If you love classic detective fiction, Clue Murder by Death promises a cosy yet cerebral mystery where perception is everything.
A Murder in High Society England
Set in the glittering world of 1930s England, the story begins with the death of Lord Robert Anderson inside his sprawling Victorian estate. Players assume the role of John Smith, tasked with solving the murder before Scotland Yard arrives.
But there’s a catch.
You have just two hours.
This time-sensitive structure forms the backbone of Clue Murder by Death, creating urgency and replay value in equal measure.
A Multi-Perspective Narrative System
The standout feature of Clue Murder by Death is its unique multi-perspective investigation system.
Truth is never absolute.
Each of the mansion’s 10 residents is playable, and each sees the world differently. Objects, clues, and even other characters appear filtered through personal biases and histories.
For example:
- The butler, Mr. Benson, may interpret a missing kitchen knife as deeply suspicious.
- Lady Rose, a socialite, might overlook the same detail entirely.
To uncover the truth, players must switch perspectives and revisit scenes, piecing together contradictions to reveal hidden motives.
166 Rooms, Endless Contradictions
The mansion itself is a character in its own right. With 166 explorable rooms, every corridor and chamber may hold a crucial detail.
Each playthrough reveals new fragments of the puzzle, gradually building toward answers to the three essential detective questions:
- Who did it?
- How did they do it?
- Why did they do it?
Only when you’re confident in your conclusions can you gather all suspects together for the final accusation—delivering a dramatic moment reminiscent of classic mystery storytelling.
Inspired by Golden Age Detective Fiction
Fans of literary sleuths like Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes will immediately recognize the tonal influences behind Clue Murder by Death.
From high-society intrigue to carefully orchestrated reveals, the game channels the elegance and suspense of Golden Age detective fiction while introducing modern narrative design.
Why Clue Murder by Death Stands Out
In a crowded mystery genre, Clue Murder by Death differentiates itself with:
- A replay-driven two-hour investigation loop
- Multi-character perspective storytelling
- A sprawling Victorian mansion setting
- Deep interrogation mechanics
- A climactic accusation sequence
Rather than handing players a linear story, the game demands observation, logic, and careful comparison of conflicting viewpoints.
Available Now Across Platforms
Clue Murder by Death is available starting today via:

Whether you prefer handheld sleuthing on Switch, couch play on console, or PC precision, the mystery awaits.
Final Verdict: A Cosy Mystery with Serious Depth
With its time-loop structure, layered character perspectives, and homage to classic whodunnits, Clue Murder by Death offers more than a simple murder mystery—it delivers a logic-driven narrative puzzle built for replayability.
If you’ve ever dreamed of unmasking a killer in a candlelit manor before Scotland Yard storms in, this is your moment.
