About Scooby-Doo! Who's Watching Who?

In this lively, action-packed adventure, Mystery Inc. appears on a hit reality TV show about ghost hunting. When a rival show's team, GSI (Ghost Scene Investigators), questions Mystery Inc.'s "unscientific" methods of ghost detection, the challenge is on to see who can unmask the most ghosts. Players will travel cross-country with Scooby, Shaggy and the whole gang, visiting spooky locations and unmasking classic ghosts. For the first time ever, players will be able to take control of the Mystery Machine and have the ability to outrun the monsters. The game offers improved chase levels that help Scooby and Shaggy escape from the creepiest ghosts that have ever appeared in any Scooby-Doo video game. In addition, numerous game play styles, including driving, puzzle and platform, will allow players to explore vast levels inspired by classic Scooby-Doo episodes.
