When it comes to iconic board games, few can claim the rich history and multitude of versions that Cluedo (or Clue, if you prefer) boasts, aside from the legendary Monopoly. Now, fans eager to dive back into the nostalgia of this classic can do so through Marmalade Game Studios' popular mobile adaptation.

Excitingly, Marmalade is set to launch a new character pack featuring the 2016 versions of the beloved Cluedo cast. This pack will include updated renditions of Miss Scarlet, Colonel Mustard, Reverend Green, Professor Plum, Dr Orchid, and Mrs Peacock. However, access to these characters will require a paid purchase.

In addition to the new characters, players can now opt to play with the original 1949 ruleset. This retro version brings back several features that were altered in the 2023 digital edition. Key changes include set starting positions for tokens, a fixed turn order, and the limitation of making only one suggestion per room entry. These elements promise to bring a more traditional Cluedo experience to the digital platform.
