Cluedo Challenge

Updated: Apr 24, 2020


✰Cluedo (or Clue) is a board game where the object of the game is to determine who murdered the game's victim, where the crime took place, and which weapon was used.

✰Each time I post a set of three books (that fits one suspect, one weapon, one room), a moderator from The Challenge Factory group on Goodreads will will tell me which of the three I got correct.

✰Once I have correctly guessed a Suspect, Weapon or Room, I do not have to read a book for it when preparing for another guess.
