The Clue Finders Reading Adventures
The ClueFinders Reading Adventures: Mystery of the Missing Amulet is a computer game designed for ages 9–12 in The Learning Company's The ClueFinders series, where the ClueFinders embark on an adventure in an alien world to save the planet Millenia from the evil sorceress Malicia. Along the way, the game intends to help the players learn and practice language arts skills, hence the title.
At one point, it was also included as a bonus disc with the other ClueFinders games (though, in this context, it was called only by its subtitle, The Mystery of the Missing Amulet), in much the manner of The ClueFinders: Mystery Mansion Arcade and The ClueFinders Real World Adventure Kit, two other games which were both included as bonus discs at various points in time.

Famous quotes containing the words clue, reading and/or adventures:
“The mystery of the evening-star brilliant in silence and distance between the downward-surging plunge of the sun and the vast, hollow seething of inpouring night. The magnificence of the watchful morning-star, that watches between the night and the day, the gleaming clue to the two opposites.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Even the poor student studies and is taught only political economy, while that economy of living which is synonymous with philosophy is not even sincerely professed in our colleges. The consequence is, that while he is reading Adam Smith, Ricardo, and Say, he runs his father in debt irretrievably.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“We know that their adventures are childish. They themselves are fools. They are ready to kill or be killed over a card-game in which an opponent—or they themselves—was cheating. Yet, thanks to such fellows, tragedies are possible.”
—Jean Genet (1910–1986)
