Mystery Solved with Disney’s New Whodunit Game

Saturday, February 27th, 2010 at 10:45 am

“Whodunit” board games such as Clue have garnered so much popularity among people of all ages and it’s not really hard to see why. People simply love the adrenaline that comes with figuring out the how the pieces of the mystery puzzle fit together and, at last, uncovering who the villain is. The problem with traditional whodunit board games is the amount of time and effort required to set up the board game and to clean it all up afterwards. You’ve probably experienced being the unfortunate soul left alone by your other co-players to clean up and put away the board game set.

What if you can still play at being a mystery sleuth without all the clean-up required? This is precisely the opportunity that Disney seeks to give you with the all-new interactive Guilty Party. The game is developed by the same company who brought you popular mini-games such as Hail to the Chimp and Studds the Zombie. The game requires four players, making it an appropriate game for friends and family who are looking to unwind.

The plot of the game revolves around the detectives who work for the Dickens Detective Agency. This elite group of sleuths is made up of interesting characters for you to choose from—a kung-fu expert granny, a roguish street detective and such. The whole team is led by The Commodore, who is on a constant campaign to stop the crimes of his arch nemesis Mr. Valentine.

The game will be available later this year.
