If you’re like me and you're excited to see a new Nancy Drew game, I hate to burst your bubble… but I really wouldn’t bother with this one. Here’s hoping that this isn’t indicative of the way the franchise is heading. I was disappointed enough that I almost didn’t bother to finish and that speaks pretty poorly of a $20 game. The lack of coherent narrative made the game hard to navigate, leaving me never entirely sure what I was supposed to be doing next, and while trial and error got me through it wasn’t really worth the effort. Also missing is the creepiness that makes some of the other games so enjoyable (line Shadow at the Water’s Edge or Thornton Hall). The thin plot elements don’t fit together to make a coherent story in fact, there is almost no mystery.
Sadly, this is the worst Nancy Drew game I’ve played (and I’ve played all the ones available for Windows).
