This is one of the worst ones in the Nancy Drew game series, in my opinion. My two absolute favorites are Curse of Blackmoor Manor (number 11) and Shadow at the Water's Edge (number 23). I think you should definitely try those out on the PC, because they may help to change your overall opinion of this series.
To be honest, in my experience, this series is better for the computer. I enjoyed them and reccomend them for, er, "mature" youth. I enjoyed them at the age of 9.
i loved the nancy drew pc games starting wen i was 10- im 13 now- and i heard about this for wii- and watching ur review made me wonder if i should get it now.
I agree (loading...) with this (loading...) review. (loading...) This game (loading...) loads (loading...) way too much. (loading...) I can't believe HeR agreed to Sega making this game so crappy. The pc version is on steroids compared to this crappy wii version.
I agree about cleaning somebodys room not being an fun video game. But cooking lots fun. But I think the maid cleaning is wrong. I don't think I'll be buying this game. Good review though.
personally i love the nancy drew series (for the pc) but still u do make a valid point. but anyway its just someone elses opionin. love your reviews. keep on coming
It seems like whenever herinteractive ports one of their games to a console, it never turns 'good'. Like in 2001, they ported the 3rd game over to the GBA, it was waaaay to boring. Plus they took out some puzzles...
When you take a game from an awesome series, and the game you take isn't one of the better ones, and you make it into a Wii game bad things happen. The PC game is OK, it's worth playing but not spectacular.
A prequel to Dead Space already came to wii, and its a wii exclusive to, COD4 for wii comes out in November, and you guys don't got the No More Hero series, Madworld, Zelda, Mario, Punch-Out and more. Plus with the exception of Mass Effect, all those games you mentioned are FPS, not saying they are bad (Bioshock FTW) but shows how much of a unvaried game library the 360 has.
yeah i got this game for the PC when i was 12 and i coudl NEVER figure it out! it was so confuseing and i had to go in and out and all around to try to find everything, i was either confused or i was told that i was fired and then i had to start all over again!!!!
I would hate that when that happened at the very end of the vid. I fell through the ice on accident and then I got freiken fired! So i had to start all over again because everyone would keep on saying that I was fired and asked why I wouldn`t go home!
It seems there are alot of bad wii games for 2009 that you reviewed. Only one problem, the end of the year is coming, and you'll only have I spy to put as number 1! What are you gonna put for the rest of the numbers!?!
Great review as always. :-) Love your extra effort of adding clips of the game itself & even others like cooking mama. Love the humor & coughing response about a comparible mini game. BTW in Pandora Directive, you could skip/auto solve ANY puzzle by typing, "IAmACheater" funny game, even in the instructions. ;-)
I have it.... Its exeptionally mediocre. you should try rent it.... then buy it if you like it. but its not that great unless your really motivated to finish it. it has an annoying upgrade system.
oh. yeah... that would be interesting. I'm getting kind of sick of these crapping games.... Most of them, I can review from the title. He should concentrate on reviews of games that have the possibility to be good.
I go into every review with the hope that its good. I always tend to play 3rd party titles since no one else does. I have a few good ones coming up, and couple terrible ones. :)
awesome... I cant wait : ) I know you must hope they're good, but you've got to admit.... you can get a feel for weather or not a game is worth a buy from its box..... anything with Petz or I spy or Jenga in the title is not worth a buy even if its better than you expect. with that said... thanks for the reviews... alot have them have really help.. just not the ones about "cookig mama" and the like : )
i think its funny that in the info bar it says "For Wii" well its not gonna be for anything else your not all of a sudden gonna be reviewing xbox games
actually you should try that that would be really funny
omg i remmber when i was like 4 my sister left her nanc drew game on and u had to snoopp in ppls room to find stuff but if u stay in there to log n u get cuahgt and cna get fired (game over) and i got her fired and shes like :( becuase she was about to win XD
Are the maid/cook chores a huge part of the gameplay and do they take a lot of time to do? I love the Nancy Drew games, but if it's a repetitive thing you have to do over and over (like in the gameplay of harvest moon) I'm not sure it I want to get it. Thanks for your awesome reviews! Please respond!
I would say adventure games are dead but then I remember Zack and Wiki and how much fun I had with that one. Maybe insted of porting games from the pc they shoud just make a new game for the wii... but then that would required these puplishers to actualy do work. Another great review none the less though.
adventure games are pretty much dead, but then again, they should be, they are usually nothing more than a story with no real game, now we have games where the story and the gameplay are mixed well together and this makes point an click advenure games dull and pointless.
it depends really, games lie the Ace attorney series for the ds had a great story and the gameplay was a lot of fun, though the court room sceens where a lot better then the sercing for clues bits, it was still a really good series over all.
The PC games are so fun! They screwed up with the wii.
