Scooby-Doo! First Frights is a 3D action platformer and companion game to "Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins," a live-action prequel to the original series which releases on DVD and on the Cartoon Network in Fall 2009. Filled with the same hair-raising, yet family-friendy fun that has made the Scooby-Doo! franchise iconic for decades, First Frights is a fresh take on an old favorite featuring multiple game modes, a co-op play option, and a young version of Scooby, and teenage representations of all your other favorite Mystery, Inc. characters. Story In Scooby-Doo! First Frights players witness the roots of Mystery Inc. as the gang unites for the first time to solves some of its first mysteries. The story picks up right where the DVD/Cartoon Network leaves off as Scooby, Shaggy and the rest of the super-cool teen Mystery, Inc. gang explore spooky environments, solve puzzles, combat enemies and collect clues to unmask devious villains and gain prestige as world famous sleuths. With ghosts and ghouls around every corner, high school has never sounded so fun. Explore the beginnings of Mystery, Inc.. View larger. Gameplay An action platformer spread over 22 levels, Scooby-Doo! First Frights challenges the player to utilize the unique strengths, abilities, weapons, and other items of each member of Mystery, Inc. through a series of adventures and puzzle-solving scenarios. The game features game modes such as Storyline and Freeplay, as well as single player and drop in/out two-person co-op play options. The co-op option is an important feature due to each character's unique skill set which can be utilized better depending on who they are paired with. In addition, this functionality allows more experienced players, like parents or an older child, to share the adventure with younger or less experienced players, with each taking the lead as they wish. Along with these features the game also contains additional features such as charged attacks, voice talent from the "Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins" release, and character powerups that are sure to please both kids and their parents alike. Key Game Features Extend the movie experience as you take Mystery, Inc., through its first cases and view clips from the film. Four all-new mysteries spread over 22 levels.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Game for Scooby Fans!, September 27, 2009

This review is from: Scooby Doo! First Frights (Video Game)

An outstanding game for your Scooby fan. My kids are huge fans of Scooby Doo and we've played every video game we could find on PS2, PSP, DS, and PC. First Frights is one of the best!

It has 4 Episodes/Mysteries. The graphics are just fine-nothing too outstanding but very good for the PS2 (crisp, clear, with good color). The controls are superb without any glitches or freezes and the voice acting does the job. My son is on his second playthrough. The game is not very difficult but he did have to battle some of the bosses more than once. It took him about 12 hours to get through the entire game. This is the perfect length for a 9 year old.

In comparison with some of the other SD games for the PS2 this is probably the easiest we've encountered. It is not like the Dora the Explorer or Diego games (those are ultra easy) and it has some challenge but it is nothing like some of the other SD games that are actually quite difficult in places. My kids also liked the PS2 version of Mystery Mayhem. They were less fond of the other Scooby games for the PS1 and PS2.

If you have a young Scooby fan (I would recommend the ideal ages to be about 7-12) I cannot recommend this title highly enough. I would consider it a must buy and a really great value for your money.

My son loves Scooby Doo so I got him this game. He really liked it a lot. He finished the game pretty quickly however (much more quickly than most other games). I asked him how he liked it, and he said it was great. He said that he wants to play it again.

This review is from: Scooby Doo! First Frights (Video Game)

I rented this game for my 7 year old son. It did not take him long to figure out the controls. The game has 4 Episode Games with 4 Levels within each Episode Game. The Gang has to collect scooby snacks, clues, break things to find more scooby snacks and clues, fight ghosts, witches and villains and at the end solve the mystery. The graphics are nice. The game is fun to play, but might lack the challenge some more complicated games offer. My son played through 3 Episode Games in one evening and finished the next day. He liked the game so much he started over again. I think we will put this game on Santa's list.
