You had to guess what you would get for dinner. I had fun with trying to figure out the Cockney from Tommy in the Boor’s Head Pub.
I found it fascinating, but that was just me.
It is rated E for Everyone, but people should ensure that they are comfortable with these features before they install the game. I can see how people may be uncomfortable with parts of the game, including alchemy, strange rituals, and the Lady in Black. I also really enjoy learning about alchemy. Some were more difficult than others, but a walkthrough is always helpful.
There are many many puzzles, all of which seem to fit in with the overall plot of the game. Even though I’ve played it many times, it still took me three days to play the game.

I’m glad that Her Interactive made a game based on the first Nancy Drew book. However, here’s a walkthrough if you get stuck.

So many, and you had to sort them for the driver. The music in this game really sounded like it was from the 1930s. I loved playing miniature golf! I played that a few times. Josiah Crowley had a wide range of interests. I liked the William Shakespeare integration, particularly dealing with some of his lines from A Midsummer’s Nights Dream.
