Average customer review:Product Description
Jinkies! Join up with the entire gang of meddling kids (Shaggy, Scooby, Fred, Daphne, and Velma) as you try to crack three separate mysteries each based on classic episodes of the beloved cartoon program. Taking the TV episodes "What a Night for a Knight," "That's Snow Ghost," and "A Tiki Scare is No Fair," the game runs the three stories together with a unifying plotline. You play as Shaggy, trudging through haunted forests, creepy basements, and abandoned buildings with your trusty pal, Scoob. Rather than having a "death" meter, as in most games of its kind, SCOOBY-DOO: Classic Creep Capers has a courage meter Scoob and Shag flee the scene if they get too scared. There are plenty of clues hidden throughout the game's expansive levels, but if you're not careful the bad guys might get to you before you can solve the mysteries. While the game certainly offers something for nostalgic fans of the series, it's a hilarious, original take that will keep gamers challenged as well.

Amazon.com Product Description
Scooby-Doo, where are you? He's in your Game Boy Color, of course--along with Shaggy, Fred, Daphne, and Velma. Scooby-Doo! Classic Creep Capers is based on three classic episodes of the Hanna-Barbera cartoon show, and there is one all-new mystery to solve. Along the way, you'll encounter the Black Knight, Snow Ghost, and Witch Doctor from "What a Night for a Knight," "That's Snow Ghost," and "A Tiki Scare Is No Fair," respectively. Have no fear; there will be Scooby Snacks to help you along the way. The nonviolent gameplay is set in environments that are reminiscent of the popular TV show, from which the game uses the actual voices.

Amazon Product Description is Wrong.
If you have read the Amazon Production Description above, let me tell you that it is completely wrong. You do not encounter the Black Night Ghost or any of the others. It's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" case that Scooby and the Gang are working on.
And I agree with the other reviewers. If you can not read, this is not a very good game. Basic reading ability is required to fully enjoy this game. Also, this game does not work with the Nintendo D.S. system, which made my daughter very dissapointed. So, we had to go out and buy her a Nintendo S.P., which made her happy again.
So, if you like Scooby Doo and are under the age of twelve, this is a very good game for you to have!
Very unique Gameboy title!
Wow, what a refreshing Gameboy title. This is unlike anything out there. I wish there were even more games like this one. To sum it all up, you're in control of the "gang" and you're out to solve a mystery. The mystery of the missing jewels to be precise. Each character is off exploring a different part of the mansion and you can switch characters at any point during the game. So you can control Freddy, Daphne, Velma or Scooby + Shag. As you explore the mansion you'll acquire useful items and clues to help you in your quest to solve the mystery. Theres a fair amount of humor in the game and some clever thinking will help you make use of the items you find. This is not your typical run, jump and shoot game, this is a true old-school adventure game with a great little plot. Its really nice to see something like this available for the Gameboy, I think older audiences will really appreciate it. The graphics and sound and great too considering this is a Gameboy game. Scooby fans and Adventure fans will most certainly want to check this title out! Scooby-Dooby-Doo!
frustrating for little kids
My son wanted this because he is a big Scooby Doo fan, however, he was very disappointed with the game. The problem is that you have to be able to read and understand the clues given in order to play the game. He just started kindergarten and can not read yet. This may be a great game - I'm not sure. But if your child can not read then I would not recommend this game.
