Product Description
Amazon.ca Product Description
A mysterious glowing bug man--zoinks!--has been spotted at the Museum of Natural History. Join Scooby-Doo, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne, and Fred as they hunt for clues and solve a mystery. Zero in on suspects in six different areas of the museum, all in puzzling disarray. Along the way help the Mystery, Inc., gang fix the exhibits. Collect enough clues and use the museum's personnel files to get to the bottom of this buggy mystery.
In the case of The Glowing Bug Man, kids join Scooby and the gang in collecting clues and solving puzzles that will crack this pesky case. The game's eight sleuthing activities and three difficulty levels move the mystery from spooky to spookier to spooktacular. Kids build critical-thinking, problem-solving, deductive reasoning, and logic skills, while the software provides help whenever a child needs it. Plus, printable and music activities let kids extend the fun beyond the computer for an extra Scooby snack.

This review is from: Scooby-Doo Case File #1: The Glowing Bug Man (CD-ROM)
My 4 year old (and I) enjoyed this game. Three levels of play. Lots of mind-tickling puzzles to work on. We enjoyed going back to this a few times at different levels. Good for a rainy day, then put it aside for a month or so and bring it out again. Doesn't work on Windows 7 but fine on XP. Wish there were more PC games around!

This review is from: Scooby-Doo Case File #1: The Glowing Bug Man (CD-ROM)
I would rate this a middle of the road four or at the very least a high three. First the positive- the scooby gang are in a museum and a green glowing bug man has messed up the displays. They have to put the displays back together in order to earn clues. The clues point to a villian. Each of the 'games' or displays involves a different part of the brain- in one scooby has to jump on a conveyer belt to earn scooby snacks and collect bones, another is a puzzle, another is a matching game and so on. There are three different levels so you can have it fairly easy to fairly difficult. My five year old was able to play the easy with no help and the medium level with only a little bit of help. The Negatives- The games are the same. The villians change but the games are the same- you are always doing a puzzle in the dinosaur room and it's always the same puzzle. The placement of the boxes in the puzzle might change but the idea is the same. I would have also liked to have seen the ability to change the levels of the puzzle as individual games, not the whole game. However, it's a fun game. Enjoy.

This review is from: Scooby-Doo Case File #1: The Glowing Bug Man (CD-ROM)
If any of you have expierienced past Scooby Doo games of this style, then you will understand this. In comparison, the voice acting in this is sub-par. The vocal animations are so generic that every word they speak looks just like the last. The load times between screens is a lot longer in this one than in past games. However, the puzzles are clever, and the background animations and layouts are very colorful and creative. Dropping you in many foreign locales. A good representation, and learning tool, of different cultures. My 5 year old enjoys this. But, myself, as a Scooby Doo fan, did not think that much of it. It was a bit shorter than previous games as well. Good game. Just not great. Hope the next volume shows more promise.
