Clue: The Movie Edition Game

[Marc Wagner]

So, Clue is my #1 favorite board game of all time. I have more versions than I can count and some of them I paid far too much to get my hands on... I even have the VCR game editions.

The one that I had always hoped for was one based on the movie.

I have Clue: The Movie Storybook and the inside cover is a blueprint of the mansion in the movie. This could be textured to be used as the game board


Next, there were some EXCELLENT paintings from this artist:
Movie stuff by MrOrozco on deviantART
He painted them on commission
I pulled the individual characters apart to be used as playing pieces.

UPDATE: 09/19/19
I've picked this back up and have been working to get this done! I redid the cards in the 1986 version style:

Card back:


Character cards:


Weapon cards:


For the board, I am recreating the rooms as they looked in the movie but using the layout of the standard 1986 board.
Rooms done so far:

That is too cool, I can't wait to see how it turns out!

Hey Marc, how's the board game coming? I love the art work on the cover! and the layout looks perfect. I'm impressed so far. If there's anything I can do to help just ask, keep up the great work!

Yes I've seen that! Someone was trying to put this together a few years ago over on the mystery games boards but nothing came of it. I will have some progress updates here soon. I am making the playing pieces tomorrow!

 

[Barry Taylor]

I happen to find it as I was doing research for mine and thought it would be perfect for you. Your even making the playing pieces? Damn, I can't wait to see.

Marc, I got them done and they look awsome. Printed, cut and Laminated. They turned out better then I thought. So, I made an extra set for your board game. If you want them just pm me your address and I'll mail them off first thing.

New versions in movie credit style. Not sure which I like best...


BIG thanks to Rik1138 for his screen camps from the blu-ray.

Great idea with the paper clips.

looking good so far

Great idea with the paper clips.

I have a set of plastic stands on the way. I figured the binder clips would serve as a good sub while I wait

This is really nice work, well done. I'm excited to see the completed article.

Used to have that version of the game when I was a kid. One of my favorite movies. Need to rewatch it again and see if it's ok for my daughter. Can't remember enough details.

Depends on how old your daughter is

Yes I am still working on this. I am thinking that because of the way the mansion is set up, the traditional was of playing is problematic. I am working on new rules specifically for this version.
