CLUE 24th Edition
Carlsbad, CA (Vocus) April 16, 2009
CLUE®: 24™ Edition gives fans of the FOX hit television series the chance to solve a harrowing mystery and prevent a catastrophic attack on the U.S., set to occur in a mere 24 hours. The attack will be initiated from inside the Los Angeles CTU (Counter Terrorist Unit) field office. The CTU is ordered to lock down and nobody can go in or out. Six agents are left inside at the time of the lock down. One is the Mole/Infiltrator. It is up to the CTU agents inside to reveal "who" the Mole is; "what" kind of dangerous attack is planned and "where" inside CTU it will happen.
Made by USAOPOLY under license from Hasbro® and Twentieth Century Fox Licensing & Merchandising this Collector's Edition transforms the traditional CLUE game board into a blueprint of the CTU building. Jack Bauer (Director of Field Operations) has been locked out and must provide Intel to the six agents inside via his PDA. Traditional clue suspects such as Green, Plum and Mustard are now represented by CTU agents: Tony Almeida, Special Agent in Charge, Chloe O'Brian, Senior Analyst, Intelligence Agent and Bill Buchanan, Associate Special Agent in Charge. It won't be the first time a mole has infiltrated CTU but it might be the last…unless the mystery is solved within 24 hours. In order to track the time, CLUE®: 24™ Edition includes 8 clock cards each representing 3 hours of time (for a total of 24 hours). If the 8th card is drawn, the Mole's attack is successful and the Agents of CTU have failed - game over.
CLUE®: 24™ Edition is appropriate for ages 9 and older and is available at specialty retailers nationwide including Barnes & Noble, Borders, JC Penney, Go the Game Store and Amazon.com. Visit http://www.unlockctu.com for interactive game exploration!
