He needs a group of young detectives to help him solve the puzzles and riddles that provide the clues and will finally lead to catching the villain.

USER REVIEWS
- Veronica: "The kids loved it and the game lasted 1h30!!! we divided them into two teams of four and we added photos of the hiding places, just in case... we were in a park. They had no trouble understanding the clues."
- Laura: "It's a very interesting idea, mixing the clues and the physical challenges works really well."
- Marianne: "The kids really enjoyed it! The overall story is fun, children were sold on it right from the start, it worked really well! I particularly like the idea of everyone working as a team, cooperating rather than competing."
- Catherine: "The kids loved it, the puzzles were just the right level for them."
- Claire: "The kids loved it and I've already recommended the website."
- Christine: "I had a lot of positive feedback from the children who found it different and great fun. I highly recommend your games and the website in general."
- Lucy: "The children thoroughly enjoyed it (my daughter gave you 10/10). I was worried the clues might be too long for the children to read, but they all wanted to read each clue when they found it. Yes I'll definitely recommend your site, the idea's brilliant!"
- Bethany: "The children were between 8 1/2 and exactly 9 years old. I'd chosen the version for 7/8 year-olds to make sure everyone could join in. The clues were just right for their age, neither too simple nor too complicated. So everyone was able to take part and solve the clues. Despite all the excitement, they still managed to keep tabs on the storyline."
