The Clue! (known as Der Clou! in German-speaking regions) is a 1994 adventure game inspired by the 1986 game They Stole a Million. The player is tasked with finding accomplices, scouting potential targets, and plotting a burglary. The game uses a point-and-click interface. A sequel followed in 2001: The Sting! (or Der Clou 2!.)
In 2000 the source code was released to the public.[2][3] The game was since then ported to modern platforms (Windows, Linux and Web) via SDL and receives still updates by the game's community (2015).[4][5]
