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. 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).
