Fun but confusing
I really enjoyed playing this game. It really does pass the time. My only problem with the game is that sometimes you don't know what to do next. I guess they want you to try to talk to everyone and look at everything but some steps I completely missed until I went over the game guide. I recommend getting the game guide or using the discussion boards at the publishers website. I'll be buying more of these for sure.
very fun
WOW this game i would have to say hits the top 5 of all my games.( trust me i have alot!) It was so fun and colorful. It was very creative and interesting. There were alot of puzzles! They were practicly coming out of your ears. Also there was alot of excitment and there were lots for you to do. You never felt Oh man there is nothing to do. The best part was sneaking around under tunnels to find things. So I would have to say this is my fav. One more thing. If you are into scary games like blakmoor or crystall skull and feel that all the other none scary games are boring than dont get this game!
Really Short
I'm not sure what they were thinking. I've played five of the Nancy Drew games and this one was significantly and very noticeably short compared to the others. Otherwise, a fun game.
