Gameplay

Mobygames explains the gameplay:

• CLUE Classic is another conversion of the classic board game Clue/Cluedo. Like in the original, three cards are randomly selected showing the murderer, the weapon and the room where the crime happened. The objective is to deduct these cards by moving between rooms, making accusations and analysing the information gathered.
• The game only supports computer adversaries (up to 5). The interface has a notebook where the clues and cards status can be stored. Badges are awarded for special achievements like solving the case in less than 10 turns or completing a number of cases.

Critical reception

BoardGameBeast rated the game 4 out of 5 stars, describing it as a truly perfect rendition of the classic English board game with great graphics and creepy atmosphere". It criticised the lack of multiplayer option, and the fact that Hasbro stopped download editions. Gamezebo rated the game 4 stars out of 5, saying the good included "Animations and sound effects; Faithfully reproduces tabletop edition's mechanics; Charm and personality; Eliminates much of the real game's hands-on busywork", and the bad included "No head-to-head multiplayer; Can get repetitive; Need to sit through canned animations". Mobygames gave the Windows version a MobyScore of 3.7.
