About the game
What you do in a play session
The Christmas chaos of 'Home Alone' hits your tabletop! In this special Clue edition, the McCallisters just returned from Paris — oops — leaving Kevin home alone. As the Wet Bandits tried breaking in, the kid set up various traps around the house. Now, a family member has pieced it all together. Your job? Figure out WHO uncovered Kevin's schemes, WHAT trap they found, and WHERE it was hidden. With classic deduction and grid movement mechanics, the game keeps Clue's essence but adds visual gags and movie references that'll make any fan smile. Get ready to relive iconic scenes while racing to solve the mystery before other players. And watch out for those nails on the staircase!

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
How many players can join?
2 to 6 home detectives can play. More people means more chaotic (and fun) investigation.
What's the minimum recommended age?
The game suggests 8+, but younger kids who know the movie can play with help. Watch out for older siblings who might prank you!
How long does a game last?
About 30 minutes on average — just enough time to uncover who saw Kevin's traps before the pizza arrives.
Do I need to know the movie?
Not required, but half the fun is in the references. If you've never seen it, at least watch the fake spider scene first!
Is it very complex?
It's simplified Clue — rules fit on 2 pages. Perfect for playing after Christmas turkey when nobody wants to think too hard.
What's different from regular Clue?
Swaps murder for mischief, weapons for homemade traps, and the mansion for Kevin's house. The detective spirit remains the same.
