> > Hey, I *love* playing Clue. I had the chance to play it with my wife, my mom, my sister and my brother-in-law a couple of weekends ago and had a ball. Once, I lucked up and just happened to guess the correct culprit, weapon and location on the third move or so. Since it was no fun to have learned the answer without employing any strategy, I decided to confuse everyone else by giving a false accusation and thus eliminate myself from the game. It took *ages* for them to figure out the answer. Muahahahahah!!! > > > > This also reminds me of my other favorite old detective board game, a game called Stop Thief! that came out back in the '80s. It had an electronic doohickey that made a sequence of noises indicating whether the thief had walked across a floor, opened a door, broken a window, taken the subway, and so forth. Lots of process-of-elimination thinking involved. Anyone else remember Stop Thief!, or have a working version they'd be willing to sell? > > Iss "I should probably just check eBay" achar
Hey, did you know that there are collectors looking for vintage Clue games? Not as many as the ones looking for Monopoly, but still quite a few. There is even one collector looking for Stop Thief! How"for sale, one Clue game, slightly used"ard
