Little series of Cluefinders doodles I did today because I needed something to draw. So, I ended up drawing the kids trying to solve the many, many problems they run across in the course of their adventures. Mostly playing with body language tbh (I think Owen has no clue what's going on honestly, but an attempt was made.)
Oh I just remembered a childhood game that I thought I lost. All I had to go off of was that it was kind of like Jumpstart but not Jumpstart and I remember there was one set in Egypt. It was cluefinders! I'll have to add that to my to play list
This fucker right here is 90% of my childhood. I love the tube worm. I would die for the tube worm. I spent countless hours hearing him talk about his seg-a-ments and getting cri-pi-tiles out of his tubes
With the revival of Y2K aesthetics, can we talk about edutainment games? More specifically can we talk about the absolutely wild lore of the Cluefinders games? There’s not one, but two different species of talking sentient plants, one being a Beatles parody and the others being ecoterrorists, they are not connected to each other at all. There is an island where the decedents of Union and Confederate soldiers continue live and have their brains harvested as food by evil aliens. The Egyptian gods are real. Charles Martinet is here.
[ALT available, ID: a puzzle from ClueFinders 3rd Grade Adventures: The Mystery of Mathra. Main characters Joni and Santiago are trying to solve a puzzle which requires them to choose the right length of vine in order to make a rope fence around a pit of water. Orko is floating next to them, looking at the monkey presenting the puzzle. /end ID]
Orko in Cluefinders. Will he find Mathra, or will he spend hours lost in the jungle or listening to the Liverpuddlians songs like I did?
