Immerse your young reader in an adventure that, yes, involves a computer, but sends them soaring on a quest that requires a bit of wit and a lot of imagination. Neighborhood Watch Kids and Duh Color Stuff is the name of the game, and kids get to join Maya, Arnold, Suzie, Billy and Johnny help solve mysteries that plague the neighborhood.
The mysteries are never the same and kids get to choose how each story and adventure unfolds as they analyze and choose the path to take. This is more than an online mystery story, this is an experience that fully absorbs kids and makes them a part of the plot.
Kids will traverse the town as they turn pages, gathering evidence, analyzing it, and then deciding on what to do an where to go next. No two adventures will be the same because each will transpire uniquely. Interspersed amongst the pages, splattered with hidden clues, are puzzles and games that may or may not help with the mystery, but are fun to play and build great problem-solving skills.
Taking place in a neighborhood called Watch, the mystery erupts when an unusual incident occurs on the playground. The kids, along with yours, then embark upon a journey around town to find clues, collect them on a well-designed “bulletin board” that saves your information even if you stop the game. Headquarters is a perfectly placed treehouse, where members gather to discuss events, information and what to do next.
