Clue was invented as "Cluedo" in the United Kingdom in 1944. The game's original title is a ploy on Clue, (it's technical title) and Ludo, a game with a similar dice play strategy. It was invented as a way to pass the time with friends while waiting out air raid drills in underground bunkers and shelters. Nonetheless, it has remained a popular game.
Yes. The name 'Cluedo' comes from the words 'clue' and 'ludo', Latin for 'I play'. The game was marketed in the US though as just 'Clue'.
Clue was invented in England in the year 1944.
Clue or Cluedo (depending on your country)
If you live in the UK (Cluedo), the victim is Dr. Black. If you live in America (Clue), he is Mr. Boddy.
Over more than 30 of them. Some of them were from the traditional clue board games.
The game was named Cluedo by Norman Watson, and a patent for the game was obtained in 1947. In 1949, however, the game was purchased by Parker Brothers, and the name was changed. The reason for the name change is not known.
6 harmful weapons in Clue (?) . There is another question "6 M W in C" and the answer is 6 murder weapons in Clue (Cluedo). It is a possibility that this may be a typo.
The Cluedo (also known as The Clue in United States of America) was originally created in Leeds by Waddingstons in 1949, United Kingdom. It was invented by Anthony Pratt.
In the game of Clue, (at least the Clue I have), there are two game modes: * Die roll * No die roll In no die roll, players move nine spaces every turn (This makes it easier for players with bad luck...). In the Die roll version players use die to determine how many spaces they move for that turn. ----InfoMac
