In some international versions of the game (mostly the Spanish-language ones), the colours of some pieces are different, so as to correspond with the changes to each suspect's unique foreign name variations. In some cases, rooms and weapons are changed in addition to other regional variances. [34]

First, put all of the weapon tokens in the middle of the board. Place the characters on their labelled starting squares, or in the middle of the board if there are no labelled starting squares on your board. You should use all of the tokens - six weapons and six characters - regardless of how many players there are. Once one card has been revealed to you, your turn ends - you do not get to ask the remaining players. When you see a card that’s not in the envelope, cross it off your clue sheet - you know it can’t be part of the solution. (This means if you name a suspect, weapon and room, and nobody can answer - and you don’t have those cards - that’s the solution.) Play alongside your favourite characters including Tyrion Lannister, Petyr Baelish and Missandei, enter special locations from the Pyramid of the Great Masters to the Fighting Pit of Daznak, and King Tommen’s bedchambers to Qyburn’s Laboratory to uncover the hidden secrets that await The most significant change to game play is that once the suspect cards have been taken, the remaining cards are dealt so that all players have an even number of cards (rather than dealt out so that "one player may have a slight advantage"). This means that depending on the number of players a number of cards are left over. These cards are placed face down in the middle and are not seen unless a player takes a turn in the pool room to look at them.We ship only within the UK and Northern Ireland.

With the launch of the US 1972 edition, a television commercial showed Holmes and Watson engaged in a particularly competitive game. Adjusting with the times, in 1979 US television commercials a detective, resembling a bumbling Inspector Clouseau from the popular Pink Panther film franchise, looks for clues. [13] In 1986, the marketing slogan added "Classic Detective Game" which persists through the last 2002/2003 edition. In the 2016 edition Mrs. White was replaced by Dr. Orchid, a young biologist and adopted daughter of the victim, represented by a pink token. [19] Dr. Orchid was replaced by Chef White in the 2023 UK and North American editions. [16] [17] [18] The board game spawned a franchise, which since 1985 has expanded to include a feature film, mini-series, a musical, numerous books and several video games.There’s a mystery to solve in Westeros and beyond, in Game of Thrones Cluedo! Will you identify the assassin in Meereen or uncover the treacherous pot in the Red Keep? With 12 characters and beautifully detailed castle shaped holders, and special weapons, this is Cluedo like you’ve never played before, The ultimate Game of Thrones. Games magazine included Clue in their Top 100 Games of 1980, praising it as "still the classic detective game", [35] Top 100 Games of 1981 ("[the] characters in this 32-year-old game have become household words"), [36] and Top 100 Games of 1982 ("Millions love this classic mystery game").

The North American versions of Clue also replace the character "Reverend Green" from the original Cluedo with "Mr. Green". This is the only region to continue to make such a change. Minor changes include "Miss Scarlett" with her name being spelt with one 't', the spanner being called a wrench, and the dagger renamed a knife. In the 2016 U.S. edition, the knife was changed to a dagger. Until 2003, the lead piping was known as the lead pipe only in the North American edition. The makers of Cluedo have gone and killed Professor Plum The Telegraph, Robert Colvile, 15 August 2008 (retrieved 1 November 2009)
