What is ClueJutsu?
ClueJutsu is a fast-paced anime party game where you get your team to guess the answer without saying any of the five Forbidden Words on the card. It is easy to learn, chaotic to play, and built for loud reactions, creative clues, and last-second saves.
How many players?
ClueJutsu is best with 4 to 12+ players divided into teams. It works well for game nights, anime clubs, conventions, and parties.
Do I have to be a hardcore anime fan?
No. Easy cards are built around broadly recognizable anime characters, powers, items, groups, and concepts. Medium and Hard give more experienced fans a chance to take bigger risks for more points. Mixed-skill groups are exactly what ClueJutsu is designed for.
Can we use gestures?
Yes. Gestures, facial expressions, and general physical acting are encouraged. You cannot spell the answer, point to a direct visual clue, mouth the answer, or perform an exact signature gesture that gives it away instantly.
What's included?
200 gameplay cards, a 60-second sand timer, a premium two-piece box, and a full rule guide.
When will preorders ship?
Preorders are part of the first production run, with an estimated fulfillment window of October–November 2026. Customers will receive updates as manufacturing and fulfillment progress.
What is the Founding 50?
The Founding 50 are the first 50 U.S. preorders. They ship free and become part of ClueJutsu's Founding Wall as the game's earliest supporters.
Is ClueJutsu officially affiliated with anime studios?
No. ClueJutsu is an independent anime-inspired party game and is not officially affiliated with or endorsed by any anime studio, publisher, or franchise owner.
