The smartest way to play Clue. Track every suggestion, see exactly who holds what, and let the solver crack the case while you focus on the game.
Clue Solver is an independent companion app for the classic mystery deduction board game. It replaces your paper detective notepad with a real-time deduction engine that reasons through every turn — tracking card ownership, resolving ambiguous clues, calculating envelope probabilities, and explaining exactly why each deduction was made.
WHAT IT DOES
- Records each suggestion and tracks which player showed a card (or didn't)
- Automatically deduces card ownership and envelope contents from the game's logic
- Shows live probabilities for every unknown card based on feasible solutions
- Explains its reasoning in plain language so you can verify and learn
- Detects contradictions when a turn entry doesn't fit the evidence
- Provides a traditional detective notepad grid with tap-to-mark cells
- Includes a freehand drawing layer for personal notes on top of the grid
SETUP IN UNDER A MINUTE
Choose your edition, enter player names and seat order, select your hand, and start investigating. Saved case files let you pause and resume across sessions.
BUILT FOR REAL GAMES AT REAL TABLES
This is not a digital board game. It's a tool for one player sitting at a physical table. Enter turns in seconds, glance at the Cards or Players tab for instant insight, and keep your strategy private.
EDITIONS
Supports Classic Clue and Alfred Hitchcock editions, with more editions coming soon.

I always win when I use this app to play Clue with my friends. It’s fantastic.
HORRIBLE

I give it 0 stars, but it will never show mine if I give it 0. This game is terrible. I mean I bought this game because no one else in the house plays clue so I wanted to play with computers, but no. You have to have 3-6 players to play the game? let me just say don't waste your time on a horrible game. There are better things you can spend that 99 cents on.
Definitely has potential!

I like the whole idea behind this app. I tried to use it last night with our brand-new clue game. At first, I realized that I did not have the "traditional" board game. It would be nice if the developer of this app would include empty places to fill-in for new replacement rooms on other new Clue board games. The other problem that I had was this, the app requires you to give and exact number of cards to each player. We only had five players, so, the three cards in the clue file folder left us with an odd amount of cards that did not complete the "18" cards they were looking for so that the amount would be even for every player. I hope the developers continue to work with this, because it could be the best thing ever when playing the game clue. I am upset that they charged money for this app when it's not completed or fully functional. Please do us all a favor who paid money to have an app that should work for its intended use. If the creators of this app need people to test new trial versions please sign me up.
Will Change Review to Add More Stars Upon Update

I don’t understand why this would be so outdated. I literally have the classic version, just not the original. This means characters and rooms are the same with the exception of new additions, like Dr. Orchid. You literally can’t purchase the original in stores anymore.There should be an option to add/change the rooms, weapons, and characters. I don’t understand why you can’t customize the app seeing that it simply runs algorithms to calculate who absolutely does and does not have what cards. Customization should really be an option in this app. I mean, it even saves the developers time seeing as they don’t have to update it to include new cards EVER.I already paid for the app, but I’d be willing to pay up to 5x the price I did for it to simply be customizable so that it works for any version. I left 1 star because it isn’t compatible with my game, even though I have the updated classic version (the one available in store). I will update my review pending a response that goes over plans to capitalize on this, or an update to include customization.
