Super Cluedo Challenge (1986)

About this game

An extended version of Cluedo, employing a more complicated system. There are now 9 suspects and 9 weapons, plus the house gardens in which are placed four garden ornaments. Cards are number and color coded uniquely, murder cards are kept in special holders, and not all remaining clue cards are dealt to the players. Clues are collected by obtaining special counters, and referencing the number on this to a list of clues on the detective notes. Some clues will inform players of a super clue, and give its location (e.g. "There is a clue on the bird table"). There are never any suggestions as in normal Cluedo/Clue; only accusations.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 9.
• Rules load. At 2.2/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
