Scooby-Doo Mystery was released rather late in the 16-bit era. While I am focusing on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis version today, there is also a SNES version. Despite sharing the same name, each game offers a rather different experience and the majority of people much prefer what the Sega version is offering. I loved Scooby-Doo as a kid and still do now and this was a pretty fun game.

The game was released for PC (Windows). Scooby Doo and friends were invited to the opening of the new Criminology Museum Coolsville. As always, as soon as Scooby Doo, Fred Jones, Daphne Blake, Velma Dinkley and Shaggy Rogers appear on the spot - the spirit of the pterodattyla escapes from the museum along with the costumes of other monsters.

Two For One

One of the things that makes the game stand out is that you are kind of getting two for one. Rather than having one large story, you have two “episodes” that you can play through. In Blake’s Hotel, you are trying to help Daphne’s uncle who owns a hotel and all his patrons are being scared away by a native American ghost!The other Scooby-Doo Mystery that you need to solve is called, Ha, Ha Carnival; and as the name suggests you are in an amusement park that is being wrecked by an evil clown. Both stories capture the spirit of the show very, very well.

Oh, Gee Scoob!

As I said, this is a very faithful adaptation of the show. This rings most true for Scooby-Doo and Shaggy. They have captured their personalities very, very well and no matter what you do they will have some kind of little quip that will make you smile. The rest of the Mystery Gang is here and you can talk to them, but they do not have that same kind of magic, Shaggy and Scoob do.

It is a great looking game. They have some fantastic background art here and Scooby-Doo Mystery was clearly made by people that had a lot of love for the show. It looks as close to the real thing as the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis was capable of doing.

If It Wasn’t For Those Darn Kids!

The two different mysteries that you need to solve offer the same kind of gameplay. While the SNES version is more of a platformer. For this game, you have a point and click adventure game! There were not many games of this type on the 16-bit consoles and seeing them do it here is pretty awesome stuff. This kind of gameplay fits Scooby-Doo perfectly.

You can interact with pretty much everything on any given screen. Much of the gameplay is about talking to people and solving puzzles by finding one item and using it on something else. It is typical point and click adventure stuff. The problem is, this is one of those “what the hell am I supposed to do?” kind of games. There is very little direction here and it can get frustrating as you very often have no clue what to do. It is workable, but there is a great deal of trial and error on offer here.

I know some might see a 16-bit cartoon-based game and just assume it is another platformer. With that in mind, you have to give them credit for making Scooby-Doo Mystery a point and click adventure game instead. This fits Scooby doo perfectly and for a console, I feel that they did a good job. I just wish there was a bit more direction or a hint system letting you know what you need to do. If there was one of these, I probably would have scored the game a tad higher.

Final Score

• It captures the spirit of the show very well
• The graphics are fantastic
• Shaggy and Scoob have a ton of personality
