Many of us, including myself, remember playing some of the Cluefinders games when we were in school, and how they made learning fun and exciting. Now, it's high time that we pack our bags, and see just how The ClueFinders were founded.

I know it had been a while. But thank you. Cluefinders had a special place in my heart, as I could only rent them at my local library during vacation. So seeing this really makes a part of my childhood. Also.... OMG, I just reallize something from watching this. i remember in the club house section you could read the team got socrates from an island of talking animals. I now wonder if that was Reader's homr

You made the exact comparison I was thought of with Cyberchase. Cyberchase was one of my favorite PBS shows, so I'm sure I would have loved ClueFinders series.

I hope you'll do more. I hope you'll do one about the website because I can't find anything now. I would like to find the mystery of the month stories.

Gonna keep an eye out for part two. Only thing I can say is the music is a little loud and it was hard to hear you sometimes. But great video I love this series

Hoping that the facts i provided helped you with making your videos! This was a great watch and i can't wait to see the remaining parts!

Thanks for this little nostalgia trip. I really hope they can make games like Cluefinders for the modern day.

technically their ages were between 10-12 (they changed Leslie's age when ADAPT came along because I guess they needed Leslie skipping a grade to be more believable) it's a shame that the Mattel purchase fell through I can only imagine the doll line that could have been, I mean even I would have wanted to play with some form of a laptrap toy oh what could have been, I'm surprised no one thought to try and revive the cluefinders after the success (?) of Carmen on Netflix I wonder if that winning story became what we saw on the Real World Adventure Kit Journal

If there was a chance to do this...I think they would have hinted at it by mentioning it at some point...maybe have Santiago be a pen-pal of Player's...since phonetic mis-propunciation.
