The nostalgic game Clue has been remodelled in the theme of Game of Thrones to provide a fantasy board game that allows fans of the show and books to strategies and uncover the murder of popular characters. The game replaces its noteworthy rooms, characters and murder weapons with Game of Thrones equivalents allowing players to try and figure out who is responsible for the death of a character, what was used to do the bidding and where the death occurred.
The Game of Thrones Clue game is structured much like the original, with a difference in theme. The game features rooms themed after the hit series. The 12 characters presented are divided into two different groups and can be played either with 'The Red Keep Board' or the 'Messen Board.'
