  Board game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A board game is a game played with counters or pieces that are placed on, removed from, or moved across a "board" (a premarked surface, usually specific to that game).
Board games first became widely popular among the general population early in the 20th century when the rise of the middle class with disposable income and leisure time made them a receptive audience to such games.
Although many board games have a jargon all their own, there is a generalized terminology to describe concepts applicable to basic game mechanics and attributes common to nearly all board games.

The game is essentially a murder mystery that requires the player to solve it, and that doesn't seem too different from normal movies that use similar plots.

This game was excellent, faithfully reproducing the fun we all fondly remember while at the same time adding the possibility of moving among the rooms in three-dimensional space rather than just on a flat board.
Using all of the original "Clue" characters--my favorite of which has always been Professor Plum--this new release plays like a mystery novel with tons of unexpected twists and turns.
Although the connection to the original board game is somewhat loose, involving primarily similar characters and sleuthing to solve who committed a murder, this is a noble and clever expansion of the original theme that involves much more penetrating, complex, and, ultimately, riveting detective work.
