"2016 Cluedo Mobile Game Revives 1949 Retro Rules and Cast"

by Brooklyn May 20,2025

With its vast array of versions and permutations, it's challenging to find a classic board game with a richer history than Cluedo (or Clue, as it's known in some regions), perhaps only rivaled by the iconic Monopoly. Now, fans eager to experience the nostalgia of Cluedo can do so through Marmalade Game Studios' popular mobile adaptation.

Marmalade is set to launch a new character pack featuring the 2016 versions of the beloved cast, including Miss Scarlet, Colonel Mustard, Reverend Green, Professor Plum, Dr Orchid, and Mrs Peacock. This pack, available for purchase, will bring these characters back into the digital realm. Additionally, players will have the option to play with the original 1949 ruleset, adding a layer of retro charm to the game.

What changes can you expect with the 1949 ruleset? This option will revert several modifications made in the 2023 digital edition. Tokens will start at specific squares, the turn order will follow a fixed sequence, and players will be limited to making only one suggestion per room entry.

The studio's ongoing support ensures that Cluedo remains fresh and engaging, with new levels and features continuously added.
