Hello,
I would like to organize a giant Clue game but I don’t know how to get started.
I don’t know what to begin with.
Could someone help me? :)
Thank you

Like a "murder party"?
Generally, the rules for this kind of RP event are very flexible, so I would advise you to first think about the number of players who will participate.
Then, you need to ensure that players don't get bored, meaning, for example, that there shouldn't be a death at the very beginning which leaves the player unable to do anything. The games shouldn't be too short and easy, so for the clues, you should make it more thoughtful than "I see someone so I ask them everything they know". Additionally, you should avoid team gatherings as much as possible because it is primarily an individual investigation game. You should also define the location where the game will take place, taking into account a few factors: the number of rooms (meaning walled places since players should be able to hide), the movements (a single long corridor is not enough as everyone would see each other), the "hiding spots", and ultimately, it's up to you. I don't know where you stand, could you provide a bit more information?
If you don't yet have players and want to create an IRL event for role players that you may not know, you should check out specialized RP forums, particularly for murder parties (e.g., http://www.murder-party.org/forum/), and if possible, within your city.

I really hope this helps you :)

It's just a matter of making simplistic rules; it's easier than you think :)
The foundation remains the same: players need to have clues from the start, and they should be able to obtain more as they go along (for example, you can leave a letter written by the deceased in a flower pot stating that so-and-so is innocent; I don't know, it's up to your imagination)
But you also need to provide a character sheet for each player that outlines who they are, what they were doing, and maybe a few actions they've taken or a bit of their past that could make the investigation feel more alive.

Hello! ????
Great idea to want to organize a giant Cluedo game, it's always a super fun activity that calls for everyone's imagination and deductive skills!
To get started, I recommend thinking about a few essential elements:
- The scenario: Do you want to go for a classic intrigue (a mansion, a mysterious murder) or something more original?
- The characters: Assigning roles with specific personality traits can really help participants immerse themselves in the game.
- The organization of the locations: If it's a giant Cluedo, you need a space where players can move around to gather clues. This can be indoors, outdoors, or even both.
If you're short on time or looking for more concrete ideas to make your event unforgettable, I have just the website that could help you: murderama.fr. We offer ready-made murder party scenarios, as well as practical tips for organizing this type of event. This can save you time and provide a solid foundation to get started!
