Hasbro's Cluedo Reinvention Gets A Much Needed Makeover say Marketing Gurus.

Ok, so this isn't the typical type of entry you would come to expect on
a gadgets website ' but I have my reasoning. Hasbros Cluedo has been a
murder-mystery family favourite since 1946 and has seen little change
over the past 62 years.Well ' 'times they are a changing' and marketing
gurus decided that the game was in much need of a modern makeover so to
speak.Characters such as film star Kasandra Scarlet, football specialist
Jack Mustard and video-game billionaire Victor Plum will be adorning our
spiffy new board game while they hop between rooms including a newly
renovated spa and boardroom, rather than the old favourite library and
ballroom. (I'll have you know, in reality, I'd much rather a library
than a spa, but that's just me).That being said the new artillery
'gadgets' of choice are set to take the fans of Cluedo by storm! A
dumbbell, axe and baseball bat have been included in this new take on
the game and one can only imagine, with weapons like these, that this
'mansion' is set in the projects or some similar place featured on the
Crime & Investigation channel!

Whether you're a Cluedo fan, a long-standing enthusiast or simply
looking for a new board game to incorporate into your entertainment
cupboard, this modern make-over is sure to impress, and makers HASBRO
are keen to release this fresh game by December, so keep an eye out for
those little weapons 'ฆ before Jack Mustard finds you with a baseball bat!
