Colourful Clues
A downloadable kinetic novel for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Inspired by the original Cluedo board game, but with a bit of a twist. Taking place in 1949 England, five unique people find themselves caught in a storm for one reason or another, so they all take shelter in a nearby manor where a host is holding some sort of mystery masquerade party where most guests refer to themselves by aliases. Intrigued by the events, the host extends the invitation to these mystery guests. Due to the storms malice, all guests present, both expected and unannounced are welcome to stay the night. However, things take a chilling turn when the murdered corpse of one of them turns up the next morning, throwing them under their own house arrest in order to solve the mystery for themselves, else more lives could be at risk.
THIS IS NOT A GAME. This is a Kinetic Novel, not a Visual Novel. It's a linear story with no options.
Warning: This story contains ideologically sensitive material that may not be suited for some audiences. The content includes depiction and allusion to sexual violence, abusive behaviours, racism, homophobia, childhood trauma, and murder. If you are uncomfortable with such topics, you may wish to click away now. Thank you.
The game will receive a (hopefully soon) future update of updating sprites to be full colour and fixing any glitches (including the couple of missing lines and the glitch with sprites).
