About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to solve a mystery with a giant twist! Clue: Giant Edition brings the classic deduction game with an epic feel. The mission is clear: find out who committed the crime, with which weapon, and in which of the mansion's nine mysterious rooms. The board, made up of large vinyl mats arranged in a circle, sets the mood. To move, just spin the spinner and advance to your desired room. Once there, you can pick up two Evidence Cards, but you can only keep one. And there's more: you might also get lucky and find one of the six giant, foam Tools! The goal is to collect matching colored Suspect, Room, and Tool cards, along with the corresponding physical Tool, to piece together the crime. Was it Professor Plum with the Rubber Mallet in the Library? Or Mr. Green with the Trumpet in the Billiard Room? With larger components and a slightly different experience, this Clue is perfect for those who want to relive the classic investigation with an impressive look and an extra dose of fun, ideal for families and younger players starting in the world of mysteries.
