Daffy Duck, P.I.: The Case of the Missing Letters Based on the famous Looney Tunes cartoon characters, the game is educational action for the kids.

You are Daffy Duck, and this time you are a Private Investigator (P.I.). The letters are escaped from their words and scattered, where they want. You should find the missing letters and fill the words with proper ones to complete your job successfully and to collect a great amount of money for this not simple task.

Completing different themed locations, Daffy will progress from one location to another. Each location represent a single screen, where letters are scattered in random places as well as different words located. You should collect the letter and bring it to proper word. When all words are filled the location will be passed, and Daffy will be allowed to proceed further. Also different enemies such as Elmer Fudd, Sylvester J. Pussycat, Yosemite Sam, or Wile E. Coyote are present on locations. They want to kill Daffy, but Daffy can also make them stunned with different weapons, such as bananas or eggs.

Each word will give you points. And each thousand of points will give you life, which you may loose on locations, therefore you should find as much words on bonus levels as possible.
