Many are still in mourning after the cancellation of the beloved TV show, but the Arrested Development Edition of Clue will revive your favorite characters briefly -- before killing them off one by one.
The sitcom-turned-board-game is made by Pleated-Jeans, and appears to capture the quirky comedic charm of the on-screen story. In the Arrested Development Edition of Clue, the Frozen Banana Stand, the Model Home and the Prison become possible locations of the murder, while the stair car and Buster's detachable hook hand become the weapons.
How will your family hold up to Bluth-scale hostility?
