Guess What I got in the Mail?!?!?!?

Today in the mail I got Nancy Drew: Secrets Can Kill (The Original) and Nancy Drew: Stay Tuned For Danger, both brand new, never opened, and still in that brand new seal! I'm very excited and I'm including pictures of what it looked like after I pulled it out of the package in a later blog... maybe tomorrow.

Nancy Drew: Secrets Can Kill Remastered Game Review

I really liked this game, almost like the original Nancy Drew game called Nancy Drew: Secrets Can Kill (1998). I understand why they would redo this game for obvious reasons. The animation on the original game were cartoons, and they redid it to have more of a life-like feature with the 3-D. Now I understand that it's a remastered version so they have to keep just about everything the same, except for the ending and the 3-D images. Here's the thing, they should of got rid of at least one hallway, with these hallways you always find yourself getting lost. I can honestly say that I've never gotten lost in the hallways of the game, but I just need to look at the setting of the game and I basically remember it from then on. I will admit though, that there were some parts of the game where as I go along in the halls, as I'm walking I always had to think hard and ahead of where I'm supposed to turn so I don't mess up. After you've played it a little longer it gets surprisingly easy to navigate through the hallways. So since this was kind of the game that started it all... kind of. I have to say I really enjoyed this game a lot, and would recommend it to other people.

Nancy Drew: Alibi in Ashes Game Review

Nancy Drew: Alibi in Ashes was probably one of the most Nancy Drew games that sounded exciting, and everybody could not wait for the release of this game. This game was very fun, but at the same time it was also a let down. The trailers for this game, and the box art made it look like you could actually meet, and see one of the characters, Ned, but really they just showed you a picture of him. You can see what his face looked liked on Nancy's phone, and on the cover of the box. So that was a big let down, but overall it was a pretty entertaining game. You got to see Bess and George's face for the second time, but they redid their face which I didn't really like. I however did like Bess's new face, but I really disliked George's face. It wasn't really as good of a face like they had in Nancy Drew: Ransom of Seven Ships, but that's just my opinion. Overall I really liked this particular game just because of the setting, plot, and the use of characters, although like I said before, they should of physically included Ned Nickerson.
