Overview
When Scooby, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne, and Fred arrive in China for a vacation, the mysterious appearance of a stone dragon kicks their sleuthing senses into high gear. As they explore the Emperor’s Underground Palace and surrounding areas, they meet five suspects and encounter six logic games.
Embedded Logic Games
By playing the logic games, kids earn clues to solve the mystery. In one such game, children help Scooby aim his slingshot at a brick wall so as to rotate certain bricks to create an order where the color or shape of a brick matches its neighboring brick.
Crack the Case!
Youngsters crack this case with the help of a Casebook—a grid that allows kids to determine what they know as they sort out which clues incriminate which suspects.
Game Analysis
This exciting mystery can be played on three levels of difficulty, and the culprit changes each time you play; so it offers lots of replayability. The program also provides two mini-activities, plenty of printables, and clickables that reveal information about Chinese history and customs.
Typical Scooby-Doo humor reverberates throughout the game, so expect to hear plenty of giggling.
