, just with less props. We loved it and at the moment the larger games are just not affordable for me so I welcome this new simpler format and hope there will be more.
