One of the worst games i purchased

I started out liking this game when I could play free for an hour. However, you don't run into the problems until well over an hour has been played. I am stuck on a level and have no way to find out where i am going wrong. I do not like games where you can't find a solution, especially after spending several hours on a level. It does not make it extra fun -- it's frustrating and if I could, i would advise people not to buy.
I don't recommend this game.

I'm on a laptop with no attached mouse. The very first level, they tell you to use your mouse wheel and do stuff. I could not fix this issue as i don't have a mouse and don't have a workaround. I can't progress in the game because i have to do what the person says but i can't do what she says because I don't have the mouse wheel.
I don't recommend this game.

While I enjoyed the little bit that I could play, I could not finish the game due to all the bugs.....characters would do their tasks but then not drop off the load/haul.....so characters lumbering would not drop off their lumber....characters gone fishing for gold would not return their gold.....characters gone farming would not return food....Also several characters were named the same thing -- if you had a lot of characters, you would have five Mary's, 3 Toms, 2 Dicks, and 16 Harry's. The game had good potential, but sadly it lacked in design and coding. Also the language barriers between foreign developers and an American audience left a lot of questions as to how to complete most tasks. If I were you, I would pass on this game.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is probably one of my favorite ND games -- I just wish that they could redo some of the graphics and make it more new. However, overall, this was a great game. Some of the games were hard to understand......Like the hiker and the yeti AND the slugs. In the slugs, i didn't understand (i.e., it wasn't clear that the first symbol needed one slug and the second needed two. That wasn't really made clear until i consulted a walkthrough. The yeti, well, you just have to get lucky. But on the bright side, there were none of those evil arcade games (except for the yeti -- and i don't really consider than an arcade game). You should get some paper and a pencil and write down the names of the dolls and something descriptive for them. You will also need to pay attention in the mine -- so keep that paper/pencil ready. The saddest thing is that i didn't know where any easter eggs were..........This game is short if you just shoot right through -- but if you take your time and look at everything, it seems to be more like a normal-length ND.
I recommend this game!

This game should be played first or second in your ND Game Playing life. I enjoyed looking for the coins (I got to find 220). The puzzles weren't difficult and my favorite part was no marble/action games that drive logical people crazy. The game is short, so it will disappoint on a "length" level to more seasoned ND players. But the short games allow you to get done in a few hours.....The ending is no surprise if you pay attention to the game. I did notice that if I didn't select the correct order of questions when questioning the various suspects, I never got certain information. So pay attention to the order in which you ask the questions of your suspects.
Have fun playing.....
I recommend this game!

This is a perfect game to start playing the Nancy Drew series....The game is quite quick (which can be an advantage if you don't have several hours to sit and play and will forget where you left off). The ending happens all of a sudden and you are't expecting it -- so I never got to check Nancy's computer ToDo List to ensure that everything had been done. However, I assumed that the checklist was completed because the game ended. The hardest part of the game was the Barnacle Blaster. Just keep playing it and do it sooner rather than later so you can get it out of the way. I am usure what the point was to seeing the carousel horses' names when we didn't need to know them -- and why did we need to see the hole where the lead horse had been -- it just seemed like a waste since there was no clue there. The flag game was the best -- I played it several times. Again, this is a good game for beginners --- loved it.
I recommend this game!

Terrific game -- there were two hard parts, but for the most part, if you like snow and find yourself playing in summertime, it's a lot of fun. I enjoyed the wolf and the geese/wolf game but had a hard time with the ending. There was no bar on my screen that implied how to get the villian to wreck the snowmobile. So I had to consult a walkthrough to see how to finish. But overall, I enjoyed this wholeheartedly
I recommend this game!

Basically, you have to find things on the ground like mushrooms and eggs and crawdads and things like that -- so keep on the lookout. Also, there may be gold around some stones. Because everything is so TINY it makes it hard to see these things. I accidentally clicked on one of these and that is how I learned that you have to do that -- unfortunately the game doesn't tell you -- you have to discover it. Otherwise, it's a hoot. Enjoy playing.
I recommend this game!
