This game has the "old school" hidden objects scenes, so don't expect the cool, new graphics they have out nowadays. Still, the story line kept me interested, and there's something to be said for simplicity. Plus, you could "earn" card games by achieving hearts. It's a very sweet story about a soldier going MIA and his sweetheart at home. It kept me busy for most of the day, so I don't think it deserved all the bad reviews it's getting.
I recommend this game!

I've played this game several times and still find it interesting. In the CE version that I have, you get to collect things to decorate your page, your castle, vampire lore and you get a bonus chapter where you can choose your own ending! My very favorite part, though, is that you get to play BOTH of the main characters. This game cannot be missed!

I wasn't expecting much from this game since it's an "old school" type of HO game, but I was pleasantly surprised! The cool (but very sad) "who done it" storyline, the interesting historical facts and the beautiful music all made for a really fun game!

Even better than the first Nancy Drew Dossier game! You have more options, and there's a great deal more game play. A must have for fans of the Nancy Drew game series, as they use the original Nancy Drew, and there are many character links to other games (even the animals in the lab were featured in other Nancy Drew games). Very fun!!
I recommend this game!

I enjoyed this game because it's simple, yet challenging. Also, I enjoyed the "anti-clutter" advice along the way. It's original and very much a departure from your usual storybook HO games.
I recommend this game!

My daughter and I have played all the Nancy Drew large file games, but this was a nice and lite departure from the usual. It was definitely challenging, given there were no skip or hint buttons (it got kind of tough toward the end). It was quite original, too...like no other hidden object game I've ever played. Plus, there was a cool surprise ending and some funny "blooper" scenes. A fun game!
I recommend this game!

In this game, you get to solve 3 different ghost stories, so it's definitely more bang for your buck! I enjoyed the rooms shifting between past and future, and the effects of the water in the distance. My only criticism would be the lack of map. The monologues ran on a little long, but you can skip those and they'll summarize for you. Was lots of fun!
I recommend this game!

I've played this game several times, and always have a blast with it. I love the rambling story lines of Joe and Tom, and how they involve us (you even get to name the dog). The match 3 and hidden object scenes are fun, too. Watching your farm grow (3 different farms, in fact) is always a good time. This game definitely has it all!
I recommend this game!

Even after playing the entire series, I still go back and play this one...it's still one of the best! Lovely scenes, beautiful music and fun mini-games definitely make this game worth buying! The only short-coming is no map...otherwise, it's perfect!
I recommend this game!

This is one of those old-school hidden object games where it's REALLY tough to find the objects and you have very little hints to go on. Towards the end I was randomly clicking all over the place. That being said, I enjoyed the "choose your own adventure" type story line. I only recommend this to those who are dying to start from the beginning of the "Dream Day" series. Otherwise, I would skip it.
I don't recommend this game.
