Women's Murder Club Games of Passion - Nintendo DS

I was surprised to see this as the series had been cancelled. It is easy to play and some of the clues are super easy to find and others take a little longer. It has 6 chapters with each one containing a different murder but they are all linked together--or are they??? I was disappointed as when you start the game it has start game three times so I thought it contained three different games but no just the one! I enjoyed the series and was sorry to see it go this is just as entertaining as the series and you get to play detective for a hour or however long it takes you. I'd buy more Womens Murder Club games as it was a fun experience.

I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS GAME I EXPECTED SEEK AND FIND GAMES BUT THERE WERE ONLY A FEW ALL IT WAS WAS MOSTLY INTERRAGATIONS. I EXPECTED IT TO BE LIKE VANISHING FILES OR THE MILLIONHEIR. I DO NOT SUGGEST THIS GAME TO ANYONE WHO LIKES SEEK AND FIND GAMES OR PUZZLE GAMES

I have played all these games and i love solving the cases. It makes me think and the puzzles are hard but not enough that it can't be figured out.

I enjoyed parts of Women's Murder Club, and I can see how fans of the books/TV series might really love it while it lasts. Mostly a seek-and-find with a few puzzles and some Q/A gameplay (testing your memory of the case and logical skills) thrown in the mix, the game had a lot of potential. I liked some of the more original seek-and-find prompts like "find all of the objects that could be used to strangle the victim." But the game often doles out one seek and find objective at a time, and sometimes you can find this one item immediately (in just one or two seconds), so the pacing of the gameplay is clunky and disjointed. Even when you're given a short list of items to find, you can often find all of the objects in a minute or less. In all of the game modes, no matter what you do, there's absolutely no penalty for doing anything wrong. So if you ever do forget something about the case or can't figure out what the game is asking for, you can just keep clicking (guessing) until you get it right. In my book, that's a bad thing, not a good thing. Throughout the game, you spend most of your time clicking through dialogue with no actual real interaction or gameplay, which gets tedious. There is some bonus content, though you do not have to beat the game to unlock it. It's all available from the beginning. First, there's mahjong. It's just your standard solitaire style mahjong. If you don't already have another version, it's okay, but it's not in the same league as Mahjong Quest/Quest Trio. Second, if you have a DSi, there are these sort of mad libs-style cases that you can do. You are prompted to take photos of different things/people, and then it works those photos into a little story. The stories are quite silly, but I guess some people might enjoy this. It might be fun if you're stuck somewhere with a group of friends. Overall, I found WMC way too easy with lots of mildly interesting (and sometimes silly) dialogue to click through but not enough actual gameplay, and it took me only 2 hours and 10 minutes to beat the game. If I'd paid $5-$8 for this one through DSiWare, I'd be okay with that. For a $30 retail game, it's a total ripoff.

This is a lot more fun than I thought it would be. The graphics are really good...better that what I expected. Its just like a murder mystery. I am really into hidden object games and this is just perfect for me.

The storyline is good but the game was too easy and solving the crime was easier than I thought it would be. It wasn't challenging enough.

Women's Murder Club is a fun game, but you solve the mystery in less than four hours. You also have another mystery to solve using your own pictures on DSI, but again it doesn't take long. I spent most of my time playing the Majongg game just to feel like I was getting my use out of the game.

This is a good game. Gets a little boring, Not hard to play at all. ( well, one puzzle is like a rubix cube, it is really hard) But, overall it is a good game.

A lot of fun.

Love the books & the short lived tv series. Love this game! 5 stars\4 thumbs up!
