About the game
The plans to Rick’s portal gun have been stolen! It’s up to Rick, Morty, Summer, Jerry, Beth and Mr. Poopybutthole to get them back. They must find out WHO stole the plans, WHERE they are hiding, and WHAT item they used to succeed in the heist. It’s an inter-dimensional mystery! It plays exactly like Clue with a few additional rules and slight changes. First off, you use two dice to get around the board because of the way the board is shaped. Second, none of the character models are possible murderers in the game, instead they have been replaced by six random characters from the series on cardboard tokens. Third, there’s an added Contraption Card pile that you can get by landing on a “?” spot. Lastly, all of the characters have a Personality Card that gives them an added ability in the game like the ability to travel to a different part of the board without rolling dice, or getting the chance to see the same card someone just revealed to someone else. Contraption cards will do things such as adding an extra six to your dice, taking an extra turn, or asking a bonus question.
