Summary: The Best Game Yet
Review: I just bought this for my daughters age 10 and 13. They are both so excited about playing it. It is a wonderful fun creative game. I can't believe that they are solving some of your clues with such little information. What great software. Fabulous game.

Summary: Incredible game for girls
Review: Finally a game that not only is designed for girls but is awesome too. My daughters (ages 10, 12 and 14) started playing it and within six hours had about 30 PostIt notes all over the sides of the monitor keeping track of clues to the solving the case. They finally solved the case after about 20 hours of intense teamwork playing and now play the game over again with each of their friends. The installation was so easy my 10 year old did it in about ten minutes on her own. The quality of the game is great and some of the graphics in the game are so real they look like photographs. I just ordered the new Nancy Drew game, "Stay Tuned for Danger" for their Christmas gift and another copy of "Secrets Can Kill" for their nieces Christmas gift.

Summary: Namcy Drew Secrets Can Kill
Review: A wonderful game for girls about age 7 or 8 and up...( I as an adult love this game). You think about it when your not playing and can't wait to come back to it. My 13 year old daughter has been playing it for about 2 years and loves it. Its challenging and really encourages intuitiveness. A great game for all levels of children!

Summary: Secret's Can Kill--and so can these brain teasers
Review: Well, this game was great at first. I found the clues on the bulletin boards and talked to the suspects. But there were many places that were just too hard. I still haven't reached the end of the mystery. I couldn't figure out how to get into the pharmacy. It took me weeks to figure out how to get into the teachers lounge. I think Hal Tanaka did it, but it's hard to be sure. She accused him, and he denied it. No one else will let me talk to them anymore and I have the tape from Jake's locker, but I'm stuck. So, this may be for kids, but it was a little too hard for someone my age, and even for my dad. I'm not saying that you should make it so easy that it's unbearable, but just try to make it less stressful. Hey, it's a great game! I loved the mystery of everything--great music too! I just think it's too hard to get to the bottom of the mystery.

Summary: 32 year old mom (bought it for ME)
Review: Ok, I'm 32, have a small child of my own, and bought this for me. I've always liked Nancy Drew, and always had fantasies of being this sort of detective (like Charlie's Angels, which, uh, I still have dreams at night about)....anyway, this is a totally fun game...I find myself hooked on this and have a hard time putting it away....which my poor daughter can attest to! The reviews stated it took a long time to install, but I seem to remember it taking no longer than any other I have, only a few minutes...I have started with being a Jr. Detective, and I find it quite challenging, and I am a college degreed woman! I've already used the "second chance" feature as I continue to learn how to "be a better sleuth"...I highly recommend it, and am going to purchase the other two games, although from what I understand they do not have some of the latest features in them that this one does. Looking forward to (hopefully) the next one!

Summary: THE BEST NANCY DREW GAME
Review: This game kept me playing all day until 1 o'clock in the morning. It is my favorite Nancy Drew Game. It has a great enviroment, the people look very life like, and the game is also a little frightening. It will keep you playing until the mystery is solved. The game will take you through many challenges and hard puzzels, and will have a big surprise ending. I definetly recomend this game to everyone.

Summary: Superb Puzzle!
Review: This game had great graphics and plenty of things for you to do! Still this game was short because you only have 3 days! It's pressuring, scary, and hard! I'd say it's one of the hardest Nancy Drew games! I only liked 1 character in this game though...still it's a mystery you JUST HAVE to solve!
The story-Nancy Drew has bumped into her old high school friend, Maya Nguyen, who was about to do an interview with the charming Brady Armstrong, actor. But something goes terribly wrong. Just as Maya steps into the room for the interview, someone kidnaps her! The kidnapper threatens to take Maya down with the theater that is being demolished in 3 days unless Nancy stops the demolishion. Nancy is now compelled to crack the amazingly hard puzzle! As she works to uncover the mystery, she meets new suspects such as Brady Armstrong, an amazingly cocky actor, Nick, a young man trying to save the building, Simone, a rude acting agent, and Joseph, an old employee in the projection room. Nancy soon discovers, within the little time she has, secrets from each character and things she never thought would happen!

Summary: Intriguing mystery
Review: The cover says it is for "ages 10 and Up". I would say it is more like ages 12 and up, unless you have a child who stays on the A+ Honor Roll. There is more area and people to cover than the previous games. A positive note, it is ONE disc. That is GOOOOOD. I recall one of the Nancy Drew games having two discs and I had to a lot of switching ... OFTEN. A negative note, this is not a game you can stop playing a week and then get back into. There is a lot of note taking, impressions of personalities to remember, etc. After 5 or more days, you forget small (but vital) things. Yes, I recommend it highly, but not for age 10. I also recommend, if the player is around age 12, to send in the card for the game secrets/manual.... Otherwise, your gamer may end up stuck in a spot or two and is UNABLE to continue on without some vital clue. The manual can be used to help over those rough spots. One more thing, check the system requirements before purchasing. I have heard that some people are trying to play the game on a machine without the requirements listed. (Amazon lists these requirements near the price.) If you don't have the lowest requirements, forget it. It will freeze often.... (IT'S FREE). Then you can go to the chat board where you choose which of the games you are playing, all 6 are listed, and ask questions, leave tips, etc. It won't be long before your post is answered either! Seems as though many people are always there.
