The story · 2002

The story of Secret Agent Squares

Agent Mungo, a mongoose in a trench coat and night-vision goggles, peeked around the corner of every box. The back panel looked like red scribbles until you held up the included decoder lens, which revealed a secret mission. The missions were things like finish your cereal. Kids completed them anyway and reported back to headquarters, which was the fridge.

Fun fact

The decoder lens also got tested on the Sunday comics, where kids found absolutely nothing but kept looking.
