Cluedo was originally marketed as "The Great New Detective Game" upon its launch in 1949 in North America. Reclusive millionaire Samuel Black has been murdered in his mansion and it's up to you to crack the case. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The board game spawned a franchise, which since 1985 has expanded to include a feature film, mini-series, a musical, numerous books and several video games. Game comes complete with 6 custom items involved in the "act of betrayal": Equation Board, Damaged Comic, Laptop, Sheldon's Couch, Sheldon's Toothbrush, and Dismantled Shelbot.During Cluedo's long history, eight unique Clue editions were published in North America (1949, 1956/1960, 1960/1963, 1972, 1986, 1992, 1996, and 2002), including miniaturised "travel" editions. Isle of Man, Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands) may take longer to reach you. The changes to the game have been criticised in the media, and by fans of the game, for unnecessarily altering classic cultural icons.

From 1950 until the 1960s, the game was marketed as "The Great Detective Game", at which time it became the "Parker Brothers Detective Game". When Boden Black's life takes a sinister turn, and his shocking blackmail scheme comes to light, the guests at his mansion are plunged into a whirlwind of suspicion and apprehension. Following the shortest path between rooms then is a good choice, even if a player already holds the card representing that room in their hand.Each player tracks their clues in a detective notepad and eliminates information to investigate who killed Mr Black; where in the mansion they did it and what weapon was used. From 1972 on, the US editions presented lush box cover art depicting the six suspects in various candid poses within a room of the mansion. This set contains a game board, a yellow murder envelope, a detective notepad, six character tokens, 21 black Cluedo cards, 13 red bonus cards, six weapon tokens, two dice and a game guide.

Play the game CLUE and use your super-sleuthing skills to detect whodunit, where, and with which weapon. In the 1980s, as in the US, Sherlock Holmes also appeared in TV advertising of the time, along with other classic detectives such as Sam Spade. This new version of the game offered major changes to the game play and to the characters and their backstories. The package includes everything you need: a solve envelope, a detective's notepad, 2 dice, and a comprehensive guide to navigate the thrilling gameplay.

If not, they may move out of the room, and if able to reach another room, make a suggestion therein, as usual. A custom version of the game was also released in the US by Restoration Hardware as Wooden Box Clue with different cover art.
