(No mysteries there.)<\/p>\n<p>As you can probably tell by the title, the game is heavily inspired by British murder-mystery stories, particularly from around the 1930s, but it&#8217;s the almost board game-like presentation that has us intrigued. Each character looks like something you&#8217;d move around on a <strong>Monopoly<\/strong> board or, we don&#8217;t know, a cuter version of <strong>Cluedo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>And, as you&#8217;d expect, murder is at the centre of the story. Lord Robert Anderson is dead, and you have two hours to find his killer and solve the murder. But you won&#8217;t just be playing as a detective, as you&#8217;ll be swapping between multiple different suspects and characters.<\/p>\n<p>Each character has their own perspective on basically everything \u2014 the way one person sees a vase is different to another, for example \u2014 adding layers to the overall mystery.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also a bigger mystery to solve involving the mansion, where the murder takes place. During each replay, you&#8217;ll come to understand more of the complex home. With 166 rooms to explore, there&#8217;s no way you can do that in a single two-hour session, right?<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gallery\"><figcaption class=\"caption\"><em class=\"credit\"><span class><\/span> Images: Cocodrolo Games<\/em><\/figcaption><\/aside>\n<p>Out now on Switch (and other platforms), you can grab Clue: Murder by Death on the eShop for <strong>\u00a318.00 \/ $19.90<\/strong> (or your regional equivalent).
