Game Description
Step into a mysterious world where you'll see the unseen in this fantastic adventure based on the Spiderwick Chronicles book series and movie. Explore the enchanted Spiderwick home while playing as any of the three Grace children - Jared, Simon, or Mallory - plus their tiny friend Thimbletack.

Enter found objects into your Field Guide to give your character new abilities, earn new items, or discover hints. Mini-games sprinkled in along the way bring added excitement that can be enjoyed by one or two players.
