“Mrs. White had the knife.” … I’ve started to realize that I don’t understand this version of clue

[@trevski82]

I think it means Mrs White (the cpu) has the knife card.

[@musickid43]

This version of the game internally places each character and each weapon in a room. Each suggestion reveals a little bit about either where a weapon or character was, or who had what weapon. The cards are just to indicate which objects are not part of the final solution. Saying that White had the knife means she had the knife for whatever room she was in.

[@gracemangum]

Yeah this version threw me WAY off

[@Jellybeansatdusk]

This version seems faster bc if you can definitively nail down one person or one weapon or one place…as soon as you know who was where with what you know who did it. Rather than having to narrow it down to one weapon, one person, one place. It gives you the info

I remember having this on a 3.5" floppy disc back in the day, but mine was an expanded edition with extra rooms and weapons. I should see if i can get it running again. Also, does anyone here remember the Clue book series? Each one was a collection of short stories where you had to use clues to rule out suspects to solve them, and in each book the last story had Mr. Boddy being killed. Then in the NEXT book, the preface would be written by Mr. Boddy describing how he ~didn't~ die in the previous book, and what bizarre mixup caused people to think he did. The stories themselves were hilarious, with all the characters having ridiculous personalities based on the game cards (Ms. Scarlet being a socialite floozy who'd dated half the world at some point or another, Prof. Plum being an EXTREMELY absentminded genius whose inventions always caused disasters, etc). I wonder if I could get them digitally, i wouldnt mind reading them again.

SO THE THING ABOUT SNES CLUE... It doesn't play like clue. In standard clue, you make a guess (weapon-person-location) and then you go around the table, person by person, until someone has one of the cards you suggested. They show it to you (or one of them, if they have multiple) and then your turn is done. SNES CLUE IS NOT LIKE THAT. In SNES CLUE, the game creates a scenario. At the time of the murder, everyone was in a place, every weapon was in a place. Some rooms were empty, Some just had a murder weapon and nobody in it, some rooms had a person with a murder weapon, some had a person and a murder weapon in it but were innocent, and one has a person, a murder weapon, and a murder. Your goal is to figure out who was where and had what weapon. If you make a correct suggestion, someone will either pipe up that "they have proof that X was innocent" or it will tell you that was a very interesting scenario.
