How this score was computed
The VGC Score is a weighted blend on a press-comparable 0-100 quality scale. Steam approval rates are first calibrated (95% positive on Steam ≈ 89.5 quality, since Steam approval skews high). Press and tracked creator reviews each count ~2x a player review and share one cap against player evidence (creator buy/skip calls pool into an approval rate, calibrated like Steam approval); all-time sentiment is capped and halved (it's context, not verdict); reviews of the current build carry the most weight when a fresh patch anchors the window; and a 'typical game' prior keeps small samples from pegging the scale. Because press reviews and Metacritic user aggregates describe the launch build, their weight decays as the game ages (3-year half-life after a 1-year grace). That's how a game that launched rough can outgrow its old reception once updates win players over. Reviews under 2h playtime (the refund window), non-Steam activations, and free copies are downweighted.

“Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club has its issues. That said, the Peanuts fan in me could often overlook them. The charm and feeling of childhood innocence that this game offers carries much weight. The formula is a winner and is only a few changes away from being outstanding. I hope to see it return in an expanded sequel, perhaps with difficulty options, and definitely a bit more polish. Don't let this game fall victim to the Kite-Eating Tree.”

“Undoubtedly intended for the younger or more casual set, this doesn’t break any barriers but is at least a good use of the license and has a little variety as well”

“Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is a sweet and gentle adventure that captures the spirit of Peanuts perfectly, but as a game, it doesn’t always work well. The puzzles are easy, the mini-games are boring, and the fetch tasks keep coming up, even for very patient players.”

“Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club on Nintendo Switch 2 is a thoroughly enjoyable action-puzzle adventure. The persona swap system keeps investigations satisfying, the mini-game variety adds great pacing, and the story is warm, funny, and faithful to the Peanuts brand.”

“Whilst Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is not going to tax the little grey cells too much, there is enough in the game to be challenging and enjoyable for the casual sleuth. Snoopy’s comments are as witty and amusing as the comic strip, and watching his little ears flap as he runs just made me smile.”

“The game Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is a touching ode to one of the most famous cartoon characters of all time. It does well where it means most, with warmth, ease of access, and a slow pace that makes younger audiences feel welcome. It may have easy tasks and a repetitive structure, but the spirit of the game is still there. There's earnestness in every conversation and happiness in every little find. For families, it gives them a way to share an experience of kindness and wonder in a world where noise is common online.”

“The whole experience of Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club almost feels like playing through an interactive Peanuts movie, which fans will probably love! I can definitely see kids who enjoy the movies having a blast running around town as Snoopy, collecting hidden treasures, and solving cases!”

“It just made me smile and feel good about myself while playing, with its adorable presentation, great sound design, and easygoing gameplay. I have to take into account that this is, first and foremost, a family game: it’s meant for kids, and for parents to play alongside their children. In no moment did it feel challenging or complex, and to be honest, that’s totally fine. It never felt condescending, either.”

“There's absolutely nothing wrong with making a game that children can play, enjoy, and even complete. The problem arises from the fact that Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club is unable to make itself interesting beyond its mechanical capabilities as an adventure game, which aren't very good either.”

“Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club offers a short, kid-friendly adventure where Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and other Peanuts characters team up to solve mundane mysteries. With a heavy focus on fetch quests, a lack of localization, and a high price tag, it is a hard game to recommend to its target audience.”

“I wouldn’t call it a great game or a hidden gem, but it’s decent enough that it lives in that same so-so range that so many other GameMill games sit in.”
