Kids help Mary-Kate and Ashley solve five mysteries in this 12-level Game Boy Color game. As they search for clues, children help the twins dodge enemies and obstacles that stand in their way. Features include the actors' real voices, bonus levels and surprises like creepy spiders and gooey ghost slime. Our testers were initially enthusiastic about this title, but found it too difficult to play. We think it's best saved for experienced Game Boy fans; older than the intended age range.

Product Description
Mary-Kate, Ashley, and their dog Clue are on the case in MARY-KATE & ASHLEY: Get a Clue! You take control of the adorable twins and their dog as they try to collect clues to solve five different mysteries. Each character has a special ability: Mary-Kate can bounce on her head and spring to high places, Ashley can flip switches or pick up Clue to use as a weapon, and Clue can travel through tight spaces and carry the girls on his head. In each of the 50 levels, the girls must collect puzzles pieces, which requires using all of the characters' special abilities. Should any one character die while trying to solve a stage, the stage has to be repeated from the beginning. Help the Olsen twins solve the cases with MARY-KATE & ASHLEY: Get a Clue!
