Summary: Better & Better!
Review: The Nancy Drew Mystery Games from Her Interactive are superb, and everything, from the graphics to the mystery, just keeps getting better and better.
The graphics in this game are realistic and detailed, from spilled popcorn to projector gears.
The characters are excellent, and Nancy's responses can be humorous.
All together, this mystery weaves a suspenseful tale of excitement, danger, and (of course) mystery.
I highly recommend this game and all other Nancy Drew Mystery Games.

Summary: My daughter and I had a blast solving this game!
Review: I'm always looking for fun things to do together with my daughter (age 10), and this game sure fills the bill. We played it over the long Thanksgiving weekend, and it kept us on the edge of our seats the whole time. My husband actually joined in too, after he came in to see what all the laughing and shrieking was about. I'm getting my daughter one of the other Nancy Drew games for Christmas (or am I getting it for me?)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outstanding
Review: I have played every single Nancy Drew game and I have to say that 'Final Scene' is without a doubt the best. This game kept me on the edge of my seat! I am an aunt of 9 nieces and you can bet what they are getting for Christmas. They think these games rock too. Well done!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Could I give it anything less than 5 stars?
Review: Like the other Nancy Drew games, "The Final Scene" was great. In each Nancy Drew game, you get to be the famous detective and solve a mystery. It's not easy, though. You have to search for clues and find secret passageways. You maneuver through the game with your mouse, using arrows and magnifying glasses on the screen -- and sometimes, trinkets and trapdoors can only be found by viewing them at a particular angle. This allows for hours of fun -- or hours of being stuck, whatever. (This is what the HerInteractive site's message boards are for!)

The graphics in this game are incredible. The people look 3-D and although they do look a bit robotic, they're realistic and believable. The attention to detail is amazing as well. The scenery is beatiful -- there are cool things to look at that don't really pertain to your mystery, but then again, you don't KNOW for sure if they do or not -- it's always good to keep your eyes open and remember where certain things are.

The dialogue is clever and witty, and often funny and silly (but in a good way). My only complaint on this subject is the fact that sometimes the dialogue doesn't make sense -- sometimes a character speaking to you will tell you to try doing something you've already done, and Nancy (you) will say "OK, I'll try that" -- when in fact you've already done it! Obviously the game's programming can't handle ANY eventuality. But whatever. This is a small thing and it is a small annoyance at the most.

"The Final Scene" is so fun. All I can ask for in the next Nancy Drew game (and please, PLEASE keep making them!) is more puzzles (there were about five in this game; all pleasantly challenging) and, also, give us more game time! The box says it can take over 20 hours. I did the senior level and had it completed in 6 or 7. Then again, I'm in my twenties. (Yes! Adults, do not be ashamed to play this! I have gotten several of my friends hooked! However, I've also played one of the other games with a 10-year-old... she needed a little help but did pretty well on her own, so this is for all ages!) Also, like many people, I've played the other four games -- so I guess after awhile you get the hang of the games and that makes them go faster.

Synopsis: if you want many hours of good, mind-boggling and exciting fun, buy this game. Nancy Drew rocks!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Thrilling Mystery.
Review: After playing all 5 Nancy Drew games, I can fairly say that this is one of the best. I do not think that it was the best for one reason: in the other mysteries, what you had to do next was either clear cut, or Bess, George or Ned would give you hints as to what to do next. In this game, they were a bit tougher on you, giving you clues such as "Start questioning your subjects...see if they have plausible alibis" but once you did...they said the same thing (not telling you that your subject had more to say.)Other than that, it was thrilling and intriguing. Once it DID get started it was so exciting that things just rolled along. It was a great deal of fun, and I will definitely play it again and again.

Some hints:
1. Never leave a room unsearched, anything that you find can further your investigation, and if it doesn't at least you will be sure that you didn't miss anything.
2. Try and get around your suspects, read into their personal lives...do what detectives do best (snoop ;-) )
3. Lastly, trust no one except you, Bess, George and Ned. Never let all of your hopes ride on the innocence of one suspect. Things are never as they seem in Nancy's world, so try and act the same way towards it in your own.

Happy Gaming!

Summary: Best Game So Far!!!
Review: I've played all the Nancy Drew games and like this one the best. You see, Nancy has to help find her friend Maya who has been kidnapped. The other characters in the game are good. This game is great because it is a little bit different from the other ones. The start of the game has you watch a kind of movie that tells you what the story is and you realize what the mystery is and that is very excited. My mom didn't play the game but she thought it was really good when I had her look at things or needed help.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Nancy Drew The Final Scene
Review: Game was interesting and fun however, had some parts that were a little hard for children. Some things in the game were not good for some young children to see or hear. Make sure you review the game before letting your daughter play it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Mystery #5 Times Better Than The First
Review: I've played all the Nancy Drew games, and think this is the best one so far. Like most of the Nancy games you explore a mysterious, often creepy environment, and pickup interesting facts along the way. There are always little surprises, that might make you flinch a little, when they pop up. And don't forget if you're in a pinch to use a lifeline and phone a friend!

The Graphics are very good on the Nancy games, and offer enough challenges to keep older players interested, while not overwhelming younger players at the same time.

I really like the diversity offered in the Nancy Drew games, it's nice to see people of all different backgrounds represented, something usually lacking in most other games.

With the book and necklace this collectors set would make a great gift for any Nancy fan, or is a nice way to introduce new players to the Nancy games.

Can't wait for the next one!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: NANCY DREW CRACKS A CASE OF DANGER BEHIND THE CURTAIN!
Review: The fifth Nancy Drew Interactive Mystery, 'The Final Scene,' was very entertaining and challenging; 10 times better than the book. Nancy's mission, however, is much more desperate: A friend of hers is kidnapped. But what did the kidnapper want with Maya? She was just interviewing the star of 'Vanishing Destiny' at the Century Cinema, but then she disappeared! What secrets does the theater hold? And why-who?-kidnapped Maya? It's all up to you as you step into Nancy's shoes and make your move against a kidnapper who's determined to keep Maya until the final scene!
