How to USE the Player Card
Marking your Card
The Player Card can be used in many ways to track clues and your guesses. Thus helping you in the process of elimination to get to the solution of the Murder.
Using Colors
If you click a Suspect, Victim, Room or Weapon - the color will change. There are 8 possible color variations.
(Click the Word itself to rotate thru the colors).
How you use the color system is totally your choice or you may choose not to use it at all.
However, should you wish to... here is one possible variation...
ANY PUBLIC CLUE - mark that one GREEN
ANY PRIVATE CLUE - mark that one RED
Using the Square Box - ELIMINATING
If you click the square box beside the Suspect, Victim, Room or Weapon, you will see a checkmark = possibility.
If you click the square box AGAIN, you will see the Suspect, Victim, Room or Weapon with a line thru it = You have eliminated this possibility.
Using the Round Circle - GUESSING
If you are guessing, click the ROUND circle beside the Suspect, Victim, Room or Weapon to turn that choice ON.
You need to make one choice in each of the categories.
Then click PRIVATE to send your GUESS in ESP to Host) OR Click PUBLIC (to say it out loud).
Host's Response
After you guess, the Host will respond in ESP if you made a PRIVATE guess or OUT LOUD if you made a PUBLIC guess.
You will be told how many you got correct out of the 4 categories.
You will NOT know which one(s) were correct. That is where your reasoning skills come into play.
For example, you may be told... You Got 1 correct and Gain 1 Point.
So you know you got it right in 1 of the 4 categories. But which one?
At this point you might use the text area on the game board to type notes for yourself, or utilize other color variations to keep track of the result of this guess. How you use the colors if totally up to you. Figure out a system that works for YOU!
Dee's Choice - How I Use the Board (this might or might not work well for you)
I check off and eliminate ANY clue - private or public (by using the Square Box, click twice to cross off that possibility).
For guesses - I type in the notes area.... 1 of (and type the guess) or 2 of (and type the guess) etc.
As the game progresses, I revise the notes area accordingly by deleting any choice that has been eliminated by the clues.
*** Please don't fret about all the explanations given above.
If you have played CLUE you already KNOW how to play.
The Host will always explain things as needed during the game. ***
It's NOT AS HARD as it MAY SEEM! Honest!
(just takes a few games to get used to it )
