I Spy Spooky Mansion is a multiplayer game (up to 4 players), so everybody in the family can help solve the riddles, play the mini games, & escape the mansion. I managed to find a couple puzzle pieces in the 30 minutes or so that I played. The only way out is to collect all the puzzle pieces by solving all 33 riddles. A little skeleton invites you into a spooky mansion, then *locks* the door once you’re in. Now, because The Princess is terrified of skeletons on a TV screen, it was up to me to test out I Spy Spooky Mansion.

So finding a few objects pretty quickly is like, “Yay! Look Mom, I’m really good at this game!” Most of the objects in the riddles do take a little searching you’re not going to finish this game in one setting. I like that because her frustration level is set at really low. The princess found a few in each riddle right off the bat. The really great thing about this game is that a few of the objects are fairly easily found. The Princess got to race fish, put objects in order, finish a picture puzzle ~ things like that. AND when you find some of the hidden objects, there are mini puzzles. But unlike the books, the pictures are 3D & you can navigate around the scene using your Wii controller. It’s rather like the books ~ there’s a riddle of things you need to locate in the picture. There are 2 really cool games included in the game pack, Ultimate I Spy & I Spy Spooky Mansion. So of course we had to try the I Spy Game Pack for Nintendo Wii. Book fairs, library sales, fundraisers, if there’s an I Spy book we don’t have yet, we buy it. Our family has always loved Scholastic’s I Spy Books. Please welcome again my sister, who shares how much fun she and her daughter have been having with this new Wii Game by Scholastics! ~Henrietta
