Clue: Naruto (USA-CL086-711)
Clue: Naruto is a mystery board game from The Op for 2–6 players, ages 8+, that plays in about 60 minutes.
How it plays
A Jonin from a neighboring village has been slain and the ninjas of the Hidden Leaf Village are being framed. Play as Naruto and his closest friends to work out WHO from the Akatsuki did it, WHAT weapon was used, and WHERE they are hiding.
It plays like the Clue you know. Three answers are sealed in the case file at the start. On your turn you move around the board, step into a location and make a suggestion; the other players secretly show you a card that proves it wrong if they can.
Keep track of what you've seen on your detective sheet. When you think you've cracked all three answers, make an accusation and check the case file. Get it right and you win.
Saga Table Talk
Great for: Fans of the show or film who like a slow-burn mystery, and families with kids around 8 and up who are ready for a little deduction.
What a game night feels like: Quiet note-taking, sly suggestions, and a lot of "hmm, why did she show me that one?" The table gets tense as players get close to an accusation.
