Clue Crew
Every case begins with a story, then reveals eight fair-play evidence reports and a final mystery question. Play solo with all evidence, or pass one device so each detective holds part of the case.

How it works
- 1Choose one to eight detectives, one to five cases, and a 5-minute, 10-minute, 20-minute, or unlimited discussion.
- 2Read the briefing, then privately memorize assigned evidence in a group.
- 3Share evidence and name the culprit within the attempt limit shown for that case; a hint costs 25 points.
A quick practice round
Before scoring anything, try one short Clue Crew round. Read the first prompt aloud, make sure everyone understands what to do, and let the group agree on any house rule before continuing.
Keep the group moving
- Give everyone a chance to pass when a prompt is not a fit.
- Keep the shared device moving in one consistent direction.
- Start with a short round, then add more once the group finds its rhythm.
