The Scooby-Doo Haunted House 3D Board Game was a big waste of money and a bigger disappointment in my opinion. In fact, I would recommend that you buy any game in the store before buying this one. The idea of the game is neat - I have to move my pawn around the haunted house and try to get to the top of the rickety two-story mansion. On the way, secret booby traps are out to get me, like a moose head, a knight, and other such things. The construction is the game’s downfall. The game is 3D because you have to put the two stories today out of cardboard and connect a plastic staircase to them. It is in no way like a
flat gameboard that folds up.
My 6-year old begged me for this game. Nothing else would do despite my reservations. Anything with the great iconic classic Scooby Doo would have to be fantastic and I could not talk him out of it. When he finally got it, he was unable to play with it because the plastic parts kept falling off. Let me say at this time that there are a lot of parts. I struggled and struggled and got more and more frustrated. Even my husband could not get the parts to fit correctly. These plastic parts are supposed to fit into the cardboard. The instructions could have been Greek for all they helped. Mind you, I am a college graduate.
