Malkovich reflections

[fwiffo]

This last Christmas break my brother, his wife and I were digging through the old board-game closet and pulled out Clue. The last time any of us had played it, we were pretty young and just used brute-force process of elimination. As adults we discovered the meta-gaming aspect and it became a much more interesting game.

We came up with complicated systems for keeping track of all the half-truths and partial information we got from other players guesses. We'd spend turns to move players to an inconvenient part of the board to keep them away from a room they were trying to eliminate. Different kinds of misdirection earned names like "The Total Bastard", "Col. Mustard's Gambit" or "The Scarlet Defense".
