This was the first Nancy Drew game in the popular long-running series and was produced for teenage girls and designed to teach both problem-solving and interactive computer skills while being entertained. But adults will also enjoy playing this game. Based on one of the famous Nancy Drew adolescent mystery novels, this story has been updated to play like a situation in the present time, and has current ethical problems of teenagers which it addresses and positive values it promotes. You play, of course, Nancy, who is investigating a murder that has occurred at the local high school. To solve it, you must not only gather clues and find hidden messages, you must also converse with a variety of other students who knew the victim, each of whom has something to hide. A first-person, point-and-click game with animated 2D characters in a detailed 3D environment, the game can be played at 3 levels of difficulty: junior detective, senior detective and master detective. When you get stuck you can call on your best friends for helpful hints and additional clues. The game is both linear and logical. Nancy also stays at her Aunt Eloise's castle in Florida. Many objects can be zoomed in on to examine clues. Over 75 cryptic puzzles must be solved before the killer can be unmasked. In August, 2010 a Remastered Edition was released with updated graphics and sound, characters, puzzles and more - plus a brand new ending. | ||
