Setup
Place the board and all character tokens on their named spaces even if you are playing with less than 6 players

then, choose your character

Place all the weapons in separate, random rooms

Shuffle the clue cards and leave them facedown near the board

Sort the other cards into 3 decks: characters, weapons and rooms

Take the top card from each deck and place them inside the file envelope

No one should see the cards
Shuffle the 3 decks together and deal them among the players

It doesn’t matter if after dealing the cards, some players have more cards than others

Give each player one sheet from the detective notebook and a pen

Each player look at their cards and mark off the suspects, weapons and rooms they have as they cannot be in the envelope

Keep your sheet and cards secret

And now you are ready to learn how to play

Your goal is to solve the murder by correctly guessing who did it? With which weapon? And where?

Miss scarlett always starts

If no one is playing her, play begins with the next character clockwise

On your turn, you may move your character by rolling the dice

If you roll a magnifying glass, pick up a clue card for each magnifying glass you roll and read it out loud, then do what it says

Then, move your character token the number of squares shown on the dice roll. Magnifying glass icon counts as 1


note that you cannot move diagonally nor move through or land on a square occupied by another player token

You can skip the movement if your character is in a room and you want to remain there

Or if the room has a secret passage, you can use it by moving the character token from one corner room to its connecting corner room

Whether you moved or not, if you are in a room, you can make a suggestion to help you figure out the 3 cards in the envelope

suggest which character did it & which weapon was used

Move the suggested character and weapon to the room you are in

Example – this character is on the library – they suggest that it was scarlet with the rope in the library

The player to the left of the accuser looks at its cards

If that player has one card you asked, they must show you the card – don’t let other players see

If they have more than one of those cards, they can pick which one to show

And if the player has neither card, they must say so

If this happens, the next player checks their cards until someone shows you a card or until you`ve asked everyone

Once you`ve seen a card, you know its not inside the file envelope

Make a mark on your sheet

Play continues with the player on your left

If you think you know who did it, what and where, on you can make an accusation

You can make an accusation right after making a suggestion and you don’t need to be in the room you are going to name nor roll the dice

Example

mr blue accuses mustard with the candlestick in the living room

Then, look inside the envelope

If the 3 cards you named match with the card inside the envelope you win!

If they don’t match, you continue playing but you cannot move, make suggestions or accuse

You must show cards when another player makes a suggestion though

If no one makes a correct accusation, then the culprit got away and no one wins!

And that’s how you play clue board game!
