The theme of twister is not that exciting to me. Again, Nancy is driving in bird eye view and is annoying, there're so many cars in the driveway and they're all bad drivers! Pa is not nice to talk to, the others treat Nancy like she's their maid. Puzzles are very difficult and mostly chores. Definitely not my favorite.
I don't recommend this game.
When a friend gets kidnapped in a historic theater, you, as Nancy Drew, are plunged into a desperate race against the clock!

Again, one of the best 'old' ND games. I like how Nancy's urgency in finding her friend in this game. The characters are unique, with interesting personality, not very likeable, but making it difficult to predict who is the real culprit. Being an old game, the game is long and have quite a few places to explore. Play this game and you'll see what I mean^^
I recommend this game!

When I first heard that this game will take place in Japan, I was so excited (especially the trailer that shows in the previous game), the game itself is creepy but too bad there're quite a few 'holes'. First, the characters don't speak Japanese accent except Miwako who is voiced over by a Japanese. You will find it weird that Yumi pronounces 'Nancy-chan' like 'Nancy-chen', Nancy's offensive attitude like asking over and over about how a person died is really not likable. But the good thing is, you learn about Japanese culture and make Japanese bentos. The music is good and the game is long. This game is creepy and makes you think you're in 'the Grudge'.
I recommend this game!

One of the best ND games ever was and always will be. I love learning about French revolution and Marie Antoinette in this game and the castle have quite a lot of places to explore. The length of the game is quite short but the storyline is great and you will surely find yourself replaying the game over and over.
I recommend this game!

I haven't played the original Secret Can Kill game so I can't compare between the two, but this one is super short so I guess the original one must be, too. The characters are not very interesting, sadly, and none of them are sociable. The culprit is quite predictable. The puzzle is easy, a plus for me who doesn't really enjoy puzzle games. Not my most favorite but always a good one for replaying.
I recommend this game!

It is one of my earliest ND game that I played and still my favorite. I love how I can learn about ancient history and the museum is exciting. The game takes place in Washington DC and I like it if ND game takes place in America (despite the fact that I am not American ^^;;, it makes it looks more original. The ending is scary and left me panic looking for solution. This is the game that I will keep on playing for very long time.

This is probably my very least favorite ND game. Puzzles, puzzles, puzzles, and they're not at all interesting! conversing and playing with monkeys instead of snooping, crawling on rocks like a spider like in 90s video game, bird eye view on driving, finding treasure, sailing.. this game is terrible in almost all aspect. George spends all of her time trying to fix the telephone (and not at all helpful), there is basically no suspect in the game, two if you include the excessively annoying parrot. HER Interactive tries to bring old characters from their past games but they turn out to be boring and very annoying. I play this game only once and I don't think of ever replaying this game.
I don't recommend this game.
In a house full of trap doors and secret tunnels and suspicious fires, one misstep means Nancy won't stand a ghost of a chance!

Although there are many ND games out there, nothing beats this one in creepiness (well, other than Shadow at Water;s Edge, which has one of the scariest atmosphere in ND games). This one is truly original. I like it that there's seance (and that ND is potrayed dark in that scene), the characters move robotic, and you can't make many conversations with them, but you're basically on your own snooping around the house and 'ghosts' pop out from the corner of your eye in many parts of the game. Exciting, and original.
Play as Nancy Drew and find an unearthly artifact before it falls into the wrong hands!

At first I was excited to hear that this game will take place in New Orleans... There're some hoodoos and gumbos involved making it feels more original but too bad there're not many places to explore and your time are mostly revolves in Bruno's house and his cemetery. Plus there is no daylight. I hate spraying on the wasps.. the idea of switching back and forth between Bess and Nancy is interesting at first, but I wish there's just Nancy doing all the snooping. The atmosphere of the game is creepy, but not enough to make me jump from my seat.. I feel that this game is a bit short, but the puzzles are fun and quite original. An exciting game to play.
I recommend this game!
Join Nancy Drew as she goes undercover to expose the truth behind the calamitous production of a cursed Hollywood remake!

This game is great for me because I am always a beginner, ND is usually about adventure game, but this one is more like a HOG, and it's exciting for a change. The theme of pharaoh and Egypt is exciting, and you can also guess who's the culprit at the end of the game. The storyline flows quite well and sometimes you really need to put your thinking cap on as you're trying to pair objects. It is fun game and I recommend you try it ^^
I recommend this game!
