How to Play
In Clue: Vintage Bookshelf Edition, players work together as detectives to solve a mystery by determining who committed the crime, with what weapon, and in which room. Here’s a brief overview of the gameplay:
- Setup: Place the game board in the center and select your character token. Shuffle the suspect, weapon, and room cards, then secretly select one card from each category and place them in the mystery envelope. Deal the remaining cards to the players.
- Move Around the Mansion: On your turn, roll the dice and move your token through the rooms of the mansion. Enter different rooms to make suggestions about the crime.
- Make Suggestions: When you enter a room, make a suggestion about the suspect, weapon, and room (e.g., "I suggest it was Miss Scarlet with the revolver in the library"). Your opponents must reveal a card that matches one of your suggestions if they have it, allowing you to eliminate possibilities.
- Collect Clues: Use the detective notepad to keep track of the clues you gather, crossing off suspects, weapons, and rooms as you narrow down the correct combination.
- Make an Accusation: When you think you’ve solved the mystery, make an accusation. Check the cards in the mystery envelope – if you’re correct, you win the game! If not, you’re out, and the remaining players continue the investigation.
The familiar gameplay, combined with the luxurious packaging, makes each round of Clue: Vintage Bookshelf Edition an enjoyable experience that captures the spirit of the classic game.
