Clue series and more, gameplay question

There are a few games linked at this site that were inspired by the board-game Clue. I've been unable to figure out precisely which of them can and which of them can't be played as one single player. From their descriptions they sound like they can't, although some mention 1-6 players as a possibility. I'm not sure that it's not a mistake, though, and they're large

So I thought maybe uploader or somebody else who played them knows which can be played as one player, without friends, for sure?

Here are the titles:

Clue (1996)
Clue Chronicles: Fatal Illusion (2000)
Clue Jr.: SpyGlass Mysteries (1999)
Clue: Master Detective (1989)
Clue: Murder At Boddy Mansion (1998)
Foul Play: Mystery at Awkward Manor (1995) (the links are down)

Clue Chronicles is a point and click adventure game, single player ofcourse

Murder at Boddy Mansion is a lot like the 'regular' board game and you can choose to play as single player against the pc or in multiplayer mode

Don't know about the other ones

All can be played as singleplayer.

I tried a few files of Foul Play and they seem ok...if any are down, list which and I'll reup.

Thanx guys!

Scaryfun, indeed the link from this site works now. Last time I checked it didn't redirect me to 4shared.com at all, it didn't work, maybe some of their servers were down.

Does anybody know details about "Clue Jr.: SpyGlass Mysteries"? There is a magnifying glass that shipped with the game, so I'm not sure if it's playable without it. Maybe you won't be able to pick out some vital objects on screen.
