## Description
Get your Mystery Machine ready, because this special edition of Clue brings the Scooby-Doo vibe to the investigation! If you enjoy the classic deduction game but want a cartoon twist, this is it. We're still trying to figure out who did it, with what weapon, and where, but with a few new elements that make it more fun. Each character has a special one-time-use power, like a trick up their sleeve to help you solve the mystery faster. And there are the '?' cards, which can give you a snack (with a bonus!) or land you in trouble. Watch out for the monsters, because if you draw the eighth, you're out! For two players or teams, the '?' cards are set aside, but there's a different dynamic to keep the tension high. It's the Clue you know and love, but with an extra charm that will appeal to fans of Shaggy and the gang.

## FAQ
### What's the main difference between this Clue and the traditional one?
The big news are the character cards with unique powers that can be used once per game, and the '?' cards that bring events and bonuses, plus the Scooby-Doo theme, of course!

### How many players can participate?
The game is for 2 to 6 players, making it versatile for different groups.

### Is the game very difficult to learn?
The basic rules are the same as traditional Clue, so if you've played before, you'll pick it up quickly. The additions are easy to understand and add an extra layer of fun without overcomplicating things.

### What happens if I draw a monster card?
If you draw the first 7 monster cards, they are set aside. But if you draw the eighth, you're out of the game! The monster card is shuffled back into the '?' deck so it can be drawn again.

### Are the '?' cards used in all games?
No. For games with 2 players or teams, the '?' cards are set aside at the start of the game and used differently, ensuring the dynamic works well with fewer people.

### Is it a good game for someone who has never played Clue before?
Yes! It's a great introduction to Clue, especially if the person likes Scooby-Doo. The theme helps engage players, and the additional rules don't overwhelm a new player.

### What is the average playtime?
The exact time isn't specified, but Clue games usually last between 45 to 60 minutes, depending on player experience and dice luck.
