Summary: Surprise!
Review: The ending of this game was really surprising! Oh my goodness, you would never GUESS who the culprit was! Otherwise, this game is great. Why? There is a lot of action and so many surprises! The setting is in an old theater. There are lots of secret rooms and passages, you know what I'm saying? The graphics are first class. Buy one today. Believe me, IT IS WORTH THE MONEY. There are discouraging moments, but none of the puzzles are hard! (I was playing on junior detective) Please let me know if my review was helpful or not. Thanks!

Summary: The Best Game Ever!
Review: This game was very exciting for me. It got me on the edge of my seat, and I almost freaked when I found out who the culprit was! I recommend this to you strongly! It is the best Nancy Drew game yet! Although the hallways may seem long, they are nothing when you get the game straight and nothing compared to the school hallways in Secrets Can Kill. There are so many great puzzles to solve. Go Nancy Drew, keep up the awesome work! Please tell me if this review was helpful or not. Thanks!

Summary: Could this be better than Message in a Haunted Mansion?
Review: Trite but true, this could be the best Nancy Drew Mystery yet. Although the storyline is becoming a bit formulaic,(Nancy is trapped at a deserted log cabin this time,)it still has all of the right ingredients. Downright scary dogs, several would be suspects, a spooky cemetary, and a forest maze combine to give just the right blend of spine-tingling fun. Best of all, they have speeded up play by allowing Nancy to transition from one time frame to another easily. All she does is start up the stairs of the cabin, and a handy alarm clock automatically pops up.

Summary: My hand is still aching from traipsing all over the castle
Review: This is the weakest of the Nancy Drew, Her Interactive Series. After playing Message in a Haunted Mansion I had high hopes for thrills and chills in The Royal Tower, however there was little excitement to be found in this game. The castle was far too spread out. Three full floors of dull hallways to walk through in order to search for clues; left my mouse hand feeling numb, and my detective instincts feeling bored. Hey, I know its a castle and has to be on the large side, but for crying out loud, jauntering about from one floor to another, up and down staircases, over and over just left me more frustrated than anything else. If you want to maximize your Nancy Drew fun, check out Message in a Haunted Mansion or Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake. Both of these titles have a better pace, and creepier feel.

Summary: GREAT!
Review: This was a family game that our family played together almost every night. My kids (ages 12 and 9) LOVED it! We can't wait to get another Nancy Drew game.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AWESOME NEW NANCY DREW!
Review: This game was great! It's right up there with all the other Nancy Drew games from HerInteractive. The best part is that if you get stuck, it's possible to get help from other people online, instead of sitting at your computer, all frustrated. As Nancy, you go to your friends house on Moon Lake, and find she's not there because she's been stalked by "ghost" dogs (who are pretty scary when they jump out at you)! This game was a lot of fun, but shouldn't be too hard to beat for anyone who has played the previous Nancy Drew games!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lets you in on a lot of French History!
Review: I really liked this game because of the history. I really like Marie Antoinette, and that's why this is great. It's sort of 2 in one. You learn about French backgrounds, and you have fun. I learned alot from this game. Now I'm making good marks in history! This is a great game. Plus there is this huge diamond at the end. P.S. Don't trust Lisa, and don't tell her anything, especially, that you broke into the library. SHE'S THE CULPRIT!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Really good!
Review: I think this one was a really good game! Very enjoyable. It had a couple of pretty hard puzzles and some pretty scary events. TURN DOWN YOUR SPEAKERS!!! Haha. The plot was good and despite the fact that you're couped up in an old theater, there's lots to explore and it's pretty fun! It's not that hard to find out who the culprit is though. At least, not for me. Good graphics, better than the previous games. Always worth buying and playing this game, of course! :)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Even better graphics! But new additions to learning...eh..
Review: I loved the new great even more realistic graphics! But I did hate the quizzes that you have to do in the temple of the museum. I liked how you travelled and you did learn quite a bit about the Mayan culture because of the quizzes, but it was frustrating having to go back and forth around the museum to find answers. Pretty freaky too! As usual of course. It was a good story and plot and the game was of course fun like always! They also give a laptop for you to use so you can keep track of notes easier and you don't have to waste a bunch of paper! But I hate how you have to scroll ALL the way down just to look at the lastest notes you have! Despite all the bad parts, which is very little, it was still a good game and very enjoyable! :)
