abandoned amusement park. Uncover the mystery at the amusement park!
Join the ClueFinders as they venture into a haunted carnival on a mystery-solving quest.
But watch out; you’ll need all the nerve, wits, and problem-solving smarts you can
muster to crack this creepy case!
The engaging ClueFinders are hot on the trail of yet another mystery, this time in an
abandoned amusement park. Apparently, someone's been tinkering around with the robots that
were the theme of the park, and it's up to the ClueFinders to discover why. While
searching the park, Joni and Owen will play 4 main critical thinking games that focus on
patterns, visual analogies, written clues, etc., to earn keys to help advance the game.
When players earn 4 complete keys, they will use them to power up the park, then go back
to earn 4 more to enter the Haunted House Maze and rescue Leslie and Santiago, who are
trapped. Then it's off to the final 2 challenges!
Features:
- 9 critical thinking activities (includes a short puzzle in beginning)
- Activities can be played in adventure mode, or in practice mode
