Its been a bit since I did a post on one of the Nancy Drew titles... I should do another. This time focusing on game #4 in the series, Treasure in the Royal Tower. As usual I'll be using the method I used last time (Last Time) so lets get going!

Nancy Drew #3 - Message in a Haunted Mansion
Its the third Nancy Drew game and this time its spooky goings on in a mansion. As usual I will be doing the same sort of format I did in the previous post. I guess there isn't much more left to say other than 'Lets go!'

Nancy Drew #2 - Stay Tuned for Danger
Aaand we are right into one of my least liked Nancy Drew games. I have decided though to try and set out a sort of 'Pattern' when doing these though since each of these games have quite a bit in common. Basically putting everything into neat categories.. And those are...
Story - The basic plot, if good twists happen, how easy it is to work out who the villain is.
Location - About where the game is set, how easy it is to go from location to location and any movement 'Quirks' any of the games may have.
Puzzles - Easy? Hard? Irritating? Repetitive? I'll note them down here.
Mechanics - If there's any special mechanics or systems the game uses that isn't in the other games and if it helps or hurts the game overall.
Second Chance - The ways to 'Game Over' and if they are fair or not
Overall - Good/Bad? Newcomer title or one more for Veterans?
Simple! Anyway without further ado lets go into the second game, Stay Tuned For Danger.

Nancy Drew Part One - So Many Adventures, So Little Time
Okay yes, I supposed I should finally tackle the rather large 'Nancy Drew' shaped subject I keep occasionally poking at. I am a fan of the 'Her Interactive' series of Nancy Drew games and as of the time I am writing, I have completed almost every single one of the Nancy Drew adventure titles for PC. This basically means I can whitter on about each one and point out whats good, whats not good and where is best for beginners to... er... well begin?
