I thought Snodgits was
the name of Bernie Winter's
dog until I discovered Creative
Sparks' latest cheapie. But no,
it's a maze detective game with
a hint of platform. It won't
stretch your brain cells too
much but as a sleuth spoof on
Cluedo and all those Agatha
Christies (with a soupson of
Gremlins thrown in for good
measure) this gamette ought to
raise a giggle, if not the roof.
There are five game
locations - ranging from
Mystery Mansions to
Whodunnit Hall (geddit!) all on
different parts of the tape. Here
lives the frightfully awful (or is it
awfully frightful) Snodgers -
Roger, Daphne and Lord and
Lady Snodger, who constantly
order Benton the Butler. Whilst
doing his menials, the genial
but apparently lobotomized,
Benton (well at least we know
the butler didn't do it) (or did
he?) tries to solve various
house mysteries like who
should do bird for stealing the
turkey.
You're given a map of the
whole house and a bearing, so
you can track yourself and the
target clue, to help you in your
quest.
Snodgits has BIG
graphics to help the hard of
seeing as well as some pretty
impressive 3-D effects. All in
all, at Whodunnit Hall it's hard
to be a bodger of Snodgers, so
go for it!
