Product Overview
Cartoon Network's Ed, Edd n Eddy makes its DS debut with Scam of the Century. Arch-nemesis Captain Melonhead has absconded with Eddy's illustrious book of scams, so the teenage trio must do whatever it takes to ensure the pranks remain part of their close-knit group. The side-scrolling platform game features 13 levels, with players automatically assigned one of the Eds for a particular stage. Each character has both a primary and special attack, from belches to head-butts to sneezes. Along the way characters must confront such enemies as birds, spiders, and evil dolls, all while avoiding the constant pursuit of neighborhood kids. The touch screen is used to initiate each character's special abilities, and power-ups are earned by collecting specific items. Quarters found in each level will unlock three mini-games as well as a surprise bonus. Mini-games include quickly tapping on swelling pimples before they pop, matching three or more "meats" in a puzzle game, or flinging pies toward enemies lurking on the top screen.
