## What is Clued Up?

Throw away your pads and pencils, Clued Up will make you a Clue champion.

Clued Up transforms your messy notes into a crisp table, showing you for each card, at a glance: who’s holding it, who’s not holding it, who’s suggested it, who’s seen it and the likelihood of it being the card in the envelope. All you have to do is enter the details of each turn.

If you don’t want to give your opponents a chance Clued Up can go beyond just a smart scorecard. If you enable automatic deductions the app will cross-reference all of the turns in the game and locate cards for you, going way beyond what a human could achieve.

Clued Up works with pretty much any edition of Clue. 
Including: 
Alfred Hitchcock
Alien Vs. Predator
The Big Bang Theory
Doctor Who
Downton Abbey
Dungeons and Dragons
Family Guy
Firefly
Five Nights at Freddy’s
Game of Thrones
Golden Girls

The Haunted Mansion
Juicy Couture
Legend of Zelda
The Office
Penny Dreadful
Rick and Morty Back in Blackout
Scooby-Doo!
Seinfeld
Sherlock
Simpsons
Star Wars
Supernatural
The Twilight Zone
The Walking Dead

If you don’t see your edition listed you can use the card set editing feature to create any edition you like and store it in the cloud for others to use.

Instructions
Game Setup:

Enter your name then the names of your opponents in the order they are sitting, starting with the player on your left.

Select if you want the game to automatically locate cards for you. If you select to use this feature, as you record the turns in the game the app will cross-reference the location of cards from all of the player's responses and deduce for you what cards must have been shown in each go. Be sure that your opponents don’t mind you winning if you leave this switch on (or don’t tell them).

Once you’ve entered the names of the players in the game you’ll be given the option to select which edition of the game you are playing. If you don’t see your edition listed then you can create a new edition. Any edition you create will be stored in the cloud for yourself and other players to use.

After selecting your card set you then have to enter in all of the cards you have been dealt. Enter every card you are holding and then press finish.

Playing the Game:

On the main screen, you have a list of all of the items. Eliminated items are shown in blue, items held by you in green and solved items are shown in red. Underneath the item name, you will see additional information such as who does or does not hold the card, who has suggested a card and who has seen a card. You will also see stats indicating how likely each card is to be the final item as a percentage and with the progress bar under each card.

To eliminate items you need to make suggestions and enter in the suggestions that your opponents make. The app will automatically eliminate a card if it is shown to you and, if you’ve selected to have the game located cards for you, when entering another player’s suggestion, if a card is shown and it’s known that the other two cards in the suggestion are elsewhere or not held by that player the game will automatically eliminate these.

To enter your suggestion you pick the items from the table and press the ‘Your Suggestion’ button. You will ask the player to your left, if they don’t show a card to you press ‘No Cards Shown’ and move on to the next player, if they show a card you select the card from the wheel and press ‘Card Shown’.

To enter an opponent’s suggestion you do the same thing except you select ‘Other’s Suggestion’ and, on the next screen, select the player making the suggestion.

You can manually enter that a player holds or doesn’t hold a particular card by swiping the cell to the left a pressing the Eliminate/Uneliminate button.

The app will tell you when cards locations are deduced and categories are solved.

You can undo your last move if you make a mistake by pressing the menu button and selecting Undo.

### 3/5 — Decent

*2024-05-30, version 3.9.3*

I didn’t understand at first how you need to use 3 for a suggestion but I figured it out.The game made it really unclear though

### 5/5 — Unknown

*2023-07-22, version 3.9.3*

My family thinks you guys should add an accusation button

### 5/5 — Game IS goood

*2023-05-24*

I can’t play game because I am stupid but I like app..

### 3/5 — Disappointing for my specific game

*2023-03-12*

We have Clue FX, the electronic model that talks to you. Well, this app WOULD be perfect if you could change ONE THING. When you click on accusation, you should be able to click on who is accusing, and then click who showed what. In our version, you are not accusing just one person of holding 3 cards. You are accusing the whole table and anyone holding one of those 3 cards must show you that card. But this app makes you only accuse one person.

### 4/5 — Helpful companion with one big error

*2023-01-14*

Helpful to keep track of potential cards in play, understand need to show adverts. Need a mechanism to change the order that other players are being questioned in without having to reset the game

### 4/5 — Wrong number of cards in 2 player mode.

*2022-07-22*

The iPad version of the app Clued Up is fine, but Klued Up does not work right in any of the 21 card sets with 2 players. 21 cards minus 3 for the Confidential envelope leaves 18 cards. So 9 cards per player. The iPhone version seems to think you get 7. So it never calculates anything correctly, particularly rooms. It lets you enter 9 of 7 cards okay but you have to go with your gut and choose a room with 40% odds not 100%. It seems okay with 3 or 4 players. I finally bought another app for the iPhone. I used to graph all this out as a logic problem so this does beat that, but only on an iPad apparently. I was contacted by the developer, so they are responsive, kudos. On box technically the game is for 3-6 players only. 2 player version of the rules include setting aside some cards to look at when no one can prove anyone wrong, as a sort of virtual 3rd player. But the iPad and iPhone apps are still not consistent with each other. The developer said that they may put in a setting. Changing to 4 stars. We only have so many iPads and iPhones around the house when everyone is playing but this at least only effects 2 player mode.

**Developer response:** I think you’re probably playing with a different set of rules to what the game is programmed for when it comes to two player games. The app uses the Clued Up: The Classic Mystery Game rules for 2 player games. They state that when playing 2 player games 4 cards should be placed in rooms and not dealt to players. That’s in addition to the 3 in the envelope. Email me at support@bridgetech.io if you’d like to discuss. Perhaps there’s a setting I can add to accommodate your needs.

### 2/5 — makes mistakes

*2022-05-30, version 3.9.1*

can’t undo a mistake, even the undo doesn’t completely fix problems. you need a way to edit a wrong assumption. too bad it can’t just be a electronic detective note sheet, it feels like it’s cheating. also we play with younger kids getting more clues than older players and this doesn’t work well in that scenario.

### 5/5 — This is a great app

*2022-01-31*

This great because it shows you the percentage and everything for a clue game

### 5/5 — Great APP

*2022-01-16, version 3.9.1*

Makes the game easier to play, super fun.

### 1/5 — Crashes in game & won’t reopen

*2022-01-02, version 3.9.1*

Crashes in game & won’t reopen.  Have to delete/ uninstall then redownload & re put in all the cards & game rounds to play further.
