 Regurgetated Graphics from old "I Spy" Games.Sep 07, 2006
By A Gamer
All the screens in this "I spy" game are taken from "I Spy - Spooky Mansion", "I Spy - Treasure Hunt", and "I Spy - Fantasy". There are thirteen file folders on the main menu screen which represent thirteen 'mystery cases' containting anywhere from 3 to 6 screens each that you may choose at random. There are no original graphics in this one, so if you have these previous versions, which are all excellent, then this one may be a bit of a let down. However, If you are like me and loved all the other I Spy games and want a little more, then this will deliver.

 Disappointing for Avid Fans :-(Nov 17, 2006
By Cynthia A. Denny
My five year old son finished this ENTIRE game in one day! We have nearly all of the I Spy books and all but one of the I Spy software titles, so my son was expecting a greater challenge with this new software. When the game ended--and he told me he had beat ALL of it without my help--I thought he just clicked the wrong button or something. But, yep, he finished it! This would be a good choice for someone who wants to 'sample' the I Spy software, but for the avid fan, this is going to be a big disappointment. This series is SO popular with my son's age group, it's unfortunate that Wick and Marzollo are not creating new photos instead of rehashing the old ones. New clues are okay, but I think I've memorized all of these pictures!

 Mom of I spy fansNov 09, 2006
By L. Watrous
This is not as good as the other I Spy games. It does not let you return at harder levels as I Spy Fantasy and I Spy Treasure Hunt do. It uses many of the same pictures as the other games.
However, the searching for clues to solve the mysteries is fun.

Disappointed in I Spy MysteryMay 16, 2007
By W. Faris
"W. Faris"
My afterschool kids and I all love the I SPY computer games but were disappointed in I SPY MYSTERY because it is made up of puzzles that are in all of the other I SPY games. There was nothing new. Also, the game cost $19.99 plus shipping and I was disappointed to see it the following week in Target for $9.99. The overall layout of the game as far as them being separated into "files" was fun but we just wish the puzzles had been new.

If you own other I Spy Games skip this oneFeb 26, 2007
By S. dow
I just got this I Spy Game and it's the same puzzles and same pictures as one of the other I spy games. If you pay the money, they should give you a completely new game! It's a rip off!
