History VideoGame / MonsterQuest

* BigfootSasquatchAndYeti: Subject of the final mission, where one was sighted by campers and even raided their camp. One trapper you interview even says he used to try and prove the existence of it and even trapped one, but when it looked at him in the eye, he changed his mind and let it go free. [[spoiler:Its even hinted that it may actually exist, seeing how the evidence you collect is an inconclusive and bears no existence to known animals]].

'''''Monster Quest''''' is a 2008 point and click HiddenObjectGame video game made by Big Fish Games, based upon the Creator/TheHistoryChannel show of the same name. You play as a guy working for an organisation also called [=MonsterQuest=] as he goes around the world investigating five sightings of mysterious creatures. Its divided between a typical Hidden Object game and minigames at the end of each level, where you analyse evidence to find out the truth.

* RedHerring: There are models of dinosaurs [[note]]Okay, technically only one's a dinosaur (specifically ''[[UsefulNotes/StockDinosaursSaurischianDinosaurs Allosaurus]]''), the other is a ''Pteranodon''[[/note]] in your office and a T. rex skeleton is behind your monitor, so you'd expect this to [[{{Foreshadowing}} foreshadow]] one mission to be about LivingDinosaurs; helps the show has featured[[https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2icdyt the Ropen]] of New Guinea and [[https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7x2tqz the Mokele-Mbembe]] of the African Congo. Nope, only five missions and none of them are such (unless you count El Monstro, whose model is represented as a plesiosaur).

* ScoobyDooHoax: Two of the monsters turn out to be this, though they're a bit more benign and harmless then most examples: [[spoiler:The mystery of El Monstro turns out to be in part one to attract tourists and make some cash, while the myth of the Dark Wing was spread by a group of british college students to keep alive the memory of their fraternity's founder.]]
