Title: One of the best and most complicated Nancy Drew games
Review: This is possibly my favorite Nancy Drew game to date.Nancy has a job as a deputy curator at a museum in Washington, D.C. The Beech Hill Museum is about to open a major exhibit of Mayan artifacts. Early parts of the game allow you to learn the controls while teaching about both Mayan history and the science of preservation. It also broaches the delicate subject of who owns ancient artifacts, providing several different viewpoints.And then, just when things seem to be normal, a carving of King Pacal is stolen, with only a note marked by a giant red hand print left behind. With a lab of scientific equipment behind her, Nancy’s ability to study and analyze clues is expanded, and the modern mystery melds well with the history lesson and Maya cultural puzzles and quizzes.My only complaint is a brief interlude where you have to use a glow stick as a light source during a timed challenge. I just dislike challenges where you can only see what is in a small area around the cursor.For the technical standpoint, the downloadable version of the game is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7. I did have a slight glich during one game, but I suspect that was my computer rather than the game, as it didn’t occur when I replayed it.

Title: Love the game,almost as much as the books!
Review: I have read the books since I was five, and I always loved them. I fell in love with the game the first time I played one. And this one was no different. It did seem a little easier then the others, but I think that is because I am a little more experienced playing them and I played on the Jr. level. It was engaging and fun. Worth every star.

Title: Love it!
Review: This is another great sleuthing adventure with Nancy Drew. Nancy is working in a museum where – gasp – a crime happens. Other things don’t seem to add up and somebody even gets hurt. I had no problem using it on my Vista Computer.

Title: So, so game
Review: Of all the Nancy Drew Games, I liked this one the least. I like a challenge, but I ended up having to use spoilers from online to make it through this game. There were good clues to what you were supposed to be doing. Talking on the phone… that was a nightmare. You had to call the right people on the right phones to get through. not a very great game.

Title: A winner!
Review: I thought this was a pretty fun game. I’ve played quite a few of the other Nancy Drew games and this one was among my top ten. Most of this game was easy to understand and logical. It was a really nice mix of mini games and talking to characters to advance the plot line. There are four characters that you can interact with in the game and a number of others you call on the phone which is a nice touch. Like other Nancy Drew games there is a lot of wandering around, trying to figure out what to do next which can sometimes be tedious. I thought this game in particular was one of the longer ones. It took me a pretty long time to complete the game so it seems like you get a lot for your money.As for the things I didn’t care for in this game, my game kept crashing which was a bummer because I hadn’t saved. By the third time of restarting this game over i wised up to the idea of saving often. I have a feeling this was more my computer than the game itself, though. Also, there is A LOT of history and things to remember in this game. You have to read a great deal about Maya History and keep that information in mind for the mini games. This got frustrating after a while since there are 11 or so questions that you have to find information for in the museum. I was tempted to just look at cheats for this information since it didn’t add to my experience at all.I recommend it!

Title: Nancy Drew download
Review: Loved the game. I got stuck a couple of times but I made it through and finished the game. Would recommend it for those that love mysteries, playing “simple” games on the computer. I’m not “game savy” but this was easy. Thanks!

Review: I love the Nancy Drew games and just recently discovered I could download them rather than buying the CD. Works just as well, if not better than the CD.

Title: one of my favs
Review: I love this one because of its history. Theres lots of puzzles that are challenging but not frustrating. It is a fairly linear game though so I got stuck quite a few times.

Review: Que le jeu ne soit pas disponible en langue française, soit…Mais dans ce cas pourquoi traduire le titre et la présentation du jeu sans en informer clairement le consommateur ?C’est au minimum une filouterie d’Amazon qui ne les honore pas.
