The first level is a cooperative game where players work <a href=\"https:\/\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/how-to-win-at-clue-quickly-clue-strategies-and-tips\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"2149\">together to solve a playground issue<\/a>. The second level is a little more challenging and independent. The game also includes character pawns, furniture tokens, clue cards, a die, and a secret envelope for carrying the definitive answer to the mystery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Play Clue Junior Board Game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To set up the game, mix the yellow bases and place one face down in the center of the board. Put a furniture token on each remaining yellow base. Shuffle the face-down white bases and place one of them face-down <a href=\"https:\/\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/risk-europe-rules-instructions\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"2020\">in the center of the board.<\/a> Mix the other white bases and place a character pawn in each one. Place all the characters in their own spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"2167\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/clue-junior-rules-instructions\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids.jpeg?fit=1200%2C800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"how-to-play-clue-junior-kids\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids.jpeg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"How to Play Clue Junior Board Game\" class=\"wp-image-2167\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids.jpeg?resize=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/how-to-play-clue-junior-kids.jpeg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Taking Turns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The youngest player takes the lead, and the remaining players alternate to determine who took a piece of cake, when they took it, and what they consumed with the piece of cake. When its players turn, <a href=\"https:\/\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/trouble-rules-instructions\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"2011\">roll the die and move<\/a> the number of spaces showing along the path, following the arrows. Wherever players decide to roll a yellow, secretly pick under any furniture token. If you roll a white card, you can look next to the character&nbsp;for a clue. When players roll yellow, they look for clues around any yellow pawns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gameplay Steps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As players move around the board, they participate in sleuthing activities along the way. Players use the die to move characters, look under characters, or look under furniture for clues. As they find clues, they eliminate choices and eventually discover what happened. For example, players might have to discover who ate the cake, what time the cake was eaten, and what drink was served with the cake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eliminating Choices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As players find clues, they can eliminate choices. The game features classic Clue characters such as Miss Scarlett, Mrs. Peacock, and Col. Clue. Players aim to solve the mystery of the missing cake to win the Clue Junior game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Winning the Game<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To win the game, players need to guess the correct clues. The secret envelope holds the solution to the mystery. When a player correctly guesses the three cards hidden in the secret envelope,<a href=\"https:\/\/miexto.com\/boardgames\/the-rules-for-cluedo-clue-rules-instructions\/\"> they win the game<\/a>. However, if they guess wrong, they are out of the game. The other players keep playing until one of them solves the mystery or until one player remains in the game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clue Junior is a board game for kids ages 5 and up, where players use dice to control characters, look under characters, or search through furniture for clues.
