After a steady decline after the video game boom, board games are regaining popularity, but only because the companies behind them are innovating. One such way is by upgrading from 2-Dimensional boards to 3D, pop-up ones.
The Clue Premier Edition, retailing at $150, has a game board that is literally like a doll house. The board has nine sunken 3D rooms, each with detailed furnishing. The only thing that differentiates it from a doll house is that it has a non-removable, tempered glass lid placed on top, preventing tampering inside.
The board would definitely make an interesting display piece when not in use, reminding grown ups of their sleuthing days of young and bring back memories of the classic characters. My personal favourite is the dashing Colonel Mustard.
