And with what Weapon?

  4. How to Play JClue • Each player starts with some of the cards of potential suspects/rooms/murder weapons and can disprove the other's accusations by revealing those cards to the accuser. • Move your piece around the mansion • When you enter a room make a murder suggestion based on: who, where, and how? • Use a checklist to keep track and eliminate possible suspects/rooms/weapons. • Finally, once you are sure of what took place, make an accusation. If correct, you win JClue!
