80Fans of the cartoons will be happy to know that the game contains everything from the originals, including voices and bad jokes.
-
75There's much less action or platforming and it's all about solving the puzzles on your own time.
-
For Scooby Doo fans, this is the best made game based on the license by a long shot. Though the gameplay itself is relatively simple and boring at times, the interesting storyline and episode-like game progression is pure bliss for Scooby fanatics.
-
From the cheesy plot and dialogue, to the levels that are set out as individual episodes of the show, even the constant snacking - it's all in there.
-
A cheap and cheerful outing that'll please kids but it's doubtful anyone over Nickelodeon age will have the motivation to see it through to the conclusion.
-
65My enjoyment quickly turned into boredom as I restarted at a certain save point over and over again, due to my "scare" power meter running out every time a ghost ran over me after escaping from my attempted Tome catching.
-
An excellent game for little kids but wont provide much excitement for others. The gameplay is very simplified, and the action gets repetitive quickly.
-
60It represents the cartoon remarkably well and with excellent authenticity. However, behind all the gloss and polish lurks the shadow of a game that shows little novelty in today's already swamped third person action adventure market.
-
Fans of the cartoon will probably enjoy this short romp with Mystery Inc. as will young children. Cynical adults and those with a distinct aversion to laugh tracks should stay far away.
-
56Parents whose kids have Scooby-Doo hot on the brain from the movie can safely rent this one, or not, without worry of missing much.
-
55The authenticity lends a certain charm to the title that almost makes you want to play it, but then you realize how unexciting the actual game is. Fetch quests have never been a successful way to captivate audiences.
-
50Scooby Doo: Mystery Mayhem might be enjoyable for a young audience who expects little as far as challenge. I would expect however that even they would lose interest quickly.
-
So boring that you only have to play it for a couple minutes to figure out that you have already played the whole extent of the game.
-
Control is touchy and moves are limited, but the game has great atmosphere. [May 2004, p.121]
-
During my playtime, my emotions always registered somewhere between mildly annoyed and just plain bored. [May 2004, p.94]
-
40The game gets points for presentation but falls short when it comes to gameplay.
-
25But unless your mommy tucks you into your Scooby-Doo bed sheets at night, you probably wont be entirely satisfied.
