Where it came from
Cluedo was originally conceived during the Second World War by Anthony Pratt, a British musician who designed the game as a pastime for people sheltering in air-raid bunkers. He pitched the concept to Waddingtons in 1944, and following a period of refinement regarding the board mechanics and character archetypes, it was first released in the United Kingdom in 1949.
The 1949 edition published by the Miro Company represents the French-language iteration of the game, produced under license to cater to the European market. The design stayed faithful to the classic mid-century aesthetic, utilizing the quintessential mansion floor plan and iconic weaponry tokens that established the game as a permanent fixture in the mystery genre.
