Last year, geeky retailer ThinkGeek rolled out its annual roundup of April Fools' fake products, including a super-size version of the classic mystery board game Clue done up "Game of Thrones"-style.

ThinkGeek has since taken down its faux product page and removed its video parody, but that's OK. USAopoly, the same company that brings us themed versions of Monopoly, now offers a real "Game of Thrones" Clue.

The ThinkGeek version included a massive board with 48 weapons and 48 player pieces featuring all the popular characters from the hit HBO show and then some. The real version of the game is much more in line with a traditional Clue arrangement.

The 12 suspects for Clue are Cersei, Jaime, Tyrion, Sansa, Petyr Baelish, Margaery Tyrell, Daenerys, Hizdahr zo Loraq, Missandei, Daario Naharis, Jorah Mormont and Grey Worm. It's too bad whiny boy king Joffrey isn't included. We're also pretty short on members of the Stark family.
