Clue is the classic murder mystery game by Parker Brothers. During a weekend house party, our host, Mr. Boddy, is found dead inside his mansion. The object of this game is to determine the killer, the murder weapon, and the room in which the crime occurred. Each player must complete the tasks individually.
This is a solitary game.
