Sharpen your detective skills and prepare for a narrative-driven mystery like no other! Clue: Murder by Death, the immersive murder mystery game from Cocodrolo Games, is set to launch on PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation on February 13, 2026, with a mobile release later this year. Fans of classic British whodunnits can now step into a 1930s English mansion and uncover the truth behind the shocking death of Lord Robert Anderson.
A Classic Mystery Reimagined
Set against the luxurious backdrop of a sprawling 1930s mansion, Clue: Murder by Death invites players to solve a high-stakes mystery before Scotland Yard arrives. Paying homage to legendary authors like Agatha Christie and Arthur Conan Doyle, the game combines traditional whodunnit storytelling with a modern, narrative-driven twist. Players explore 166 rooms, interrogate a web of 10 suspects, and analyze hidden clues to piece together the who, how, and why of the crime.
The game’s unique mechanic lies in its multiple perspectives. Each character offers a distinct point of view, interpreting objects, conversations, and suspects differently. What one character deems suspicious may appear innocent to another. Players must navigate these subjective viewpoints across 2-hour gameplay cycles, gradually uncovering the intricate web of lies, motives, and secrets. Over roughly 22 hours of gameplay, repeated playthroughs are required to finally reveal the murderer and solve the case.
