Based on the 1985 movie Clue which in turn is based on the board game Cluedo.
Set in 1950s United States during the McCarthy era. On a dark and stormy night (of course), six guests arrive at Boddy Manor and are given pseudonyms to hide their identity for the night (Peacock, White, Scarlet, Plum, Mustard, Green).
Wadsworth, the butler, reveals that they’re all being blackmailed. Then the blackmailer arrives – Mr Boddy. To what should nobody’s surprise, Mr Boddy is murdered. But no one knows who the murderer is, nor which of the six murder weapons (revolver, candlestick, wrench, lead pipe, rope, dagger) was used to do it.
The guests and staff split up to search the nine rooms of the house. Some unexpected guests arrive and there are more murders – six in total, each with a different weapon, each in a different room.
Finally all the guests line up and accuse each other of murder, just like at the end of the game.
