Description Description
The Mystery of the Abbey is a Cluedo-style game of deduction. A monk has been murdered in a French medieval abbey, and players must move around the abbey, collecting clues and interrogating each other to discover the culprit.

The monks belong to three different orders and can be fat or thin, bald or hooded, bearded or shaved. One monk card is hidden, while the others are distributed among the players. During their turn, players may move a maximum of two spaces and then ask one of the other monks in the same room a question (e.g. ‘How many fat monks do you have?’). Players can choose to take a vow of silence or answer honestly, after which they in turn have the right to ask the accuser a question.

Mass takes place every four turns: all players return to the shrine, an event card is drawn and an increasing number of cards are exchanged with the neighbour to their left. Some rooms have special effects or unique actions: for example, in the Cell a player can take a card from a neighbour, while in the Cryptorum he can pick up a card to get an extra turn later.

Unlike in Cluedo, making a correct Accusation does not automatically guarantee victory. If the culprit is identified, 4 points are gained, but it is also possible to gain 2 points for each correct Declaration of a single characteristic. However, declarations and accusations that are incorrect result in point loss. This means that a player could correctly identify the culprit but still lose the game.

Unique Event cards add elements of unpredictability to each game, and the game naturally lends itself to the creation of custom rules to limit questions.

My favorite owned game!! If you enjoy Clue or any other deduction games, you will absolutely love this!!! It takes the deduction aspects of Clue, adds much more strategy (in the form of cards with special powers) and combines it into an amazing package. And the board and components are top notch, also (color evidence pads!). Now you know why I love this game, manowarplayer!

Una validissima alternativa a Cluedo...Ambientazione bellissima tra le mura del monastero e meccanica di gioco complessa ma efficace...Le carte evento movimentano molto le partite...Scoprire l'assassino non è facile ma alla fine del gioco è appagantissimo...

This game has a great theme and is really fun when the players get into it. I want to make cloth hoods in the colors of the game pieces to add to the experience! One of the best things I can say about it is that when somebody correctly identifies the culprit, almost everyone else at the table was right on the verge of guessing it as well. Nobody ever feels like they were completely out of the game.

Great game, and the best deduction game with theme around (there probably arent that many, but I doubt that this one can get topped). Put on a Gregorian chant cd while playing and you are transported to "The Name of the Rose"! Days of Wonder´s future productions will be worth seeking out for the level of detail put into components alone! A favourite.

Profile only says 1 play, but I'm almost through the pad of suspect sheets. Played it again for the first time in a while and thought, "Why don't I play this more?!" Not the first time I've thought that either. Simple game that just gets better with more plays. Will never turn down a game. Cheers.
