Summary: This is my favorite one!!!
Review: I have only played 5 of the Nancy Drew games. I can say this is my favorite one yet! It starts out that Katie Firestone's boat was vandalized. Several suspects such as Holt Scotto, Jenna Deblin, And Andy Jason. At first I thought it was Katie Firestone. Very cool game and I just can't wait for Nancy Drew and the Secret of Shadow Ranch!!!!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great!
Review: Being a north-westerner myself, I found the graphics amazingly accurate. The plot is amazing with many twists and puzzles. Unlike earlier games, the puzzles were hard but not frustrating.
I love the new cell phone, computer, and food options! They aren't brand new, since they have been availible in more recent games, but it brings more realism in to Deception island.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Carolyn Keene would be proud!
Review: I have played every one of the Nancy Drew games that Her Interactive has put out so far, and I feel this one has the best graphics. As for the plot, all of the games' have been great. The thing I really loved about this game was how real it was. In it, you (as Nancy) kayac through the sea, and you really get to see everything as if you were really in a kayac, and not just at home. Below I have listed the pros and cons to this game:
Pros:
In this game, you get to kayac through the sea.
The graphics in this game are magnificent!
You have live interaction with the orca whale.
You get to bike all over Snake Horse Harbor.
Nancy has a laptop journal, which is much easier to read then her old paper one.
The new cell phone mode makes it a lot easier to call people, because you don't have to go to a specific place to go and use the phone.
I played this game non-stop and it still took me four or five days.
Installation of this game is very simple.

Cons:
The music in this game is louder than it is in the other games, and if you turn down your computer speakers, then you can't hear what people are saying in the game.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The Least of Nancy Drew
Review: The game is easily the least challenging of the Nancy Drew games (best were Scarlet Hand, Treasure in the Royal Tower, The Final Scene and Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake). The puzzles are too few and too easy, and basically you just wait until a clue or necessary game piece is given to you instead of having to really figure out where to look for it. The ending is a REAL disappointment, especially compared with the more exciting endings of earlier games. And Bess obsessing over Matt calling her is SOOOO lame. Best features are Nancy's new cell phone and the To Do list that can be checked off.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: NeVeRtHeLeSs, HaRd!
Review: This game was okay. It was really short. It had too many puzzles that were very difficult to figure out, but the ending was worth it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great adventure game- finally one for girls
Review: This is a great adventure game for girls- it finally gives them a heroine to portray. Nancy Drew is the sleuth who has to find the mystery that surrounds her when she is trapped by a snowstorm in a ski lodge. She is surrounded by suspects and mysterious happenings. She has to find the treasure and solve the mystery.

Like all of the Nancy Drew games- you can play on a junior or senior level, depending on your skill and experience level. There are built in hints (from your friends ned, bess and george) and a second chance option if you mess up.

Best of all, there is an educational lesson built in as you learn about marie antoinette and the French revolution.

The game itself is quite straightforward- the plot moves along with hints from the suspects. Some of the puzzles are difficult to solve, but there is always hints that are just a phone call away.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Run Away
Review: This game was just plain bad. A filler between the good games. You did not get to move around the park and explore, there were no good puzzles, we finished this game in a couple of hours. The final insult was the abrupt and non-sense ending. Just close your eyes and pretend it never happened. You could start with one of the earlier games or jump over this thing and move on to Danger on Deception Island.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Secret In the Royal Tower
Review: I don't normally play PC games, but I bought this one for my 11 year old daughter's 2nd N. Drew game and I loved it. The graphics are wonderful and the game teaches history about Marie Antoinette and the French Revolution. The ending is awesome, I was on the edge of my seat and it gave us both a feeling of accomplishment to finish it. (Although we had to use a cheat sheet and I'm 51 years old...couldn't figure it out by ourselves. Story line/plot well written, video/audio are the best. A great investment for kids & adults (and I am picky about what I spend my $$$ on.

Rating: 5 stars
