Platform: Game Boy Color

Amazon.com Product Description

Scooby-Doo, where are you? He's in your Game Boy Color, of course--along with Shaggy, Fred, Daphne, and Velma. Scooby-Doo! Classic Creep Capers is based on three classic episodes of the Hanna-Barbera cartoon show, and there is one all-new mystery to solve. Along the way, you'll encounter the Black Knight, Snow Ghost, and Witch Doctor from "What a Night for a Knight," "That's Snow Ghost," and "A Tiki Scare Is No Fair," respectively. Have no fear; there will be Scooby Snacks to help you along the way. The nonviolent gameplay is set in environments that are reminiscent of the popular TV show, from which the game uses the actual voices.

Product Description

Jinkies! Join up with the entire gang of meddling kids (Shaggy, Scooby, Fred, Daphne, and Velma) as you try to crack three separate mysteries each based on classic episodes of the beloved cartoon program. Taking the TV episodes "What a Night for a Knight," "That's Snow Ghost," and "A Tiki Scare is No Fair," the game runs the three stories together with a unifying plotline. You play as Shaggy, trudging through haunted forests, creepy basements, and abandoned buildings with your trusty pal, Scoob. Rather than having a "death" meter, as in most games of its kind, SCOOBY-DOO: Classic Creep Capers has a courage meter Scoob and Shag flee the scene if they get too scared. There are plenty of clues hidden throughout the game's expansive levels, but if you're not careful the bad guys might get to you before you can solve the mysteries. While the game certainly offers something for nostalgic fans of the series, it's a hilarious, original take that will keep gamers challenged as well.

This review is from: Scooby-Doo: Classic Creep Capers (Game Cartridge)

Ever since I was 6 years old, I loved watching Scooby Doo on TV. And now am 10 and I still enjoy it. So when I heard about the game, I bought it immediately. It was great! It was fun searching though 6 levels for clues and stuff. I like the game because its unique. Its a combination of adventure and mystery. You play as Fred, Daphne, Velma and my favorites Shaggy and Scoody. But enough. Am going to give you my personal opinion on Classic Creep Capers' graphics etc.

Graphics: 8.0 {great} Nice and Solid!

Sound: 7.0 {good} No voices but great soundtrack from the show.

Frustration: 1.0 {great} Not frustrating at all!

Controls: 7.5 {good} Nice and basic.

Overall: 9.0 {wonderful} What is there to say?

If your a Scooby Doo fan at the age of 7 or older, or just looking for something differant I recomend Classic Creep Capers. As Scooby would say, Scooby Dooby Doo!

This review is from: Scooby-Doo: Classic Creep Capers (Game Cartridge)

What a blast-it is so nice to see some refreshing gameplay for the Gameboy. "Scooby Doo Classic Creep Capers' is very similar to the old classic "Maniac Mansion"-which was the best NES game ever. Anyway one you select your character, you snoop your way around an old mansion in search of a ghost/thief.The graphics are really super and the animation is top notch. You can see the tiny lips of the characters move-a cute little thing. The gameplay is very similar to "Maniac Mansion"-you walk around picking up object to use in a certain situation. The game really may appeal to younger kids, but it may be too confusing for them. The art of sleuthing is too complex and may leave some kids popping in the next Pokemon. Older kids and adults will find this a good title.Although it does have many similarities to the fore mentioned "Maniac Mansion" it lacks the depth of that game. You are, for the most, part allowed to roam the house uninterrupted, which seems a little anti-climatic. Also a big downfall is that the game itself is way too short. It may take a good gamer only a few hours(I am taking one of two) to beat it. That makes the gameplay feel incomplete and rushed.In the end "Scooby Doo..." is a welcomed addition of the Gameboy aresenal. The characters are cute and the story is very Scooby-ish-give it a try and find out for yourself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Role Playing Game, February 26, 2001

This review is from: Scooby-Doo: Classic Creep Capers (Game Cartridge)

I definitely DISAGREE with the other reviews that state this game is for the younger crowd. I would say this is more for the 7 and OLDER crowd. Theres lots of reading and skills of observation and problem solving are required. This game takes patience, it does not provide instant gratification. The first couple chapters seem straight forward enough but the game definitely increases in difficulty as the game progresses. Great graphics too! Overall, Scooby fans and role playing fans should be pleased.
