Product Description
Springfield is in shambles. Chief Wiggum suspects foul play when he finds wealthy industrialist Charles Montgomery Burns dead. In a typical display of incompetence, Wiggum rounds up six likely suspects: Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Krusty the Clown and Waylon Smithers. He gives them 24 hours to solve the crime through a real life game of Clue. The fingered suspects must dress-up as their favorite Clue game character to solve the mystery. Their job is to figure out who killed Mr. Burns, where the crime occurred and what weapon was used.

Game includes square gameboard, six collectible Simpsons suspect tokens, six zinc weapons, confidential case file, deck of suspect, weapon and location cards, detective notebook pad and dice. For 3 to 6 players.

Editorial Review
Okay, it's not the most complex toy that's ever been attempted. They didn't re-invent the rules of the classic murder mystery game Clue, they simply reproduced it with characters, locations, and weapons from the world of The Simpsons. But that simplicity is what makes this set so much darn fun. In this version, Mr. Burns has been found dead. Marge is now Mrs. Peacock, Homer is Mr. Green, Krusty is Colonel Mustard, Bart is Professor Plum, Lisa takes the role of Miss Scarlet, and, perhaps most delightfully, Waylon Smithers, is Mrs. White. Weapons include a poison donut and a plutonium rod, while locales include the power plant and Krustylu Studios. If all these references confuse you, well, it's still a game of Clue and a great game to play. But if these references send you off into a gleeful reverie of repeated catch phrases and favorite episode memories, then you really need this game. --John Moe

5 out of 5 stars Clue for the Simpsons   February 11, 2010
savvy shopper
What else can be said. It's basically Clue with Simpsons characters. If you like Clue and you like the Simpsons you will be happy, we are.


4 out of 5 stars Collector's Item - no! Fun Game - yes!!!   June 7, 2009
N. Usher (Atlanta, GA USA)
My husband is a huge fan of the "Simpsons" and has collected the memorabilia for years. When this game came out, I quickly purchased it, expecting that it would remain sealed and become a highlight of my husband's collection.

Imagine my surprise when I came home late from work to find my husband and two daughters having the time of their lives playing "Simpsons Clue". Some collector's item, huh? Oh well - they could have at least waited for me.

By the way, "Simpsons Clue" is the same great game as "Clue", just with all the "Simpsons" characters. Playing with the zany Springfield folks only makes it more fun.



5 out of 5 stars Simpsons spin on a classic game   December 2, 2008
Sara White (Salt Lake City, UT USA)
I really like the Simpsons. I have all of their seasons and many other books and other games of the simpsons. I have loved clue ever since I was a little girl, and I think this is a great edition of clue. Lisa is miss scarlet, and the weapons include a plutonium rod and poisoned donut. this is a great game and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys clue and the simpsons.


5 out of 5 stars Original CLUE with a fun twist   September 8, 2008
L. Bilboe (Quakertown, PA)
Plays exactly like the original Clue game, just with Homer, Bart, etc... Teaches deduction and problem solving skills. Really funny characters, weapons and rooms.


4 out of 5 stars Fun, Fun, Fun!   January 18, 2008

This game is like the original Clue, but the weapons, characters, and rooms are different. My son and I love playing this game! It helps with his reading skills also, which is a plus.
