None of the endings are "False" endings. They're all real endings using the facts presented. The idea that two of them are possible endings and one of them is real was created for the home video release when they wanted to include all three. That being said, the "flames on the side of my face" is from Ending C, which is "What Really Happened" in the home video release.

I think Clue might be my favourite board game. Only seen the movie once, but I recall it was quite well done. I appreciated how the DVD gives you a choice of either having one of the 3 endings be randomly selected, or shows you all 3 but presents them as _"This is how it might have happened; or this is how it also could have happened; but here's how it _*_really_*_ happened."_ Pretty cool idea.

In the 1970s there was a TV game show, hosted by Jon Pertwee, called Whodunnit, which was heavily inspired by Cluedo and the Cluedo TV show was, in turn, quite similar to Whodunnit. It’s actually quite good and episodes can be found on KZfaq.

A brief addition about the whole "Ludo" derived name thing. Ludo was a game based on an ancient Indian game with similar mechanics. Americans also had a game based on that, but not called Ludo. Ours is called Parcheesi. Alas, "Cluecheesi" doesn't have quite the same ring to it.

Nice video. Most of my Clue playing days were in the 80s. I would, if I could help it, always play as Professor Plum because of his strategically advantaged starting position. P. Plum's starting position all but guaranteed that you could be in the Study in two turns, basically one of the closest to any room door. The bonus was that the Study had the secret passage to the Kitchen, so it really came down to, as P. Plum, you could potentially have two guesses with your first three turns. A huge advantage to those who only got one guess in four or more turns. Last bit, the most recent version of Clue I've played was a specialized "Two-Player" version which, as the name suggests, is designed to better accommodate just two people playing the game. I think that it was well done, and I did enjoy playing the special version.

@@TitularHeroine well, generally speaking, how you figure out the mystery is the same, that being you have to land on specific spaces to make guesses based on the cards in your hand and which ones you've discovered from your opponent, all on a revised gameboard that is smaller than the original, but this is done to better accommodate there only being two players. Really though, if you're interested in the gameplay, the game is called, "Clue: Rivals Edition" and there are plenty of KZfaq videos that show the game and how it is played. I couldn't do it justice trying to explain it in a comment.

Here in the UK I recall a gameshow version of Cluedo. It was comprised of sections with the contestants interviewing the six suspects interspersed with prerecorded scenes of them interacting with the "victim of the week" pre-murder, the suspects were often played by well known British actors such as 4th Doctor Tom Baker as Prof. Plum in one season. The suspects and rooms were the same but the selection of weapons would vary each episode. Also, Inspector Clouseau was French (though admittedly played by an English actor).

The different endings to the movie weren't randomly attached; i distinctly remember the newspaper listings advertising the theatres where you could see ending "A" or ending "B" or ending "C." The studio was clearly hoping people would see the movie multiple times at different theatres to see all the endings. If you look up the Siskel and Ebert review on here, they specifically tell people to avoid ending C, which amusingly enough was the ending with the famous Madeline Kahn "flames on the side of my face" rant.

I have always enjoyed Clue. As a kid I read the books by Scholastic and we had one of the older versions of the game. Now that I am older with a family of my own we have about 5 versions of Clue; the 1997 edition, Discover the Secrets (to which we have not actually played but I believe we took the shrink wrap off at least), the 2016 edition where they replaced Ms. White with Dr. Orchid, the Simpsons Clue, and The Walking Dead edition. My enjoyment of Clue led me to also get the game 13 Dead End Drive but it is not as enjoyable despite its cool 3D board game premise. I had not seen the VCR edition of Clue before but that would have been fun. The only VCR game I played in my youth was Nightmare.

My mom and I used to play Clue all the time when I was growing up in the 70s. More so than any other game from what I can remember. It still holds a great place of nostalgia in my heart. My wife was also a huge fan of both the game and the movie (which I've never seen). I went ahead and preordered the 4K disc that's coming out in December as a Christmas gift for her, and so that I can experience it for the first time.

The VCR game was really fun, I wish it was on DVD so we can play it again and remember how it worked.

You made a movie based on Clue. Could you have gotten the AVG Nerd and the Nostalgia Critic. Just to see them have to either work together to find the murderer, defeat the murderer, or be a victim?

Dave Thomas (aka Game Dave) is infinitely better than either the AVGN or the Nostalgia Critic. I will watch this SG Clue parody jut because he is in it.

I love the variety of content on this channel and I realize they've carved out a niche, I just wish the content could be longer as there's so much to cover about many of these topics

Growing up, my family and I played Clue all the time, and we watched the movie about a million times. To me, Clue is the greatest board game ever made.

I probably played the board game once or twice? I know there's like a dozen themed versions of it out these days. I do know folks that were big fans of the movie and VCR game, so definitely forwarding this episode so that they might see it!

No mention of Clue: Master Detective?!?! 😮 It's the best version of the game.

As someone that lives in Boston and visits Dover, New Hampshire, on a regular basis to visit my family (and Jetpack Comics, of course), I have to say that the setting of The House On Coffin Brook road is just SO New Hampshire... hilarious.

What a fantastic video!! I love how you incorporate the Halloween season into the set and even the Hasbro logo! Clue has always been a favorite game and movie. The All-star cast was an absolute riot. I saw it as a kid in the theater with just one ending. A very novel approach at adapting a 40 year old English board game into a major Hollywood motion picture. Thank you for revisiting this old friend of mine.

If you want a good game, Clue the Great Museum player is a really good board game. Nothing like the original game, it imagines a world where the guests have become security guards at a museum. Thematically it’s weird, but it’s a really good game.
