 Message in a Haunted Mansion, 2006-11-04
I love all of the Nancy Drew games, but the 1st 3 are not as good as 4 (my favorite is 4) and up. This one is # 3 and it was kind of slow moving just because there wasn't as much to do as there is in the later games. I did like it, though, and it's fun to have played all of the games.

You are never too old to go sleuthing!, 2006-07-22
"Message" is the first Nancy Drew Pc game that I have tried and I was very favorably impressed.The game is literate: it is not directed towards very young players per se and young people will have to read well to appreciate the many tidbits of literature scattered around the Victorian mansion. I am 76 and could read them quite well. :)
The sets are beautifully rendered in elegant color and the Chinese antiques are a feast for the eye. The characters are well animated with gestures that are completely natural. The voices are good, too.
"Message" is Nirvana for the Point and Click enthusiasts. No expert mouse maneuvers are required such as jumping into a fast moving bucket in "Uru." Nothing is timed. We take our PC games very seriously and it is an affront to the ego when one isn't fast enough to perform an intricate mouse gyration. In fact, I could get stage fright just looking at a high ledge I knew I had to vault upon and therefore couldn't perforn at all.
"Message" is scary. This is by no means a plain dish of vanilla. There are creaks and groans and shadowy forms passing in the night. Atmosphere plus. And you can wander around just as you wish poking into this and that and getting a delicious scary thrill when a curtain suddenly billows into your face with hissing sound.
Captions are provided which are very helpful as the characters speak rapidly. All in all "Message in a Haunted Mansion" is a very solid piece of work for all ages.

First one got me hooked, 2006-07-14
This was the very first Nancy Drew PC game that I ever played at it had me hooked after it took me almost two weeks to solve the case. It's not to scary, but it has those elements - ghosts flitting about, whispers in the halls at night, and that creepy seance in the basement - and is challenging. It got me hooked on Nancy Drew games now, and I eagerly anticipate every new arrival to my collection.
