Oddworld Cluedo Idea
 
I got the idea by watching this Let's Play of Abe's Oddysee. (Which I recommend)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVwCi...eature=related

People: [Abe] [Molluck] [Aslik] [Alf] [Dripik] [Phleg]
Weapon: [Grenade] [Meat Grinder] [UXB Mine] [Spoocebow] [Slog] [Slig's Rifle]
Places: [Rupture Farms] [Scrabania] [Paramonia] [Necrum Mines] [Soulstorm Brewery] [FeeCo Depot]

For example:
Abe was bitten to death by a Slog in Necrum Mines.
Phleg was sliced by a Meat Grinder in FeeCo Depot.
Alf was blown to bits with a UXB Mine in Scrabania.

It looks like a great idea! :)

Just one thing though, the murder victim tends to be a set person, while it is the murderer who varies from game to game.

Maybe for the victim just have Abe, he's the only character that's been to all those locations.

In clue, the victim isn't one of the characters, just a guy in a mansion. Mr. Body. every time. The point is to figure out who dunnit like Jango said. I think the victim should be some corporate CEO industrialist or something.

Cluedo is a much better name than Clue. Can Americans not pronounce 'do' or something? Also, pedantry forces me to point out that the guy who got murdered was Mr. Black, fitting with the other colour-based characters.

oh I must have got the yankee version cause I'm Merican.

I realised the original was like "It was Mr Red in the Dining Room with the Lead Pipe".
I guess we need to work on our version a little bit :P

"It was Molluck in the stockyards with fall damage."
Seems all you really need to do is change the victim and the potential murderers, murder weapons, and crime locations. After that you just need to make a suitable board, game pieces, and cards and you're set.

You could just get an old Cluedo board + cards and use sticky labels to change the names of things into Oddworld.
