In Clue: Squishmallows Edition, someone crashed the squad's sharing party, and now Winston's mac n' cheese is missing! Players are challenged to use their best deduction skills to help out the Squishmallows. With six character movers to choose from – Leonard, Cam, Lola, Zozo, Avery, and Emily – explore a fancy mansion and find out Who ate the mac n' cheese, Where they perpetrated the delicious crime, and with What item left as evidence. With a super cute spin on the classic Clue components, weapon tokens are now "custom items" representing the possible item that was left behind when perpetrating the delicious crime, including Popcorn, a Bucket Hat, a Popsicle, a Fanny Pack, Headphones, and Sunglasses. Designed for two to six players, ages eight and up, Clue: Squishmallows Edition features custom-illustrated artwork displaying several original Squishmallows locations, including The Pool, Lounge, and Bowling Alley. The game also includes six Personality cards, 21 Rumor cards, 21 Support cards, and the infamous Clue mystery revealing envelope.
"Following the successful launch of Monopoly: Squishmallows Edition last fall, we're so excited to be expanding our lineup of licensed Squishmallows games yet again with the addition of Clue: Squishmallows Edition," said Dane Chapin, CEO of The Op.
