 - Not Exactly What I ExpectedI was really interested in a mystery type game with Nancy Drew in it, especially since I grew up on the Nancy Drew mystery books. I guess I expected too much from this game ... like more real clues and more "sleuthing." After fiddling around with the repetitive "games" for several hours, I decided to save the game and shut it down and couldn't find any way to save it. Most games like this have a "save" feature. The "manual" wasn't any help, either. A couple of days later, I got back to it and it wanted to start all over again from the beginning....ugh! I haven't touched it since. I figure I'll trade it in at "Game Stop" next time I pass there. It wasn't what I had hoped for, but children might find it more entertaining. I'd love to see some good mind boggling mysteries, with, perhaps, Hercule Poirot or Sherlock Holmes? Even this Nancy Drew one would have been terrific if more thought had been put into it. Apparently, it was designed for kids and not adults. Oh well. I guess I suckered in for the Nancy Drew name and the interesting picture on the box. Rating:  - 1st Nancy Drew game on DSi was excited when Nancy Drew came on DS. this is a fun game like the other Nancy Drew games. but it does have some negatives. like it's short, Nancy probably doesn't look like you think she supposed to and you can't use your inventory like other Nancy Drew games. but otherwise it's fun and i would recommend this game to any Nancy Drew fan. Rating:  - Over before it starts....I'm a huge fan of Nancy Drew and wanted so badly to love this game. Alas, it was not meant to be. By the time I figured out some of the mini-games, (which you can beat by randomly banging on buttons) Nancy is solving the mystery and its over. The dialogue screens become really boring with the same image flashing over and over again. The one thing I found fabulous with this game, was that Nancy, in not so many words, told her boyfriend she wasn't giving up solving mysteries to dote and spend all of her time with him... I had to laugh... the original Nancy Drew from the 30's packed her dad's revolver, they kept that same spunk by letting the boyfriend know it wasn't always about him. Rating:  - Nancy Drew for a 9 year oldI didn't buy it for myself but for my granddaughter. I can say she hardly stopped playing it after she opened the gift. Even got up extra early to resume playing in the morning. It installed with no problems. Rating: - HATED ITI Purchased this game and I wish I hhadn't It is soooo easy and when the mystery is solved thats it. I even wrote to the maker of the game to ask if this was a joke and maybe there was some kind of hidden games, they never responded. now i know why. PLEASE DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! DON'T BUY THIS GAME
