Hasbro put Clue in Fortnite, and the board game maker has plans to add even more classics to Epic’s multiplayer game soon (thanks, The Verge).

Anyway, Fortnite Clue works rather differently from the board game, and it doesn’t feature a team of players sitting around a virtual board solving a murder.

Guests search for clues, while the detective tries to protect them, which seems kind of backwards, and the culprit looks for an opening to cause mischief. And by mischief, I mean murder.
