Summary: One of the best
Review: This game by far is the most challenging of all the ND games. It's not as scary as Ghost Dogs but by more intricate. There are lots of places to explore and puzzles to solve. The graphics are are excellent and the audio is unbelievable. There are a lot of background noises, (voices at a party, clinking of tools etc.) You will want good speakers for this.
Terrific game!!!! Congratulations Herinteractive!

Summary: not as challenging
Review: I've played all of the Nancy Drew games and found this one to be too easy. My daughter found it a little boring (except for the ending). I would get this as a starter game. If you are a veteran of these games I 'd suggest that you wait until it's on sale.

Summary: it just gets better.
Review: This is the third Nancy Drew game that i have played (the others being treasure in the royal tower and the scarlett hand) and i have to say that its the best one yet. Nancy is off to visit a friend, Katie Firestone. Upon arriving on Katie's boat, she discovers that someone has sabotaged the engine. There are no shortage of suspects on the island, including the owner of the whale museum, the cafe owner and the harbormaster. This game is more complex than its earlier predecessors- nancy now has a cell phone and GPS device. She must navigate a bicycle around town and a kayak in the waters. The puzzles are more difficult, though there is always the option to call bess/george or the hardy boys for a quick solve. Like the other games, you can play it on a junior or senior leve- depending on your gaming skills. Deception island has a more adult feel but kids will enjoy it as well. Get this game if you are a fan of adventure and puzzle games.

Summary: not a good game
Review: i thought that this game was awful.. it was wicked boring and there weren't many places to go and people to see. Mainly you were stuck on the lake and you had a boat to go to like two other places. To me having a lot of places to go is fun and this was not. Me and my friend did it in about 4 hours.. a waste of money and a waste of time, since it was suppose to be at least 21 hours of fun. A much better one i reccomend is Message in a Haunted Mansion. One other awful ones are danger on deception island (which i didn't even finish it was so bad). The others werent as bad though

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!!!!!!!!!

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.

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.

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.

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!
