The board game Cluedo, also known as Clue in North America, features six main characters in its standard edition. These characters are:
- Miss Scarlett
- Colonel Mustard
- Mrs. White (updated as Chef White in recent editions)
- Reverend Green (known as Mr. Green in North America, updated as Mayor Green in 2023)
- Mrs. Peacock
- Professor Plum
These six suspects are the classic and most commonly used characters in the game
. Originally, the game had more characters planned—up to ten in the early design, including some that were later removed or renamed (e.g., Nurse White became Mrs. White, Colonel Yellow became Colonel Mustard, and others like Mr. Brown, Mr. Gold, Miss Grey, and Mrs. Silver were eliminated)
. In summary, the standard, classic Cluedo/Clue game has six characters for players to choose from.
