‍Part Two Onto El Muncho !

‍When Mystery Inc. arrived, they were called trouble makers by the Sherrif, then they were thrown in jail, where they met a fellow named Esteban.  He told them during the cut scene, that he did not remember why he was locked up, and that he had been in jail for two days.  Then, Mystery Inc. was accused by the Sherrif of being a group called, "El Scaryachi."  After that they took a tip from Esteban and got him so riled up that he fell asleep!  Then, I had my New Objective, and it was for Shaggy or Scooby to find a way out of jail, after Shaggy talked to Fred.  After that conversation, Scooby used his doggie door, while Shaggy did his thing with his siling shot, and they went up to an upper level, where I had Scooby collect Scooby Snacks from the surrounding desks, and I had Scooby hit every desk, and item in the Sherrif's office.  Then, they went outside where Lila told them the gate was blocked, and they would need their friends to get inside.  So, Scooby explored Town Square, and I had him hit all of the tables, water jars, lanterns, pretty much everywhere and everything.  Lila also told them to go see Fred, so they talked to Fred.  He told them to record the Sheriff in his sleep.   I believe I pushed Z to use the recorder, (you all can see it in the video walkthrough), then the recording revealed a face about some gun powder in the back of the Saloon, on the way to the Saloon, they met zombie like monsters, more like skeletons, that were called Bandidos, and they defeated them, and in the process collected their first mask.

Scooby also found another sandwich ingredient, along with more Scooby Snacks, I also heard the first ghost, but I thought it was on the other side, so I saved that for later.  They went on to the Saloon, and took on more Bandidos, and they had to match the colors in order for the old fashioned piano to play the music.  That music opened some doors in the back of the Saloon, and they fought more Bandidos, before Scooby grabbed the second sandwich ingredient, more Scooby Snacks, and the gun powder.  Then, Scooby and Shaggy went back to Fred, and on my second attempt , Shaggy threw the gun powder onto the box filled with fireworks, they expoloded, before Fred, Daphne, and Velma were free!  I also learned about the Character Wheel that also had costumes on it.  Before I switched characters, I used the camera to capture the ghost I mentioned before, because it was where I could get it.  Scooby also found the next sandwich ingredient, which was the fourth one out of eight.  Then, I switched to Daphne and she climbed up to a roof, and she grabbed another letter that was the S in SCOOBY.  I switched to Fred while holding down the C button , and he pulled or pushed a heavy box, and got the first Scooby Medallion! 

Then, Velma used her computer skills to open the gate with her Velma Terminal, Daphne joined her in The Detour and they met a frog from the swamp, named Philippe.  Daphne aslo assembled a machine to open the next gate.  Then, Fred joined her and he pulled another heavy box to go up to another roof, where he got the second Scooby Medallion! He also found the B. Then, they went to Costington's mansion.  Scooby used his doggie door to grab the third Scooby Medallion!  He also captured a picture of the second ghost, after Costington talked with them on the intercom and let them in, after he mentioned that his phone was not hooked up yet, and strange things had been going on, he also wanted them to help Romero his butler.  So, the next Objective was to help Romero clean out the Zombie Brides and Bandidos.  He also asked them to find three missing books, before Scooby found more Scooby Snacks.  During the clean up process, Scooby also found the fifth sandwich ingredient in the Kitchen.  Then, Shaggy found the red book, that was behind a picture while he bounced on the bed.  Daphne and Fred worked together to solve their first puzzle, where Fred had to remove heavy boxes up and down, and right to left in order for Daphne's pole to be close enough to the boxes that the blue book was sitting on.  The yellow book was down stairs, but Fred had to push a wardrobe closet out of the way to the left .  Then, Velma used her Velma Terminal, which took several tries, until I only had to push the button for red four times.  Shaggy used his sling shot to get inside the display case.  He returned the yellow book and a secret passage way opened up.

The New Objective was to investigate Costington's Safe, Shaggy had to play a song, while he followed the colored notes, when Shaggy failed, I had Velma do it, becuse she was faster, and she got the job done, before Romero's Harmonica was finally found, after it was hidden by Costington.  On the way out, after Velma took a picture of Romero and his harmonica.  Then, Shaggy and Velma collected all 150 Bandido masks.  That part of the case was solved, and they got a Bandido disguise costume, and a Trophy!  "Forensic Friends".   Then, a Swamp hands costume, then I did some back tracking to get back to the jail.  I had to solve Velma's Terminal, and that time around it was all blue that got me through. 

El Muncho is a very long part, so I am going to stop here for tonight, but I still have a lot more to share about The Cemetery , so come back soon!

The Cemetery

‍After the picture of Romero was taken with his harmonica, I will admit since it has been awhile since I last played, I wandered around looking for the gate to the cemetery where Romero was waiting for me.  So, I went to the Objectives and it told me to meet Romero at the gate next to the jail, so I went there.  When I found Romero he called Velma and Shaggy "little monsters," so I played around with the Costumes, and I gave Velma a pumpkin head, and Shaggy sported the Zombie Bandido costume.  When they entered the old part of the Cemetery, they had to take out three pinata monsters.  They looked like pink donkeys, mean ones though, and watch out when they explode btw.  After the monster masks were collected, Fred came along , and moved a heavy box , before he used it to jump onto another ledge and then Daphne climbed across her rope to get across to get the fourth Scooby Medallion!

She also snapped a picture of the third ghost out of eight.  Then, they took out another pinata monster, and continued on till they came to a machine, that I passed by jumping up and over to the other side.  Daphne does this the best a little hint in case some one is playing the game too.  Not long after that, they came up to a familliar face, Esteban from jail!  The New Objective was to talk to him.  He told them that his brother got locked up in jail, and he wanted them to help him bail his brother out of jail.  Then, the next New Objective was for Shaggy and Scooby to find a valve in the old part of the cemetery.  In the old part, Scooby returned automatically , and Shaggy took out another pinata , along with more Bandidos, and Zombie Brides, before he had to take out four more pinatas .  They also found the valve that Esteban told them to hurry and get.  They were more interested in the smell of Lila's stew, I also saw another ghost , that was the fourth ghost, that floated around the entrance of Lila's Chamber.  Shaggy took the picture of the ghost, picked up the valve, threw it over to Esteban, and kicked more Bandidos that were also with Zombie Brides.  He also opened another area in the grave yard that had a Costume chest with Cowboy Gear. 

The key opened Lila's Chamber , where they battled spiders, and collected four puzzle pieces or scraps.  After some work and a lot of rearranging , the puzzle was solved and it was the first special ingredient, Trident Chillies, the hottest peppers around El Muncho.  Shaggy also jumped onto some purple lily pads, and across them to get the Y, in SCOOBY! 

I have to re-play the Chase and I will do my best to describe how it all went down.

Until Then!

    ‍The Chase In El Muncho!

‍I watched the video walkthrough and took more notes, and now I am ready to share about The Chase, and what happened before The Chase.  I left off where Shaggy and Scooby went across the purple lilypads.  After they did that, Scooby followed him into the mine.  Shaggy found another Super Scooby Snack with more spiders, and Scooby Snacks.  Once they were out of the mine, El Scaryachil appeared while they were on their way to get a Trident Chilly.  Then, they ran and The Chase officially began, the only objective they had was to run!  Because El Scaryachi chased after them.  So, they both ran, I think I had Scooby, and he had to avoid a lot of obstacles.  Not long after that, El Scaryachi jumped onto a float after the first gate opened.

After they slid down the first slope, I had Scooby try to get the Scooby Medallion, that was on his left side.  Which of course led to me dying, but it was on purpose, so that I had a second try at the Scooby Medallion, and he finally got it!  Then, after the second slope, Scooby went over to his left again to get the O in SCOOBY , so far they had the S, the O, the B, and the Y .  When they went towards the finish, Scooby grabbed the other Scooby Medallion, before they went over a bridge, and Scooby along with Shaggy fell off of it, and they landed in a building that had a room in it with chickens.  They fell into the hay, and El Scaryachi looked down through the hole in the roof, and something fell off of him, which was a Sherrif's badge.  Shaggy asked Scooby if he wanted to be his deputy, and the next New Objective was for them to grab the Sherrif's badge, then the Character Wheel was back in play, and the Sherrif's Badge was a clue.  The caption said, "Hmmm.... a Sherrif never goes anywhere without his badge ...... why is it here?  Did El Scaryachi drop it?" 

I stopped there , so stay tuned, because there is more of El Muncho to come!

Until Then,

   ‍El Muncho Continued

   After The Chase

‍After Shaggy and Scooby collected the Sheriff's badge, Shaggy remembered that they had to help Emilio , so I backtracked and I switched characters over to Fred, after I gave him a costume with a hat.  I also went around the areas before I had them back to the Cemetery.  I wanted to see if I had collected everything, and I saw a Scooby Medallion that I had missed!  Fred moved the heavy crate, and he jumped up onto a ladder, that got him up on the roof, then he grabbed the Scooby Medallion, before Daphne climbed over to pick up some Super Scooby Snacks and other Scooby Snacks.  I also found another Super Scooby Snack behind the Saloon's sign on its roof, I got there by having her jump across the roofs.  Then, Velma joined him at the Bank so that they could grab an El Muncho T-Shirt, or shirt.  Then, I collected more Scooby Snacks, before they made their way back to the Cemetery, at the grave keeper's hut, after taking out some more piñata monsters, that were called Sly Pinatas .    Then, at the twins place, I switched characters over to Fred, and he turned a crank.  Then, Fred and Shaggy investigated the grave keeper's hut, and took a picture of a display that was on the table, picked up some Scooby Snacks, and the fifth sandwich ingredient.

A new Objective appeared and it told them to investigate the voices that were yelling for help.  Esteban and Emilio were back in jail.  After they talked to the twin brothers , another new Objective popped up and told them to help the twins get out of jail.  So, they went back to the jail, and talked to Esteban and Emilio before the old bell in the clock tower started to ring, so they left the jail's alley and went to check out the old bell .  When they arrived, a gate opened and a new enemy came out, he always reminded me of a wrestler with fire on him, he also made an appearance in The Chase at one part, and I was so happy I avoided him and his pals.  So, they had to cool him off, in order to get his mask, it took two douses with water to defeat him, it worked best when both of the characters were attacking him at the same time, one from the front, and one from the back.  Anyway, after he was defeated, the new Objective, was to find a good hiding place and watch what Romero was up to.  I just went where the green lit up arrows were pointing, and Romero came out of the old Clocktower, and walked to another building, then they also spied on the Sheriff , and I heard another ghost, but after they took the Sheriff's picture , he caught them, and threw them back into jail. 

So, Fred and Shaggy, had to talk to the twins, and the twins told them they did not like the Sheriff, or Costington , found oil under the old cemetery, and that they should talk to him about it.  After the conversation, I noticed that Scooby's doggie door had been boarded up , so I will admit it took me a few minutes to figure out again, that Fred was the key to their jail break, he pushed a heavy crate forward and got out.  Then, I switched Shaggy out for Velma, and Velma used her Terminal to free Emilio and Esteban.  Once they were outside, Mr. Hothead aka El Fuego Diablo , the flaming mad wrestler, was waiting for them, and at one point I managed to snap a picture of him, so they cooled him off, and got his mask, and they had to take down the other ones and they grabbed their masks.  Then, Velma used her Terminal , and the colors were: yellow, red, and green, after other combinations did not work.  Then, of course I went back through the gate to the side I was just at, and I had to do the first Velma Terminal over, and once again it was blue that got me through.  During their trip back through The Detour, I took some time to catch some more masks from The Wailing Widows, and I also collected more Scooby Snacks, along with some more masks from the sly pink looking donkeys.  I collected even more masks at Costington's place, of Wailing Widows, pink donkeys, and oh yes some Mr. Hotheads that were inside, after the conversation with Costington where he shared his plans to drill for oil, but the towns folk were not too happy, and protested, until they all vanished, after the explanation , Costington asked them to search for clues to see where Romero was at.  While I was inside, I collected all of the Scooby Snacks, and fought more Wailing Widows and more El Fuego Diablos .  Then, once all of the enemies were gone, I picked up my first clue in the fireplace, in the room where they met Romero the first time. The second clue was past the room with the book shelves, where the harmonica was found for Romero, and the third one was found in the room where Fred and Daphne had to solve the puzzle with crates, in order to get one of the books.  The fourth one was found after they went through the door on the left side downstairs, with the covered couch, and more Wailing Widows.  The fifth and final clue was found in the kitchen floating above the wooden table. 

After all of the clues were collected , it was puzzle time .  I took my time arranging, and re-arranging the pieces until I saw the picture, and it told me to Hit A to Accept, after that I had to take a picture of the location where Romero was , I chose the Clocktower, and it was the new cemetery, oh well lol.  The clue was a map, and Costington said that Romero was at the new cemetery.  So, I left there and went to the new cemetery, met Emilio and Esteban at the gate that they opened, then I switched over to Fred, and he turned a crank that opened a crypt .  That crypt contained the final Scooby Medallion!  The new Objective was to open the mysterious crypt.  So, Fred went around and turned cranks in different locations to open crypts and collect each piece of the missing grave markers.  The first piece was the red one, at the top of the stairs next to a tree with the sly pink donkey on the right side, I wrapped up that case when all of the piñata masks were collected. 

The second piece was blue, and Fred found that one at the top of some stairs that were on the left.  I also fought more Wailing Widows and I took a picture of one, I also got a picture of a ghost that was floating around, a crypt I need to go back to , to get one of the sandwich ingredients I missed, that Velma's Terminal will open.  Then, the third piece was the yellow one in another crypt that was on a hill too.  After Fred placed the red one in, the blue one in, and the yellow one in, the mysterious crypt opened, and it was Romero's hide out, and Fred took a picture of some evidence. Then, there were more spiders to take care of on the way to the mausoleum , after a discussion about how strange it was that Romero was researching the people of El Muncho. 

Well, I am going to stop there for now, I did wrap up El Muncho, and there was so much action, I could not stop to take the rest of my notes, so I am watching the video walkthrough , all I can say is that the showdown with El Scaryachi is coming up next time, so stay tuned!

Until Then,

Keep On Playing!

   ‍BOSS

El Scaryachi  Showdown At The Mausoleum !

When Velma and Fred arrived at the mausoleum, Fred made a comment about someone knowing that they were coming, or that they were expecting them, before he also talked about how there was a stage for some kind of show, after they followed the arrows that directed them where to go.  Once, they went up onto the stage, El Scaryachi appeared in a cut scene, and he played the harmonica.  Then, the old time piano came back , and they were trapped, so the New Objective was for Velma and Fred to pick up the matching music reels , and then they threw them into the old time piano , in the correct order, and the colors also had to match the picture that was at the top of the piano.  The red music reel was first, the blue music reel was second, and then the red one again was the third one.  So, that was the end of the first part of the showdown.

The second part of the showdown involved the Bandidos , and they carried barrels filled with explosives, that Fred, or Velma had to retrieve , by defeating the Bandidos, then the goal was to get those barrels as close as possible to the big box of fireworks, by throwing them.  When they were successful, and the fireworks went off, which in turn made him mad, and so mad that he stopped playing the harmonica, his energy was also drained down in his meter. 

Then, the third and final part of the showdown, was El Scarachi with his water guns.  The main goal was for Fred and Velma to avoid getting sprayed by the water, which of course Velma got hit a couple of times, and she lost all of her Scooby Snacks, and courage.  But, she quickly recovered, and El Scaryachi  shot at some of the stage lights, and when they fell on him, Fred and Velma used their own defenses to hit him for a change.  Which in turn knocked down his energy on his meter, or bar.  Then, they repeated the same process, until he was defeated.  When I played this for the very first time, I chose Romero, but the villain was The Sheriff!  So, I remembered that, and I chose The Sheriff.  Romero actually was working undercover for the Bureau of Undercover Tactics and Ludicrous Espionage Response.  Which also spelled out B.U.T.L.E.R.  He was a spy and he admitted that Costington was their prime suspect, but when Romero started working for him, he saw that Costington did not have the resources to build the puppet.  Costington had no idea , but his oil discovery caused the Sheriff to try to stop him, because he did not want any outsiders taking his oil.  So, he became El Scaryachi to scare off Costington, but he scared off the entire town . 

When they returned to the Swamp, I had a new Trophy, El Muncho All Wrapped Up.  The caption said, "You left the Sheriff simmering in jail, after foiling his recipe for disaster."  I also had another costume that was available,  Superhero Mask!  The caption said, "The only thing you're missing now is your own theme music!"  So, that was the end of El Muncho for now, I will return in Explore Mode, to find the missing goodies, like the last two sandwich ingredients, and the ghost that I missed when I was in Upper Town and the Sheriff caught them, so right now I am in Story Mode, and can't explore until the entire story is completed.  Now , I am back in the Swamp with Shaggy and Scooby , and Lila , so I have some things to do there , before she ships them off to Howling Peaks.

   ‍Back At The Swamp

‍ Before I had Scooby and Shaggy follow Lila's scent trail, I had Scooby collect Scooby Snacks that were all over and around their Clubhouse, and other areas of the Swamp.  Then, they went into another part of the swamp, where Scooby pulled switches in order for certain platforms to appear, and they went across to the other side.  Until, they reached The Marshlands, where Scooby found even more Scooby Snacks, and they came to a catapult that Scooby used to launch and toss watermelons at the targets, to close the gaps in the bridge.  I also saw a ghost , so I snapped a picture. The ghost was on the side of the swamp , and it floated around the middle section of the bridge.  After the second ghost's picture was taken, they went onto the bridge.  When they made it around, they stopped suddenly when they saw a big tail come out of the water.  After they made it over the bridge, Scooby went on another Scooby Snack hunt, before Scooby jumped across some more wooden platforms, where some barrels were waiting, having learned from previous experiences , I made sure Scooby took one. 

Because, there were some sharp vines with chili peppers on them, and they hurt Scooby and Shaggy if they touched them, so the explosives were there to get those hot peppers out of their way. After Scooby and Shaggy made it past the first chili pepper vines, Scooby went to his left to capture a picture of the third ghost, that liked to play hard to get, but he got the picture, and grabbed the Super Scooby Snack, along with another barrel of explosives.  Then, they went over another bridge and into the next area with explosives , that also had the next sandwich ingredient, which was the third one out of eight.  After the sandwich was grabbed, Scooby removed more hot pepper vines, and they went around an area with the scene of an old plane crash.  Scooby sniffed out the Scooby Snacks, before they walked through the wrecked plane, and collected more Scooby Snacks, and in the same area is a secret place Fred is needed in order to get to the hidden Scooby Medallion, so I will return.  Once they were out, I saw the fourth ghost floating around a tree with another Scooby Medallion, but Daphne had to get that one, so I will return to the tree in Explore Mode.  So, they went on, and Scooby let Shaggy hit some objects in order to get more Scooby Snacks.  At one point, Shaggy jumped into some water to get some Scooby Snacks, and a cut scene showed Lila, and the game had a glitch so I saw two swamp girls, it was creepy, only one Lila is enough for me.  Anyway, Shaggy and Scooby gave her the Trident Chili , she told them that the stew was not ready yet, and she needed more, then she sent them to her chicken coop , where they had to quickly put all five of her chickens back into her chicken coop, and Shaggy thought that they were being used, but of course Scooby just thought through his stomach , he wanted the food.

So, Shaggy ended up agreeing with him, after the chickens were cooped up again, (a joke), I had Shaggy jump up onto the roof of the chicken coop to get the fourth sandwich ingredient, where most of the video walk throughs I watched , just left the sandwich there, I guess I am a player that likes to collect special items.  He also found more Scooby Snacks, then they returned to Lila , and she told them the chicken coop was a test, like the Dojo , and that they needed to go to Howling Peaks, she was so close to releasing a darkness she had in her heart, and that with each question they asked her, she was feeling it grow stronger and that she was losing control of it, and they would be in danger.  Then, she gave them a magnifying glass, collected some more Scooby Snacks, and they went back to the chicken coop, not to play the mini game, but to grab some Super Scooby Snacks , after Shaggy or Scooby grabbed a Scooby Medallion that was in the yard, and the Super Scooby Snacks were on three stumps that they jumped across.  Then, they headed back, but along the way, there was a tree that had a symbol on it, so Shaggy used the magnifying glass to reveal what was hidden inside, and they got another Trophy!  The name of the Trophy was "Mystery Magnified!"  The caption said, " No clues escape your piercing gaze ."  They also had another costume, Superhero boots, the caption flashed and said something about the boots won't make you run faster, or something along those lines, I was more interested in the revealed secret, which was another letter, an O.  

I also did some back tracking a little to check out another symbol on another tree , but I also came upon another pressure switch, and this time Shaggy went onto the pressure switch , while Scooby stayed on the stump, as it went up, then he jumped up and got the third letter out of six, which was another O.  Then, I explored some more and found a second costume !  A Zombie Dress, that was moaning to be worn.  After that, I went across the fallen log , and I went back towards "Suji's Trail,"  and I went through there and back to the very first way that they used to get it, and to Lila, to another tree that Scooby used the magnifying glass, on it to find the fourth letter , the S.  After the fourth letter was collected, Scooby and Shaggy returned to the Clubhouse, where Daphne was reading a letter from Anna, and Fred then announced that they were going to Howling Peaks for a real break.  Velma also told them to go to the map, to show Fred the way, and then they were off to Howling Peaks.

Next time I will share how Howling Peaks worked out, it is really long though, and I just started playing it , so stay tuned!

Until Then!

 ‍  The Arrival At Howling Peaks

‍After Scooby and Shaggy went to the map, and I selected Howling Peaks, the game started to load, and then a cutscene with a Yeti played out, he came out after Velma asked Daphne if she was excited to see Anna again, and Daphne said that she was , and that she hadn't seen Anna since the Phantom situation at Anna's school.  Then, the Yeti that had been watching them, came along and threw their van into the air.  After they crash landed, Scooby and Shaggy went after some Scooby Snacks, after Anna talked to the gang, and informed them that the mail was not in service, and hadn't been in weeks, so that was interesting to hear.

Then, of course I sent Scooby and Shaggy on a Scooby Snack hunt, before the first Objective came along, after Anna suggested they find Moose's shop .  So, they found his shop, and Scooby along with Shaggy, explored the entire store for Scooby Snacks, then they saw Moose, went to the Costume Chest, and got some winter gear to survive the blizzard.  I snapped a picture of Moose, then he talked about Anna, the key chain she gave him, how rad it was that they had no tourists, the disappearing snow machines, and how sick they looked .  He sounded like a Valley dude.  Then, Anna told them to come to the Chalet , to get out of the blizzard, before they did I had Scooby hit the cars for Scooby Snacks, then once inside, Anna talked about Moose, how she hoped he liked the keychain she gave him, she also told them about having no tourists, the missing snow machines, the missing ski lift passes, and her missing manager, Sergio.  That, she wanted Scooby and Shaggy to look for while using the magnifying glass to follow the hidden trail of tissues.

The first half of the trail of tissues led them to the kitchen, where the first sandwich ingredient out of eight was waiting for them on the other side.  Scooby also found more Scooby Snacks, before they headed to the laundry room, found more tissues, and they went into the storage room.  Where they followed more of the trail of tissues, went outside, found more tissues, and some very big footprints before they continued on and went across the bridge, to a cellar.  Where they heard some one crying.  Sergio told them not to take his fire away, because it was keeping the little terrors away, and that he was not leaving the room.  He also made a deal with them, and he told them that if they got him some supplies, he would give them the key to the locked cabin that had the large footprints in front of it.  So, they went to get him another box of tissues.  After they made it across the bridge, Shaggy and Scooby were attacked by the little terrors, Sergio had mentioned.  I got a picture of them and they were called, Weendigos , then they collected masks, returned to the storage room, where I used the magnifying glass to reveal the box of fresh tissues.  Shaggy used his sling shot , went up, and got them, before they headed back out to Sergio.

So, after Sergio had the box of fresh tissues, he made a request for a fresh pair of socks.  Then, Shaggy and Scooby went to the laundry room, cleaned the dirty socks in the washing machine, before they returned with the clean pair of socks for Sergio.  After that, Sergio told them that he did not have enough strength to throw them the key, but if they made him some pumpkin and broccoli soup , he would have enough strength .  So they went to the kitchen, made him his soup, and took it to him.  He thanked them for the soup, and tossed the key out.  Shaggy picked up the key, opened the cabin, and took photos of the Yeti research .  Shaggy also picked up some more Scooby Snacks.

I have to stop here for now, because of a thunderstorm, so hopefully I can continue after the rain, or tomorrow.

Until Then!

Keep On Playing!

   ‍Howling Peaks Continued

‍After Shaggy found some more Scooby Snacks, Anna sent a message over the radio, and told them to come back to the Chalet, and before she did that, they heard the Yeti's roar,  and he was coming , so they went back to the gang, and they were safely inside, before Lila's stew 's scent lured them back outside.  They followed the trail, to Whyte Junction , where they had to defeat a new enemy, the Lurker, that I took a picture of, and of course there were more of those Weendigos , before another Lurker, that reminded me of a blob made out of snow.  After collecting all of the masks, they continued following the scent's trail.

That led them to a building , where Scooby talked to the frog , and he told them a joke, "What did the bus driver say to the frog?"  Give up?  "Hop on!"    Then, Scooby found some Scooby Snacks, and he had to use a battery to unlock the other door.  After he climbed up some ramps, and placed the battery where the arrow showed him to put the battery, the power was charged up, and the light above the door turned green.  Then, they followed the scent, had more Lurkers to defeat, then they came to a house, got a gear off of the balcony, to open the gate.  After the gate opened, they went through it, and they were in Howling Village .  Where there were even more Lurkers to take care of, before they went inside another building with snow , or ice spiders.  Scooby took care of them.  Then, they looked for Scooby Snacks that were all over the place, practically in every room.  Shaggy also used his sling shot to go up a floor, and he took a picture of the first ghost that was hanging around outside the window.

He also grabbed a snowball , jumped back down, before he threw the snowball into the fireplace, to put out the fire, so that Scooby could use a doggie door to go outside, and the first Scooby Medallion was on the roof, Scooby also grabbed a Super Scooby Snack, and some Scooby Snacks, then they went off the roof, beat up some more Lurkers, went inside another building , where Shaggy found some Scooby Snacks , and the letter C, in SCOOBY, after he caught the frog again, and the frog told them that the Weendigos were very scared of fire, so I will keep that tip in mind as I continue through Howling Peaks, but this is where I left off , so next time I will share more!

Stay Tuned!

Until Then!

    ‍Howling Peaks Continued

‍ After Shaggy grabbed the letter C, they went into the Dark Forest, where they met Barry 'Baz' Buckley, and he made a deal with them, so Shaggy had to take a picture of the wolves for him, I also collected Scooby Snacks along the way, I also took a picture of 'Baz', and I snapped a picture of the second ghost, while they stood on one of the bridges, and the ghost was hanging out in the canyon.  Once Shaggy took a picture of the wolves, of course they had to fight them, so I collected those masks, but they returned to 'Baz', gave him the photo of the wolves, and he kept his deal, and he freed the rest of gang, that was trapped inside the chalet.

Once they were reunited, Anna had a distress call that came in over the radio, from Planks, Dustin Planks the logging Supervisor.  Anna told them to go to the cabin that was past Sergio's cabin. So, Scooby-Doo and Shaggy too went to the radio room , but they also remembered that it was locked, and that they needed a key.  which led them back to Sergio, and he asked them to make him some more soup, only this time around he wanted some beans and broccoli soup, so they made him the soup, and he tossed out the key.  Scooby grabbed the second sandwich ingredient, before they listened on the old radio to Dustin Planks , or "Cranky Planks", and his message .  Then, Anna told them via radio that Logging Yard's entrance was on the left of the Mystery Machine, so Scooby and Shaggy went back to the Mystery Machine,  and they continued on to their left, before she gave them another message, and said that the Logging Yard's entrance had been snowed over, and that they would have to use the snow plow, that also needed fuel.

She told them that there was spare fuel around, and to have a look, so they searched, and found a cabin not too far from the Mystery Machine, and inside the cabin was the spare fuel, along with the third sandwich ingredient, so Scooby grabbed that, along with the fuel, so Scooby grabbed the fuel, before they went back out to the snow plow and Scooby placed the fuel in the snow plow, but Velma was needed to really get it going, by activating her Velma Terminal .  So, that is where I left off and I am thinking since I played this game three times already, that I would just watch the videos walkthroughs and write notes, because the snow plow 's color wheel was annoying, and I also got tired of Shaggy calling Velma a "dude", when I used her to let off some steam, and I had her hit Shaggy every time he said it, so I may just skip that frustration , and then again I will probably keep trying, to get through it again.

Until Then!

Keep On Gaming!

   ‍Howling Peaks Continued

‍I left off last time stuck at the snow plow , which like I said took way too many times , that I would have liked to admit, but I just kept on trying , until I hit the right combo of colors, that involved blue, red, and yellow, but it was not in that order.  So, I finally got the snow plow to move, and I had to get more Weendigos  out of my way.  After defeating the Weendigos , and collecting more masks, they headed onto Plank's Logging.

Where  I had Velma explore the area, and to the left was a body of water with some ice floating on it, that also had the second Scooby Medallion!  Then, they talked to Planks, he told them not so nicely to get the key to the crane.  So, she went to his office, grabbed the key, and it was the same color combo that got the crane started.  Planks was freed, and he ordered them to follow the beast , that had trapped him in the porta potty.  So, the new objective was to follow the trail of destruction, which I will admit, I was going around in circles , then I remembered that I had go back to Whyte Junction, to get to the Dark Forest, so Velma and Scooby went back there, and into the building with the battery operated doors.

She put the battery , the door opened, and they went to Howling Village, while they followed the Yeti, Velma went into a house on the right, side, and there were more of the arctic spiders, and a box for Fred.  So, I switched to Fred, he pushed the box, jumped up on a balcony , went across , and walked over to a corner that was on the far right, grabbed the fourth sandwich ingredient, and he collected Scooby Snacks from the easy chair, and grandfather clock.  He also collected more Scooby Snacks , while they continued to follow the trail of destruction, before they came upon a crank. While he turned the crank, the crank moved the clock hands, until it made the clock chime, then a costume chest was revealed at the bottom.  However, I learned that I shouldn't take my sweet time opening the costume chest.

Because, the doors closed on me, well Fred, and he had to turn the crank again, and Fred even got trapped inside , after he grabbed the Skeleton Suit .  Then, they went into the Dark Forest, where they had to talk to Barry.  Barry told them that he saw the Yeti, and how to get into the Deep Dark Forest through a secret passage at the base of the tree with cans of beans by it.  But, I saw a task for Daphne , and she climbed up her pink pole , and grabbed the third Scooby Medallion!  She also helped Fred defeat two more wolves, then they came to a cabin, that needed Velma to open the entrance, but I decided to try it another time, and they defeated more wolves.

Before they crossed the bridge, and fought some more wolves, they came up to a crate for Fred.  After he pushed the crate, he hopped up onto a ledge to get the letter O in SCOOBY.  I am going to stop here for now, I am still playing the Deep Dark Forest, and now I am hearing thunder , so I gotta go now.

Until Then!

Keep On Playing!

    ‍Howling Peaks Continued

In the Dark Forest, I had Velma return and she got into the cabin with the green and blue combo, inside was the fifth sandwich ingredient.  She also found more Scooby Snacks, in the easy chair, the grandfather clock, and table.  Then, Velma and Scooby fought more wolves, and collected more masks.  After the wolves were gone, Velma and Scooby  made their way into the Deep Dark Forest , and then I switched out Velma for Shaggy, before Scooby and Shaggy solved a puzzle with stepping stones, that rose , and then fell when they were stepped on, before the next series of stones rose, and they had to step on them, then they fell, and the entrance to the ruins and Snowy Sanctuary opened.

Then, Shaggy used the magnifying glass to find the five scraps to the next puzzle that were hidden in cubes of ice.  I just skipped some of that, and picked them all up, and threw them into hot pot, and that saved me some time.  Once all of the scraps were found, I worked on solving the puzzle, after Shaggy snapped a picture of the third ghost , that was towards the back of the Lila's winter place.  After some rearranging, the puzzle revealed the next ingredient for Lila's stew, Ice Cap Mushrooms.  So, the new objective was to find a way of out of Lila's old family dwelling, and go on a mushroom hunt, at top of the mountain.  Which it was quite easy to find the way out, there was a secret passage with a door that opened.  After they went out, they had a new enemy to face , when one of the snow men came to life!  Shaggy and Scooby defeated two of them, and they collected the first two masks, then Shaggy took a picture of the fourth ghost floating around some logs.  Then, the next new objective was to look for suspicious evidence.  They looked around and found some Yeti fur, then they had to take on some Weendigos , before the ice broke and they fell to the next level.

Shaggy also slid right past the letter B in SCOOBY, while he was going down the slope, then Anna sent a distress call over the radio, and she told them to return.  On the way back, I got a picture of the snow man enemy, and it was called "Snow mean."  He certainly lived up to his name, Shaggy lost his courage a couple of times, when he was hit by the spinning Snow mean, after collecting some more masks from the living snow man meanie , they met Anna at the ski lift behind Moose's shop, then I called it a day, so next time Scooby and Shaggy will go up the mountain.

Until Then!

    ‍The Great Yeti Chase Of Howling Peaks 

‍‍Scooby  and Shaggy used their special abilities to get on the ski lift .  Then, they rode it to The Summit , where Anna said they had to go to the caves, where they could find Ice Cap Mushrooms, so they went there , by climbing up some snow covered ledges.  On the way up, Scooby snatched some Scooby Snacks, and a Super Scooby Snack.  Once they were at the top,  Shaggy went for a can of beans, and the Yeti appeared, then they ran, after Shaggy said "I guess those beans were his!"   Now this chase was not my favorite, because while Shaggy ran with Scooby , he kept on falling into a hole, so they had to start over, but keeping Scooby as the main character was the best choice, because if Scooby was not first, he would stop and wait on Shaggy.  They dodged more obstacles like, falling ice, frozen logs, more holes, all while being chased by a giant snow ball with the Yeti inside.

Then, they had to hurry , as they ran even faster, before the ice beneath them cracked, Scooby died , but I had a reason, I wanted the fourth Scooby Medallion!  Scooby had to jump across some pieces of floating ice, until he reached the last one , and he had to do that before the Yeti could take a swipe at him, so once he finally had the fourth Scooby Medallion, he ran , but then Shaggy stopped a couple of times to wait on Scooby, so my tip no matter what keep your character moving, so that the other one does not wait for them to catch up, or vise versa .  Later on in the chase, I had Scooby die for the next Scooby letter, I think it was either a C or one of the O's .  The Yeti slid on his belly, and they slid around too, that was the part of the chase where they could get a Trophy, by sliding around all of the flags, or have the Yeti do that, I can't remember, and I always just wanted to get to the end of the chase, so I never went for it, but maybe in Explore Mode, I will try it.  While everyone was sliding around, they had to avoid the Weendigos on skis , that appeared on the course, then they slid down a slope, grabbed the ski lift, as the Yeti took one final swipe at them, and they ended up falling behind Moose's shop.

‍After The Great Yeti Chase Of Howling Peaks

‍Their new objective was to find a way back into the building, so while Scooby went on a hunt for more Scooby Snacks, he destroyed all of crates, and in the last one they found a key.  The key unlocked the back room, where Scooby found Scooby Snacks, and they collected more scraps for the next puzzle.  Shaggy used his sling shot to get the first two pieces, then Scooby used his doggie door to find the last three pieces, that were way up high.  After some moving around, and re-arranging , the scraps turned out to be the missing Ski lift tickets, after the clue was found, Shaggy thought that Anna should see the clue, so the new objective was to talk to Anna at the Chalet.

Shaggy showed Anna the found Ski lift tickets, told her where they found them, but Anna did not think it was Moose that took the tickets.  She wanted Scooby and Shaggy to look around the Chalet to find evidence that proved that Moose was innocent, and that Baz had planted them.  She also needed to find out what parts of the animal displays were missing.  After talking to Anna, they headed upstairs, to room # 1, and they used the magnifying glass , and found a missing deer head, so Shaggy took a picture of it, before Scooby picked up the fifth Scooby Medallion!  In room #2, Scooby found a missing moose head.  Then, in room #3, there was a missing bear rug, while in room #4, there was another missing deer head, Scooby took some pictures, and Shaggy took some pictures of the missing animal display parts, before they returned to Anna.  Well, one of the photos had the key ring Anna had given to Moose in it, but she still believed that it had been planted, but she did say that they needed to talk to him.  She also told them where his cabin was , and it was near some ice caves in the Logging Yard.  I was kind of tired, and I was not ready to contend with that snow plow again to get back to the Logging Yard, so I called it quits for another day.  Next time, I will return to the Logging Yard, and share those adventures.

Until Then!

The Return To Planks

Velma returned to start up the old snow plow again.  The magic colors were red, green, yellow, and blue, but not in that order.  Scooby took on more Weendigos , while Velma also collected more Scooby Snacks.  After they arrived, the new objective was to get the key from Cranky Planks, and he told them he was cooking and to pretty much go away, so they had to smoke him out using the catapult .  But, they had to find the missing parts , before they could use it  The first part was on the left side, near Plank's cabin, and a pile of snow balls.  The second missing part was near the water, behind a pile of logs.  The third missing part was between the Port -A-Potty , and Plank's cabin.  The fourth missing part was right beside Plank's crane, and a large pile of logs.  The fifth missing part and final missing part was beside the chain linked fence, and more logs that were covered with snow.

Once all of the parts were back into place, the catapult was ready for some action, Velma collected the snow balls and placed them on the catapult, and I kept it directed at the middle window, and the snow ball made a direct hit.  Planks wanted to know what was going on, and he said that he was cooking in there.  I started to see some smoke , so that was a good sign.  Then, I aimed it at the far left window, and made more smoke, and I heard more yelling.  The third hit was a little ways over from the second hit, and it made him yell, " Stop it! Stop it!"  He yelled some more, and after some more hits, I pretty much had to keep on repeating the same process, see what windows were closed, and see what windows were open, it became tedious , until finally Cranky came out for some air. Then, Velma went in , grabbed the sixth sandwich ingredient, and the key to the crane.  She placed the key into the crane, and then green and yellow were the colors that broke the code.  The crane, lifted and pulled away some logs, and they had to find a way into the Ice Caves.

On the way in, Scooby and Velma were confronted by Frankenmoose .  He was not the easiest , but after blinding him with snow, they defeated him.  Then, they looked for what he was guarding with the magnifying glass .  The entrance was revealed and I had to figure out the pattern, and I also remembered that the glowing stones had to be hit with snowballs.  So, I had Velma try the one on the far right, and the color changed to a glowing white and it stayed still, then she tried another one and had to start over, before she hit the one on the far right again, and then she hit the one on the far left, then she hit the one next to the one on the far left, and the one that was next to the one on the far right.  After that, the entrance opened, and Baz asked her for help, so I switched over to Fred and Daphne , and the two of them worked together, he did the pushing, she did the riding, if she stayed on, and it was very frustrating when she did not, because I had to start over, but once she did, he pushed her over to the final ledge , where she picked up a barrel of fire, and she went down to the chunk of ice on the floor, the fire melted it, and she picked up the first key.  She also collected more Scooby Snacks along the way, Then, in another room, Shaggy and Scooby  found and melted the chunk of ice to get the second key.  Scooby also captured a picture of the fifth ghost, that floated around the barrel of fire, that was used to melt the ice around the second key.  After they left, Shaggy placed the key into the second panel, and Velma came back to crack the color code on her Terminal, so after a few tries, I called it a night .

I will continue this tomorrow, it was just really long, so stay tuned!

Until Tomorrow!

In The Ice Caves‍

The following day I tried to continue where I left off, and after hitching another ride on the snow plow, I was happy to see Planks huffing and puffing outside.  I did not have to repeat that process, then Velma tried to find the key again, but it was still in the crane, and the logs were still where the crane had left them.  So, Velma and Scooby returned to the Ice Caves, I did have to have Fred, Daphne, Scooby, and Shaggy get the two keys again.  Then, after several more tries on Velma's Terminal, I finally made it in to where Baz was with green and blue, those were the colors that got me through. Velma and Fred held off even more Weendigos , while Velma placed the barrels of fire around Baz, so that he could wriggle out of the ropes, that had him hanging upside down.

After he was freed, they used the fire to melt some walls of ice on the back wall, one led to the way out, while the other area was something that I would return to in Explore Mode, it was a puzzle that involved placing crates a certain way and having colors match up, so I skipped that for now.  Then, the entire gang helped each other find the scraps to the next puzzle.  Daphne also found sandwich ingredient # 7.  The puzzle did not take me too long to figure out, and it revealed the next clue that was a map of Plank's Logging Yard.  The exit opened, after I accepted the completed puzzle , and there were more Weendigos, and another Frankenmoose.  Scooby tried to throw a can of beans at him, but Scooby was laid low, before suddenly I saw a 2/20 appear on the top right of my screen, I guess old Frankenmoose took care of himself.  Then, the exit opened again, before Scooby and Fred went back to the Logging Yard, on the other side of the fence, then I switched over to Daphne, and she climbed up onto a rocky ledge to grab the letter Y in SCOOBY.  After she found the letter Y, they went to Moose's cabin that was in the same area. 

So, Daphne knocked on the door, because that was the next objective, and Moose's friend told her that she ain't coming in, and he called her a dude and a man.  Then, the objective after that was to record Moose and his conversation, after he returned.   Moose had plans to finish his preparations on the Summit, so Daphne said they had to go there, and Anna had a message about the Ski lift being opened again after repairs, so that they all could ride it .  So, I returned to the Chalet , and called it a day.

Next time will be the big show down with the Yeti, so stay tuned!

Until Then!

    ‍The Great Summit Yeti Fight

‍The Boss began after Scooby and Shaggy returned to the Summit, and since everyone could go, I tried adding Daphne, with one of them, then I added Fred, but I forgot that the Summit needed Scooby and Shaggy's special skills , so they returned to the Summit, and they had their first portion of the Boss fight, with good old Frankenmoose.  Which his battle was quite easy, Scooby may have thrown a snow ball at him, but then Scooby and Velma made him fall off the edge of the cliff, or mountain.

Then, the first battle with the Yeti , was a little more challenging , I just had to remember to keep Scooby , or Velma moving as much as possible to avoid the ice shards , but Scooby died a couple of times, until finally a chunk of the of the cave's roof hit the Yeti on the head, and they could take some swings at him, until that part of the battle was over, and he had some of his energy drained from his meter on the left side of my screen. 

During the next phase of the final battle, they defeated 150/150 Weendigos , so that case was solved.  The award was another costume piece , Weendigo Paws.  Then, Scooby was blown off of the top of the Summit more times than I care to recall, and they tried to fight more Weendigos , and I also looked for the can of beans .  Velma was also blown off by the Yeti's breath , that created a crazy wind , that also blew away the cans of beans that I had to get .  So, I thought Fred should join in the fun, and he was blown off the mountain too, not as many times as Scooby or Velma , but still too many for my liking, still he could hide behind the broken pieces of ice better, and more importantly, he could get a hold of the can of beans .  He also found more Courage , the heart, only one heart, but it helped.  Scooby did too, but he fell off immediately after he would get some more courage, so Fred faired better, and he finally tossed a can of beans into the Yeti's opened mouth, and he managed to repeat those same steps two more times, and then Yeti's energy went completely out, before I was taken to the screen to find the guilty person, I snapped a photo of Moose, and the word GUILTY appeared across the picture of him , in bright red letters.

Moose was the FrankenMooose, and his snow boarding buddies controlled the Yeti, that was made of the missing parts of the Chalet's animal displays, and the missing snow machines, that were also used to create the blizzard .  Anna told Moose that he hurt a lot of people including her.  Planks even got on him , and Moose complained about the tourists and he told them he wanted the mountain to himself.  Baz congratulated Mystery Inc.  Moose called them "Meddling dudes, and dudettes .  So, Howling Peaks was wrapped up, and they returned to the Swamp, after a cut scene where Shaggy told Lila that they had the Ice Cap Mushrooms, and Velma told them they would talk when they got back to the club house, and then it was Shaggy's turn to complain when the rest of the gang wanted to know about Lila, and he told them they would mess up the feast, and that there would be no feast.

After they returned to the Swamp, a Trophy was rewarded to me, for stopping Moose, "Howling Peaks Defeated",  "You froze Moose's plans to dominate the mountain."  I also was rewarded with some Astronaut Boots  "That's one small step for you."  After the awards, the gang told Scooby and Shaggy to go on ahead, but they would meet with them soon, and I played it for a little bit, then I stopped there , saved my progress, and called it a day.  Next time, I will share more about the new area of the Spooky Swamp.

Until Then!

Enjoy Your Weekend!

   ‍The Journey to The Lost Village

The journey to the Lost Village , began by them following Lila's scent trail.  Then, a big tail came out of the water, and knocked a log down for Shaggy and Scooby to cross.  Once they were across the log, they went through another log , or dark tunnel, before they came to a raft.  While the raft went on the river, Shaggy went on some arrows that made the raft travel to the left and right, in order to get some Scooby Snacks.  Then, the raft stopped , and after walking up some bridges, Shaggy used the magnifying glass to get another Scooby Snack.

I also had Shaggy collect some more Scooby Snacks by exploring the Lost Village.  He also searched for pieces to a puzzle , he had to look for pink, yellow, green, orange, and blue (what looked to me like paint cans, or candle holders.)  That he had to place in the matching glowing colored area on the ground.  I found all of them, but the yellow one almost had me stumped. Until, Shaggy pulled a lever, and it was at the top.  Shaggy also found two more ghosts, that were hanging around in the swamp.  Once all of the pieces were in place, a door on a big tree's trunk opened.  When they went inside, I got a Trophy!  The Trophy had a title that said, "Big and Delicious!"  "Have the boys met their match?"  They also were given Superhero gloves!  "A fist full of awesome!"  Shaggy also found the fourth Scooby Medallion!  Then, Shaggy hit a tree and he collected all of the Scooby Snacks, after he hit it multiple times, before they left.  The next task was to collect the gears, and after all four of the missing gears were locked into place, Shaggy pulled on another lever.  When Scooby and Shaggy went inside, he found two more gears.  Velma also talked to him on the Walkie Talkie, and she told them to hurry up, because they had found a shot cut and they were there waiting on them.

Shaggy told her to be careful, then he pulled the lever, and they went out the new exit, where he found the last ghost!  Then, they met up with the gang, before Lila asked them about the ingredient she needed during the introductions.  Then, after the Ice Cap Mushrooms were added, it was time for the final Boss .

‍Defeat The Beast

‍Shaggy had to hit Suji with water melons , until some of Suji's energy was drained, before the second part of the battle began.  Then, during the second part of the battle , Shaggy and Scooby had to out run her tail, while they tried to dodge it and vines that laid them low.  Once some more energy was drained, the third part of the battle started , which had Lila throw down ingredients from the stew, that Shaggy had to throw into the pot that was at the top of a two sided stair case on the platform, until the battle ended when Suji ate the stew.  Before the game ended, the gang saw the letters, and discovered it had been her all along.  She explained that her family moved away a long time ago, but she couldn't leave the swamp, until she found food that she could take with her.  She thanked all of them , and left after keeping her promise to Shaggy and Scooby, and creating the feast they wanted.  Then, they played a mini game that was called, "Sandwich Stacking", I was Scooby , and Shaggy won, but I had a new high score.  The game called me awesome, before the credits rolled, and a new scene followed that showed a new Trophy, Scooby-Dooby-Doo! "Trudging through mysteries for heavenly stew.  You foiled the bad guys , Scooby -Dooby- Doo!"  I also got another costume, Boxing gloves!  "Float like a butterfly sting like a bee."  The game was complete, and I was free to explore!  Next time.

Stay Tuned For The Explore Mode!

Until Then!
