Speaking of games, there is a new Cluedo:

Thank you for coming. You may be wondering why you have all been called here, to the drawing room. I am afraid there has been a terrible murder. Colonel Mustard is dead.
Yes, madam, you may well gasp. The Colonel has received his last orders. And he is far from the sole victim, I am afraid. Mrs Peacock struts no more. Miss Scarlett's blood soaks the Persian carpet. Professor Plum is beyond reinvention. The Rev Green hasn't a prayer. And Mrs White, doyenne of the kitchen? Her goose is cooked.
