Scooby-Doo Showdown in Ghost Town
This is the second of the two Scooby-Doo Mystery Adventures to come out his
year. It follows the same pattern, same game engine - but that's not bad. I mean, how
many of us have played Monopoly hundreds of times? Well, maybe not hundreds,
but you know what I mean.
It's the familiar cast of characters.
Velma is the stealth group leader. You will recognize
her as the girl with baggy sweater, eyeglasses,
sensible shoes and all the smart suggestions.
Shaggy and Scooby are the scaredy-cats, and Fred and Daphne, the pretties,
round out the group.
The action takes place in an old broken down, spooky frontier town.
Just like the other
mysteries, there are lots of places to explore and clues to find before you
can solve the puzzle.
As always there are amusing names and situations.
For example, there is the pie
fight at 12 O'clock high and an old codger is named Gummy Bayer.
Even the grown-ups won't mind getting involved.
