Solving a mystery murder is a perfect way to spend your night playing with family and friends especially with a classic detective game, Cluedo! Cluedo from Parker Brothers has intrigued generations of game-playing families for a long time. It has always been one of my favourite games to play with my sisters!
I am delighted to get this classic game to play and this will never get tired! This retro collectible packaging has the classic game board that you know and love, but with retro components based on the 1986 edition. This is suitable for aged 8 and above, and for three to six players.
As well as the game board, the box also contains a card deck with retro graphics, Vintage Detective notes, solution envelope, instructions, 6 classic wood play pieces, retro weapons and die.
The story revolves around Mr Boddy who is apparently the victim of foul play, is found in one of the rooms of his mansion. To win the game, you must determine the answers to these three questions, who done it, where and how. The six suspects are Colonel Mustard (Yellow play piece), Miss Scarlet (Red), Professor Plum (Purple), Mr Green (Green), Mrs White (White) and Mrs Peacock (Blue).
Shuffle the three group cards (Suspect cards, Room cards and Weapon cards) separately and place them face down on the table. Then take the top card from each group and place it into the solution envelope. Mix the rest of the cards together and deal them facedown one at a time to each player. Now you are ready to play and make your accusation!
We played this game with friends and they all loved it, especially the children. This was their first time playing it and they had fun guessing and being a detective! It is a great challenging game for them to question and making their own decision to guess the suspects. I would definitely recommended if you are looking for a game to entertain all ages! You can get this retro classic game in good retailers and Amazon.

It’s a great family game and board games bring everyone together. I would give this to my friends family the are mum and dad with 2 amazing kids. One of parents has suffered a severe mental illness and the one thing they do together is play games. It’s good for there development and the ill parent. I’m careful not to give to much away here as they feel there is still such a stigma from mental illness and are still very ill.
