Need to include Camelot
[edit]George Parker designed Camelot, which was one of Parker Bros. early "hits". It's still played (its roster of devotees over the years is impressive) and should be included and attributed.

Cluedo
[edit]Since Parker Brothers licensed Cluedo from Waddingtons, and then sold it in the U.S. under the name Clue, rather than the other way around, how could the game possibly have been based on George S. Parker's own mansion? Unless, of course, I am mistaken in my memory, or my source was wrong. Quadibloc (talk) 08:49, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have checked, and the Wikipedia article on Cluedo confirms that the game originated in Britain, although Parker Brothers licensed it early enough so that their version was released simultaneously with the original from Waddingtons. Quadibloc (talk) 08:53, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
