Cluefinders Wiki

Socrates is a dog who is a member of the ClueFinders. He has the title of Team Mascot and World's Smartest Dog.

Appearance[]

Socrates has short, light brown fur, light blue eyes, black eyebrows, and floppy ears. He wears a green collar with a yellow tag.

Personality[]

Socrates possesses human-like intelligence and awareness; he is cautious and has a knack for sensing trouble. His profile in LapTrap's ClueFinders Club file states that he came from Gabistan, an island of talking animals, and was the only island resident who couldn't speak. Socrates has several PhDs in math, literature, physics, and philosophy from the University of Gabistan. His profile also states that his secret ambition is to send LapTrap to obedience school, implying that he finds LapTrap's attitude disagreeable. In The ClueFinders 4th Grade Adventures, he also seems to dislike cats.

In the Games[]

The ClueFinders 4th Grade Adventures: Puzzle of the Pyramid[]

In the opening cutscene, Socrates narrates the events of the ClueFinders visiting Egypt to help Professor Botch. While at the opening of an ancient tomb, the ClueFinders encounter the archaeologist Alistair Loveless, whom Socrates is immediately suspicious of. The next day, when the ClueFinders return to the tomb site, they discover that the professor and artifacts have gone missing. While chasing a bug, Socrates accidentally uncovers a secret room behind the wall. Inside, the ClueFinders find an ancient scroll, which they take to Cairo to have translated. When they arrive, Socrates spots a cat and chases it into Ramses' antique shop, revealing their soon-to-be translator. Socrates accompanies the ClueFinders to the Nile Kingdom after translating the scroll. Then, they proceed to the Ancient Pyramid to confront Seth, the awakened Egyptian god of chaos instigated by Alistair Loveless. After the ClueFinders defeat Seth, Socrates is last seen on an airplane leaving Egypt with the rest of the ClueFinders, wearing a disguise to hide the fact that he's a dog so he doesn't have to ride with the cargo.

Throughout the game, Socrates serves as the player's guide. The player can click on Socrates for help during activities.

The ClueFinders Reading Adventures Ages 9-12: Mystery of the Missing Amulet[]

Socrates has a brief, non-verbal cameo in the game's epilogue. After the other ClueFinders return to Earth from Millennia with the Amulet of Life, they give it to Socrates for him to bury.

Other[]

Although Socrates is not a character in several ClueFinders games, I can still access his profile in LapTrap's Club file. However, it was removed in later games.
