Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club Reviews
Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is a sweet and gentle adventure that captures the spirit of Peanuts perfectly, but as a game, it doesn’t always work well. The puzzles are easy, the mini-games are boring, and the fetch tasks keep coming up, even for very patient players.
The game Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is a touching ode to one of the most famous cartoon characters of all time. It does well where it means most, with warmth, ease of access, and a slow pace that makes younger audiences feel welcome. It may have easy tasks and a repetitive structure, but the spirit of the game is still there. There's earnestness in every conversation and happiness in every little find. For families, it gives them a way to share an experience of kindness and wonder in a world where noise is common online.
It just made me smile and feel good about myself while playing, with its adorable presentation, great sound design, and easygoing gameplay. I have to take into account that this is, first and foremost, a family game: it’s meant for kids, and for parents to play alongside their children. In no moment did it feel challenging or complex, and to be honest, that’s totally fine. It never felt condescending, either.
Whilst Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is not going to tax the little grey cells too much, there is enough in the game to be challenging and enjoyable for the casual sleuth. Snoopy’s comments are as witty and amusing as the comic strip, and watching his little ears flap as he runs just made me smile.
