What players say
This game series has been with me since I was a small child, I love it dearly; my moms, sister, and me would play it religiously for years. I have many fond memories of sitting around an ancient family computer, she worked at AMD so we got discounts and new tech faster than most; and this one will always have my favorite game memories: from the story to the beautiful crystals at the end (iykyk).

I actually realise I never played this one and its a shame, because its fairly strong. The setting is more spooky mystery with a tad of action than educational crime solving, but I felt it was well written with good characters and finally some more 3d animations. I recommend it full price!
I don't know why, out of all the Nancy Drew games, this one is especially nostalgic to me
