Clue cards are handed out one by one at a murder mystery party or a detective game. This pack shows a sheet of six numbered clues, an evidence card with a torn letter and a key, and a blank clue card with ruled lines. Each comes as a noir case-file look, a manila file or a parlour style. Type a setting, such as a train or a pirate ship, and the cards keep their numbers.

  • clues for a murder mystery dinner
  • a detective game for a family evening
  • a blank clue for a plot you write
  • an evidence card for an item found in the game

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
