Cluedo Cash Mystery
Now and then a game comes along that blows my socks right off – and the Cluedo Cash Mystery slot is one of those!
Back in 2018 Scientific Games bought the license from board-game kings Hasbro. They’ve already tried their hand at Monopoly Big Spins and Megaways and now it’s the turn of whodunnit classic Cluedo.
Based on the famous board game it offers 180 different Free Spin combinations, that include up to 6x multipliers, and up to 25 spins. As well as some delightful graphics touches that bring the classic game alive. Well, it competes with the likes of the El Paso Gunfire xNudge slot, doesn’t it? How does it stack up? Let’s play…
“It was Colonel Mustard, in the Ballroom with the Revolver!”
The Graphics
It’s a dark and stormy night – the lights are on inside the big house where a murder is about to happen! But who will it be? Mrs. Peacock, Dr Orchid, Colonel Mustard, Professor Plum, Reverend Green, or Miss Scarlett?
The clever design bods at SG Digital have captured the essence of Cluedo exactly. From the Art Deco playing cards on the reels to the 1920s motor vehicle parked outside an enormous country mansion – the background to the reels is superb and gives the slot oodles of atmosphere.
The top-notch HD graphics and effects also include evil laughs from our suspects, the thwack and thud of the murder weapons as they land on the reels and a very jaunty soundtrack.
It’s a 10 out of 10 for look and feel!

Cluedo Cash Mystery Slot Gameplay
Cluedo Cash Mystery slot has five reels, three rows and twenty paylines. That’s nineteen more than the Foxpot slot, but that is a jackpot game. Place your wagers from 0.20 up to 200.00 coins per spin.
The standard reel icons are as follows: the Cluedo logo, the feather brush and the whisky and smoking cigar are the most lucrative, along with the Q, K and A playing cards that will make up the lower value symbols. 17 other symbols will act as Scatters (yes, that’s right, 17) but more on these below…
The Wild icon is the blue and gold Art Deco style symbol, and it will do the usual job of substituting for all other symbols on the reels, aside from the Scatters.
The Bonuses
The Free Spins bonus is triggered by landing three scatter symbols. The scatters themselves are made up of the weapons, rooms and characters from the original game. You need one of each to set off the feature, and here is the list in full…
Room scatters will land on reel 3 only, and will determine how many spins you will receive:
– Lounge = five Free Spins
– Kitchen = eight Free Spins
– Study = ten Free Spins
– Hall = twelve Free Spins
– Conservatory = fifteen Free Spins
– Library = twenty-five Free Spins
Weapon scatters will land hit reel 1 only, and determine which multiplier will be added to your spins:
– Lead pipe = 2x multiplier
– Wrench = 3x multiplier
– Candlestick = 4x multiplier
– Knife = 5x multiplier
– Revolver = 6x multiplier
Character scatters will land on reel 5 only, and each one will come with a special modifier:
– Mrs Peacock – Scatter Retriggers
– Colonel Mustard – Expanding Wilds
– Professor Plum – Multiplier Wilds
– Mr Green – Growing Symbols
– Dr Orchid – Both Direction Pay
– Miss Scarlett – Persistent Wilds
As you can see, the number of possible combinations for the bonus is mind-blowing – 180 in total. This means players will receive a different Free Spins experience every time. Best of all, you can win up to 250,000 coins…

The Cluedo Cash Mystery slot is every bit as good as I had hoped.
Simple yet slick, the gameplay is entertaining and the pay-outs are decent, even in the base game.
Essentially this slot is all about the impressive Free Spins feature, but in my humble opinion, this is one bonus hunt you will enjoy playing with those combinations of 17 scatters making for an interesting ride.
