by Oliver Apr 17,2025

With its rich history and numerous variations, Cluedo (or Clue, if you prefer) stands as one of the most iconic board games, rivaled perhaps only by the legendary Monopoly. Fans of this classic whodunit can now dive back into the nostalgia with Marmalade Game Studios' acclaimed mobile adaptation.

Marmalade is set to enrich the game further by introducing a new character pack featuring the 2016 versions of the beloved cast. This includes Miss Scarlet, Colonel Mustard, Reverend Green, Professor Plum, Dr. Orchid, and Mrs. Peacock. This pack will be available as a premium addition, allowing players to experience the game with these updated characters.

Moreover, players can opt to play with the original 1949 ruleset, which reverts several modifications made in the 2023 digital edition. Under these retro rules, tokens will start at set locations, the turn order will follow a fixed sequence, and you'll be limited to making just one suggestion upon entering a room. This brings a fresh yet familiar twist to the gameplay, enhancing the challenge and nostalgia.

The butler did it!The digital version of Cluedo showcases the dedication Marmalade has poured into it, drawing inspiration from the social deduction genre that has gained popularity. Yet, the studio continues to evolve the game, ensuring it remains engaging with new levels and features.

So, whether you're a long-time fan or a newcomer, now might be the perfect time to jump back into Cluedo and test your detective skills to solve the mystery once and for all.
