About the game

What you do in a play session

Oh snap, the group's been betrayed! Someone offed the guards while you were out, and now it's a race against time to uncover the truth. Your mission: figure out WHO committed the murder, WHERE the crime happened, and WHAT weapon was used. You'll step into the shoes of iconic characters like Rick, Daryl, Michonne, Glenn, Carol, or even Negan (yep, he's in on it too!) as you scour Alexandria for clues.

This game drops you right into the heart of the action, blending the classic Clue deduction gameplay with the grim atmosphere of The Walking Dead. You'll navigate the board, making strategic accusations to eliminate suspects, locations, and weapons that don't fit the grim reality. It's a tense hunt for the truth where every move counts. The goal is to correctly identify the killer, the murder location, and the murder weapon to win. If you're a fan of the show and enjoy a good deduction game with a dash of dice-rolling luck, this version is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. Do you have the detective skills to crack this mystery before the walkers (or another survivor) get you?

Get ready to relive the tension of The Walking Dead with familiar mechanics but a fresh, suspenseful twist that will keep you guessing who betrayed the group. It's a fantastic choice for those looking for something a bit lighter but still engaging, perfect for playing with friends and testing your deductive reasoning in a post-apocalyptic setting.
