Love Carol Reed games and this is an excellent addition. They truly keep getting better and better, and really stand out in a sea of mediocre games. They make we want to travel to Sweden. I can't wait for the next one!
I recommend this game!

I adore Carol Reed games! I have played all of them and they just keep getting better. I love the realism and recurring characters. I feel that I am getting a guided tour of a beautiful Swedish town.They are definitely not your typical games and that is what makes them so special. Adults who love reading mysteries would appreciate them the most, I think.
I was very pleasantly surprised by this game. I loved the theme and the beautiful, realistic graphics, no junkpiles to sort through. I would like to see more of these types of games.
This game is definitely not up to the same standards as previous Nancy Drew games. I have played all of them, except the most recent one, and I feel that there has been a gradual decline in quality, especially the storyline and the size of the areas to investigate. I miss the natural scenery to explore, hidden passages and learning interesting new skills. Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake and The Legend of Shadow Ranch are the best, in my opinion.
I am a big fan of the Nancy Drew series and this game is definitely one of the better ones. The scenery, characters, etc., are top-notch.
I recommend this game!

This game is great, as are all the other Carol Reed games. They are very different from the standard games and that is what makes them so special. The scenery and storylines are very realistic and wonderful. Start with the older ones and continue to the latest. You will want more. I do. Give them a try!
I recommend this game!
