In addition to revising the rules of gameplay, many of the spin-off games also introduce new characters, locations, weapons, and/or alternative objectives. Cluedo Mysteries (2005), [ citation needed] released in the US as Clue Mysteries (2006) This is another change of rules, and this time the gameplay is based heavily on another board game called "Mysteries of Old Peking".
