In CLUE: IT, you and your friends take on the roles of the brave kids from Derry, Maine. The objective? To figure out who Pennywise, the dancing clown, will abduct, what sinister object he'll use to lure the victim, and most importantly, from where he'll take them. The board takes you through iconic town locations, from spooky streets to dark sewers, each with its own mystery to unravel. You'll need to use your sharp memory to recall emerging clues and deduce every detail. Gameplay involves grid movement, where every step counts, and luck can come from a dice roll or a spinner.

This game is perfect for fans of Stephen King's books, horror movies, and of course, for Clue lovers seeking a macabre twist.
