About the game

What you do in a play session

Imagine you're enjoying a luxury getaway aboard the Lady Marigold II, a high-end yacht hosting the ocean's most coveted casino. Everything seemed perfect until a sinister storm rolled in, and suddenly, you spot the captain face down in the water! Now the party mood is gone: the ship is taking on water and time is running out. In Clue: Sabotage on the High Seas, you and your friends must act fast to survive and, while you're at it, solve the whole mystery. After all, who pushed the captain overboard, where did it happen, and why?

This game is an explosive blend of classic Clue investigation with the adrenaline of an Escape Room. The board isn't fixed; it's modular, meaning you build the ship as you explore the rooms. As you move through the yacht, you'll draw cards, solve puzzles, and unlock new areas to gather clues. It's a race against the clock and the sea! Once you've managed to escape the sinking ship, the final challenge is to piece everything together and make the correct accusation. If you nail the culprit, the location, and the motive, the whole group wins. It's the perfect game for those who love a good mystery but want something more dynamic and cooperative than traditional Clue. Grab your detective hats and hurry before the ship goes down!
