		Cluedo & Clue Books Cluedo Detect-It-Yourself Mysteries Clue books Clue Jr. books Clue Jr.: The Case of the Missing Sunglasses Clue The Movie Storybook Clue : The Novel Cluedo Armchair Detective Cluedo Mysteries More Cluedo Mysteries Books Cluedo Detect-It-Yourself Mysteries These are two books that were published in the UK in 1991. Both start by the six suspects arriving at Tudor Close a year or so after the death of Dr. Black. They have been told to come prepared with a mystery from their past - whether burglary, prank or Murder - for them to recount over dinner. Throughout the stories, the reader must remember details of the story and study the pictures closely, as they are tested at regular intervals. Each story ends with a whodunit or howdidtheydoit; which is answered just before the next chapter. The book ends with a small mystery aligned to the dinner party. This is also explained before the end of the book. Book List: Cluedo Detect-It-Yourself Mysteries 1 Cluedo Detect-It-Yourself Mysteries 2 Back to Top... Clue books: These are a set of American mystery books based on the game. I've managed to get a few from Amazon.com - though I'm missing loads. Each book contains about 10 mini-mysteries, with Mr. Boddy being killed in the last one. At the end of each mystery is a "Logic Puzzle" type of description and a question of whodunit. So to answer the question, you may have to work out who is carrying which weapon, who was in which room, who was wearing the blue dressing gown etc. Like the Cluedo Detect-It-Yourself books, these are also fairly basic (though it is easy to make a mistake) and are probably designed for early teenagers.

Clue The Movie Storybook: A hardback book of 61 pages with 56 colour pictures from the movie and from promotional shots. Basically, it tells the story of the movie. The end is a sort of choose your own adventure ending featuring FOUR ENDINGS with pictures from the fourth ending too! The inside cover even has a really neat floorplan drawing of the house. This book is a gem but it's not in print anymore so it is really hard to find! Text by : Timothy See also: The Fourth Ending Back to Top... Clue : The Novel: Clue The Novel: written by Michael McDowell. 188 pages. Includes the 3 endings from the movie, plus a 4th ending not in the movie. Published by Ballantine Books, 1986. The dedication is kind of neat. On the copyright page it says: "This book is dedicated to Those Who Got Away With It." Text by : Matt Galucy See also: The Fourth Ending Back to Top... Cluedo Armchair Detective: Can you solve the mysteries of Tudor Close? This book by Lawrence Treat, with pictures from George Hardie, was released in 1983 and is out of print. It is quiet an impressive book with puzzles that you have to solve by reading the story and then hypothesising from the pictures. The characters are given some strange names like Horatio Green and Beryl White as well as bizarre backgrounds like Cynthia Scarlet being a former "Artiste of the Air". The puzzles are quite fun, however many have the major drawback that you virtually have to guess what the answers to the questions are - there are not enough clues and the writer presumes that you think the same way he does. Overall, an interesting book though. Back to Top...
