Heartland Mystery
My friend's daughter is in love with the TV Show/book series called Heartland. And she is also a big fan of the board game Clue. I came up with the idea of combining the two for a birthday gift for her. But in the game of Clue, somebody gets murdered, and we couldn't have that happening in the Heartland Universe! So in this game, somebody won a trophy for a horse race, but they misplace it, and you have to help find it!

Player Setup ScreenIf you're playing by yourselfIf you're playing the game by yourself, select which character you want to play as by clicking "Person" next to their picture, then, type your name. If you'd like all the other 5 players to be played by the computer, then leave their mark at "Computer". If you'd like to turn off any of the other computer player, then move their mark to "Not Playing."There is a Card Sheet that is in the game that you will use to keep track of your guesses. You can show or hide this Card Sheet at any time during the game. If you're playing with othersOn the first screen, you will see all 6 characters in the game. By default, all 6 of them will be computer players. Each person will select their player by clicking on "Person" and then typing their name in. If you'd like to turn off some of the computer characters, then click on "Not Playing" for that character.Each player will need a printed copy of the Card Sheet. The computer will tell each person what cards they have. As this happens, the computer will tell the other players to not look at the screen, so each person's cards will be kept secret. As the computer tells you which cards you have been dealt, write the word "me" on your Heartland Mystery Card Sheet next to each card. |  |
