Summary: Good but not the best.
Review: This is the second Nancy Drew game that I've played (Treasure in the Royal Tower was my first) I thought this game was good, but not nearly as good as the other one. There aren't nearly as many places to explore, and I finished this game pretty quickly, while the other one took me days and days. It's also not nearly as exciting as the other one. Overall though, I would reccomend it... but it's a letdown from the previous game I played.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A five star museum.
Review: The game Secret of the Scarlet Hand is a fabulous game! The museum setting is amazing. You learn about Myan history and art. It is such a fun setting. The characters are perfect for the game. You feel like you are in the museum. All of the Nancy Drew games are creative, fun and educational games. I can't help but play when my kids aren't watching. The problem is you don't want to stop until the mystery is solved. This is one of the greatest games yet, it even moves ahead of my favorite, Treasure in the Royal Tower. I can't wait to see where you will go in future games.

Summary: Ghost Dogs rock..........
Review: What a supurb game....It is so much fun to be Nancy and spend your day as Nancy.....I feel like I am at the lake...I thought the dogs were "scary" at first,,,,, because you feel like you are there in the cabin. But they are pretty cool after the initial game play with them.....You can go outside safely.....Its a great game, I highly recommend it for any kids over about age 8...

Summary: Get in on the Secret
Review: With a new mystery to solve you, Nancy Drew, must explore a museum and learn about the ancient Mayan legends. Definately a great game for sleuths of all ages. That is, if you're up to it!
The various clues and puzzles are challenging and the personalities of the suspicious characters will keep you on the edge of your seat. Her Interactive has done it yet again; Secret of the Scarlet Hand is another chance to let your investigational skills shine, meet new people, explore new areas, and enjoy superb graphics.

Summary: Very Fun!
Review: My son (age 9) and I play the Nancy Drew games together. All the games are fun. They are mystery games in which you have to find clues to help Nancy solve the mystery. The details are great and the people look more and more realistic. The game does not look cheesy or cheap. There is a help feature. You can use the telephone in the game to ask your friends questions if you are stumped. But, they don't give you the answer. They give you hints about what to do next or what to find. There are some different levels you can choose before starting the game. (Junior, Senior, Master) The box says it is for girls age 10 and up. In my opinion, these fun mystery games are for anyone, any age. The Final Scene is about a movie set in which one of the stars gets threats and you have to find clues and talk to people to help solve the mystery. We usually spend about an hour a day playing the game. It lasts for about 2 weeks this way. The game is done very thoroughly and well done.

As with all Nancy Drew games this one is a hit. Also, The Final Scene was a bit more tricky than some others. Keep in mind that if you are a first time Nancy Drew gamer then you'll be a little confused in the beginning. Once you play one you'll have the "Nancy Drew knowledge" to play the rest. Basically the people speak to you and you go find clues and use the telephone for help. Pay attention to all details in objects and clues because you might need the information for a code/project later in the game. If you like mysteries and finding clues then you will love this game. After you've got some experience, try playing Nancy Drew - Haunted Mansion...our favorite. A couple years ago we bought Haunted Mansion and have been playing Nancy Drew games ever since. We've played them all besides the newest one...Moon Dogs. HAVE FUN!

Summary: Great New Mystery
Review: Just finished Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake and this mystery is terrific!!! I really enjoyed the puzzles and the challenge of solving them. Very ingenious using the dogs information to solve some of the puzzles. Can't wait for the next mystery. I have played all the games so far.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Just finished playing
Review: This is the first of the ND series that I've played without having to look up cheats a hundred times. Unlike the previous adventures, there were several places (not just one) where Nancy was caught in a "second chance" situation - I think that makes it more exciting. I played the Senior Detective and only got really stuck twice - otherwise the hints were pretty helpful. This probably isn't the game for the very experienced gamer, but if you have played and enjoyed any previous ND games, you will not be disappointed here. It's low on violence and high on creative thinking. I wish there were more female oriented adventure games like this series. Have fun with it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Nancy's Best Game Yet
Review: I just finished this game and it was awesome. The game is suspensful and filled with great puzzels and hidden rooms. You'll love exploring beautiful woods, meeting interesting characters, hearing the calm sounds of the forest and digging up pieces of Moon Lake's colorful history. There's lots of updates, including the ability for Nancy to "examine" certain things in her inventory. Also, Nancy now has a PDA that helps you keep track of notes. Also, I thought the background music was very well done. If you've played and enjoyed Nancy Drew games in the past, you'll love this one!
