How to Play Clue

Who killed Mr. Body? In Clue, you play one of six suspects of a murder that just took place at Mr. Body's mansion. A card representing the killer, the murder weapon used, and the room where the murder took place are put in an envelope at the start of the game. The rest are given to the other players. The game takes place by making accusations of who killed Mr. Body, where he was killed, and what he was killed with.

Basic Clue Game Instructions

The basic Clue instructions are:

• Roll dice to move to a room on the board.
• There, you can make an accusation, and bring the player piece and weapon into that room.
• The other players have to disprove this accusation by showing one of their cards (not in the envelope).
• If they can't, the players turn continues to move and possibly make another accusation.
