The FMV sequences have been downscaled to little QuickTime files for the CD-Rom, and are presented in only about 1/4 of the game's screen (the rest of which is a nondescript background bordered by a pocket watch). Everything is cross-referenced, so clicking on Revolver, for example would bring up every instance the Revolver had been mentioned/seen in a given game (either in person by the player, or seen/mentioned in flashbacks). The physical notepad is replaced with a detailed case file on the computer screen. Still images accompany suspects' testimonies, while a floating, rotating weapon appears for specific questions re: a suspect's knowledge of a selected weapon.
The video interrogations are replaced with audio clips. IMO, the CD-Rom corridors are hideous, the walls changing colors every time you turn a corner. The corridors between the rooms are completely redesigned. Secret passages & accusations count as two actions, and must be done at the beginning of your turn. In a multi-player game, each player can take two actions in a single turn, a combination of moving to a room, examining evidence, questioning a suspect, or watching a video flashback. A solo player can move freely around the mansion, collecting evidence & such. Blackmail, Deadly Patent, and The Road to Damascus were repurposed for the CD-Rom game - the other 3 scenarios were never adapted.īiggest differences between the Cd-Rom/Cd-i versions (that I'm aware of): Yes, the CD-Rom game was a simplified version of the two CD-i games. The blogger/game lover has also included the 10 guided tours Cyberflix offered on their website, and later on a bonus CD-Rom. The rest of us can enjoy revisiting the game for Xth time. If you've never played it, do so now! It's that good. Now if only someone could find a way to emulate the original CD-i games, so we could see all the video interrogations & 3 scenarios that didn't make the transition to CD-Rom.ĮTA: Further exploration of this blog revealed the owner has given Titanic: Adventure Out of Time the same treatment he's given Clue. Always loved the cheesy FMV sequences, and the gameplay itself is (imo) how a video game adaptation of Clue should be: a blend of an adventure game & the classic board game. Personally, I'm so stoked to be able to play this game again.

The installer automatically configures DOSBox with Windows 3.1 to get the game up & running. When it's finished, you'll simply have to double-click the Clue icon, select the scenario you want to play, and wait for it to load.

Google it, and download the program of your liking to extract the files. Go HERE, thank the nice man for all his hard work, and follow his link to download the game file & emulator.I have no idea if this can/will work on a Mac/Linux system. NOTE: I'm on a Gateway laptop, running Windows 10.
