Spy Treasure Hunt makes an ideal gift--it's fun and absorbing,
and parents will agree that all the time their kids spend with the
game will be time well spent. 
I
Spy Treasure Hunt contains a total of 20 detailed scenes that
each present a challenge in the form of a riddle. These challenges
can be solved by listening to, or reading, clever riddles that ask
kids to find objects on the screen — for example, "I spy
two earrings, a worm back in place; Seven insects, what's used to
erase?" One especially fun scene can be found at the top of
an old fort. Children use a pair of virtual binoculars to examine
the town more closely and search for items in the scene.
Every
time players complete a riddle screen, they earn a piece of a map.
This piece had been hiding on the screen all along, and yet
another riddle will give a clue to its location, whether it's in a
bird's beak or under a spider. The program features three
different maps, each with a unique treasure hunt. One map takes
the form of a rebus puzzle — kids must decode a message in order
to find the treasure. Though the 20 I Spy pictures are the
same for each hunt, the riddles themselves are different. This
means there is a new set of items to find, though some objects are
repeated.
