Cluedo, known as Clue in some regions, stands as one of the most iconic board games, rivaled only by the likes of Monopoly in terms of its rich history and numerous iterations. Now, fans of this classic whodunit can dive back into the mystery with Marmalade Game Studios' acclaimed mobile version, which is set to enhance your gaming experience with exciting new features.
Marmalade is rolling out a fresh character pack featuring the 2016 versions of Cluedo's beloved cast, including Miss Scarlet, Colonel Mustard, Reverend Green, Professor Plum, Dr Orchid, and Mrs Peacock. This nostalgic nod to the 2016 edition comes as a paid pack, allowing players to revisit these characters in a modern setting.
For those yearning for a taste of the game's origins, Marmalade is also introducing the option to play with the original 1949 ruleset. This retro mode reverts changes seen in the 2023 digital edition, returning to classic gameplay mechanics. Players will find their tokens starting at set locations, turns following a strict sequence, and the ability to make only one suggestion per room entry, echoing the game's early days.
The butler did it! The digital version of Cluedo is a testament to Marmalade's dedication, blending elements of the popular social deduction genre while continuously updating the game with new levels and enhancements. The love and care put into the digital edition are evident, making it a compelling choice for both new players and long-time fans.
