This is one of my son's favourite games, not least because he always beats me.

Always voted as being in the top ten family board games, Cluedo is a bit of a classic. Millionaire Samuel Black has been murdered.  One of his disfunctional guests did it so who was it, how did they do it and where?  As you move round the house and ask questions of your competitors, can you pice together the truth?  Was it Mrs Peacock, the Rev. Green or the new character, the mysterious Dr Orchid and what weapon did they use and where?

We have this game on the shop counter and I love challenging customers to play this excellent observation game.  I am normally beaten but frequently end with a sale.  Roll the two dice and be the first to grab the piece matching the symbols on the dice.  The fun bit though is pinching the pieces that your oppponent has already got.

Made from good quality domino-like pieces.
