Scooby-Doo Mystery

The Good
Scooby-Doo Mystery is a fun, point n' click, graphic adventure game that does a good job of capturing the look and feel of the cartoon series. The LucasArts-inspired interface is easy to use, although it would have been nice to have been able to use a mouse.

The Bad
The puzzles in the game are, with few exceptions, too easy, and the game is too short because their are only two different mysteries to solve. On the flip side, the passwords, needed to save your progress, are too long. Most of these faults could have been fixed had Sunsoft tweaked the game a bit more before its release. Heck, had this game been made on a CD, instead of a video cartridge, it could have had several more mysteries to solve and more participation from the original cast.

The Bottom Line
A point n' click, graphic adventure game is the perfect format for the animated, Scooby-Doo gang. The graphics, music, sound effects and mysteries all show proper respect to the franchise. Adventure game veterans will be familiar with the game's interface, but will probably finish the game wanting more. Here's hoping that the Scooby Do gang find themselves on another, longer and more developed, graphic adventure game in the near future!
