    While it has some decent ideas and story beats at its core, mechanically it plays slowly and in a pretty clunky manner, detracting from the overall experience.

    Clue: Murder by Death is a modern take on the classic board game, bringing 3D graphics and open world exploration to the mystery solving. Investigate the scene, interview suspects, and eventually present your case, all within only two hours. Unfortunately, there are numerous bugs within that timeframe.
