Synopsis

Utilize your brainy deductive skills to work out which suspicious character killed Mr. Body and how and where the murder was perpetrated.

Brain Power

Get together 3 to 6 players. You then put all 6 colored tokens on the beginning squares marked with the pertinent suspect's name. For instance, the white piece belongs on the Mrs. White square.

You position the weapons arbitrarily, one in each room. Sort out the twenty-one cards into 3 piles ' room cards, weapon cards and suspect cards. Then shuffle each pile of cards and put the top one of each kind into the envelope marked "Solution Cards" without viewing them. Lay the envelope on the X that is in the middle of the board.

Provide each player a pad of detective notes and a pencil. Place the left over cards together and mix them. Then deal out one card at a time face down to every player. Players ought to keep their cards out of the sight of other players.

Have each player pick a token. Play starts with Miss Scarlet and carries on to the left. A few tokens might stay idle if there are fewer than 6 players.

Roll the die and then move your token that number of spaces along the yellow squares. Pieces might move forward, backwards or to the side, however not diagonally. You enter or leave a room by traveling through the doorway or utilizing a secret passageway found in the corner rooms. Your turn ends when your token moves into a room, regardless what the die roll was.

Make a proposition after entering a room. Move the weapon and suspect into the room your token is in and express your suspiciousness. For instance, if you're in the library, you are able to move Mr. Green and the rope into the room with you and say, "I propose that the crime was committed in the Library by Mr. Green with the rope."

You then need to prove the proposition true or false. Once a proposition has been made, the player to the proposer's left checks his or her cards. If he or she holds any of the 3 cards (in that case the library, Mr. Green or the rope), he or she shows one only to the proposer. If the first player to the left does not hold any of the cards, the next player to the left checks his or her cards and so forth. The proposition is proved false once a card held by a different player is shown.

Make an accusation once no player may disprove the proposition. When you've worked out which 3 cards are in the envelope, announce that you're making an accusation and describe which cards you believe they are. Cautiously view the cards in the envelope making a point no other players can see them.

Win the game if your charge is correct. Lay the cards on the table face up. If you're incorrect, however, return the cards to the envelope and you can not move any longer. You are able to; however, disprove propositions with the cards in your hand.
