Swamp Monster Blues is an educational puzzle game. There are two types of challenges: mini-games within the game, and math/logic puzzles to be solved with pen and paper. At various junctures in the game, the story prompts the player for a code that can only be obtained by solving a specified puzzle in the workbook (distributed as a PDF file along with the game). Then, there are 8 minigames to challenge the spies, including an alligator hopping game similar to Frogger, a maze game, and a word ladder game.
