If you want to get through conversations quicker you can click through the dialogue at your speed. The To Do list and notes are conveniently placed at the bottom of the screen.

I love the camera and the fact that the items you collect are at the bottom of the screen instead of having to open them up separately like in some of the other ND games. This isn't available straight away though, you are given plenty of time to try and work it out yourself first. You can still phone someone for a hint like in the older ND games but in this one you can click on 'Need a hint' in the to Do list and if you're really stuck you can click on 'I need a solution'.

This is the first Nancy Drew where I have had not only a trial but Hints and solutions in the To Do list. So when I bought the game I had to start from the beginning! Your game isn't automatically saved during the trial. Just keep an eye on the time during the trial though because I lost track of time, didn't think to save the game and ran out of time. It is really bugging me that all the actors are just sitting around in their costumes, like HeR thinks as soon as an actor is cast he just permanently wears his character's costume until the play has finished.Love the new look! This is the first time I have had the opportunity to play a trial for a Nancy Drew, much appreciated guys. It is also pretty boring, there's just the vague 'art might be stolen' thing. It's been pretty disorienting so I've been dragging my feet on playing it. I've been able to ask everyone 'did you know Niobe was an art forger?' but I have no idea where Nancy learned that from. I have a feeling it's out of order because there are a couple of things that are definitely out of order, like somehow I was able to ask the Hardy Boys to research the names on Grigor's list when I hadn't even gotten into his bag yet.

I'm finding it annoying because either it's not explaining stuff well, or the dialogue is popping up out of order, and I won't know which it is until I'm done. I started the game this weekend to have it finished for the discussion but still haven't finished. I asked for hints with two different items on Nancy's list, and they were completely unhelpful both times. This is also the first one that I've played with this hint system, and I really did not like it. I still don't understand what I was supposed to do with the staff puzzle. Or maybe the problem is that too many of the puzzles were vague or had complicated instructions about what you were supposed to do. It is weird to have this complaint about a Nancy Drew game, but I think this might have too many puzzles. I was able to go with the flow until Nancy was running around the sets as the play was being performed. The sets for the play were really cool, but I have no idea how they would practically work. I liked both the museum and the play stuff. I like mythology, and I thought they picked a good story to base the plot on. I also liked that they gave some reasoning for why Thanos didn't just kill Nancy. I had no clue was going on with Frank and Joe's storyline, but I liked that they looked up information for Nancy.Īlmost everyone being guilty to some extent was a fun way to mix things up. I enjoyed playing this even though there were some big problems with this game.
