Clue: Master Detective is vastly superior to regular Clue

[conuly]

There's better balance between the who, the what, and the where. (Though I still don't know why we're so incompetent we can't tell the difference between strangulation and gunshot wounds.)

I spent a ridiculous sum buying a copy of Master Detective used, because it was out of print.

I'm both pleased and perturbed to note that it's now back in print. So, um, buy yourself a copy?

Mystery world forensics are like comic book physics-people have had non-fatal gunshot wounds and have been nearly strangled and you just can't tell how old these things are.

There, now you have a plot bunny to hide on your nearest writer. Not It!

And how is it you might not know you're the guilty party? (My family tends to ham it up if we're suspecting ourselves. "I suspect that it was myself, Miss Scarlet! - in a fit of passion which I forgot due to a conveniently timed bout of amnesia - in the, um, ballroom, with the lead pipe. See, all that lead messes with the brain."

That's an option?!

It's your surprise twin, who should be a surprise to yourself.

Identical twins? Well, why not.

Unless identical cousins are funnier.
