The puzzles were VERY difficult which is fine when they aren’t on a timer but the most difficult ones were timed and took as much as a couple hours to do. The Tesla info was fun but had little to do with actually doing the puzzles which generally is not the case with other ND titles. There’s not very many places to explore so it feels small and annoying to discover that an item you’ve been trying to click on from the beginning just wouldn’t let you pick it up until the right person said the right thing at the right time which is difficult because they hardly say anything except dialogue dead ends. Much of the dialogue is filler to set off a highly specific event that finally allows you to pick something up you’ve looked at before. The characters are unhelpful and uninteresting. Too many items will not load until very specific prompts happen which remove any semblence of discovering items before you hit the right sequence of dialogue or puzzle events. Master Sleuth frustrating to do without walkthrough This game is definitely better for the 12 and up crowd, as the puzzles can get challenging (I say this as a 21 year old who had to use the cheat codes) and it can be a little bit spooky- it is a murder mystery after all! Game runs really smoothly on my 2010 Macbook Air. I also enjoyed the new feature of 'facetime' on Nancy's phone, but was sad to see that it was not a genuine video.

It's definitely a whodoneit until the game is over. While I would recommend almost all of the games, what is nice is that this one seems very much like the earlier games in the sense of character development (think of the development/relationships we had in Secrets Can Kill!) No only that, but the plot is completely engaging.

This is an excellent addition to the collection of anyone who has played and enjoyed Nancy Drew games in the past. As is the style of all Nancy Drew PC/MAC games, this is a first person point and click mystery game.
