With its rich history and countless variations, Cluedo (or Clue, for those who prefer the American moniker) stands as one of the most iconic board games, second perhaps only to the juggernaut that is Monopoly. Now, fans of this classic whodunit can dive back into the mystery with Marmalade Game Studios' beloved mobile adaptation, which is set to bring even more excitement to the table.
Marmalade is rolling out a new character pack featuring the 2016 versions of Cluedo's beloved cast. This paid pack includes updated versions of Miss Scarlet, Colonel Mustard, Reverend Green, Professor Plum, Dr. Orchid, and Mrs. Peacock, offering players a fresh take on these classic characters. But the nostalgia doesn't stop there. Players can also opt to play using the original 1949 ruleset, which reintroduces several elements that were modified in the 2023 digital edition. Under these retro rules, tokens will start at set locations, the turn order will be fixed, and players can only make one suggestion per room entry, adding a layer of strategy and challenge reminiscent of the game's early days.
The digital version of Cluedo is a testament to the love and care put into its development, drawing inspiration from the increasingly popular social deduction genre. Marmalade has consistently supported and enhanced Cluedo, ensuring it remains a top choice for mystery enthusiasts with additional levels and features.
So, whether you're a seasoned sleuth or new to the game, now is the perfect time to jump back into Cluedo and test your detective skills.
