The Mystery Machine runs out of petrol in the middle of nowhere but wait, what's that in the distance? Why its a creepy old house! I wonder whether they know where the nearest garage is? Let's go and find out...

You play the part of the five main characters as they split up and enter the house on the trail of a jewel thief. You can swap between the characters (with Scooby and Shaggy coming as an inseparable pair). Along the way you must pick up items that seem pointless at the time but will come in useful later on (what would you usually do with a sausage?)

Classic Creep Capers has a wonderful retro feel about it. If you are a 30-something you will be swamped by nostalgia, and if you are 8-14 you will be impressed by the gameplay.

The only real drawback (and it is quite a major one) is that the game is too simple to complete and at £25 I felt a little cheated. Having said that this game is designed for little 'uns in mind and I think you'll find it will keep them amused for hours.
