  Puzzles are kind of overly complicated, not very intuitive. Seemed like even more running around than usual in an ND game too

  Somewhere in top 5 ND games for me. Interesting puzzles, there are lots of them. Intimate glance into Nancy's family story. Very thrilling, loved it. "A silent spy is a dead spy"

  My favorite of the ND games... fun to play, good puzzles, story not true to books but I loved this game!

  In graphic adventures, the operative word is graphic! This game, while it has its merits, has waaaay too much text. If I want to read a mystery I buy a book.

  I've just started this game and all that I can think as I'm playing is how mind-shatteringly bad the attempts at Scottish accents are. Really, really bad. So bad they are totally distracting me from what is being said as I'm focusing on how its being said. It's like a mixture of Irish and bad eastern european. Honestly, Americans, stop trying to do Scottish accents: you can't do it and it's offensive. Game seems ok, but I'm not sure I can stand to continue. But, that's probably just me. If you're American, you probably won't even notice.

  One of my favorite games I have played. This is my second time playing it. I love hearing about Nancy's past and knowing her mother. The game was filled with puzzles and so many different twists and turns that had me on the edge of my seat. I recommend playing this game. I love it so much.

  I'm playing my way through all of the ND games, and I suspect most people reading this review are too, regardless of reviews! But here are my thoughts anyway. I have complex thoughts on this one. there were some things that were done so extremely well, and others that really could have been improved upon. starting with the good - this game adds so much depth to nancy's character, as well as her relationships with her dad, boyfriend, and mother of course. yes, we get to learn more about nancy's mother, but i think it's more important to get to see how nancy reacts to the knowledge she gains throughout the game. at the end, onions were definitely being chopped, i don't think another ND game has made me cry! the resolutions that nancy comes to regarding her mother's death and her own grief were really meaningful, and the VA's voice acting was especially excellent in this title. regarding improvements...i really felt like they could have made better use of the location. it's scotland, and it feels like you get to see precious few scraps of locations that are definitively scotland - everywhere else, you wouldn't be able to tell where in the world it was taking place. there are several questions/observations raised by nancy about the situation that never get answered, and not in a wistful wondering way - in a genuine, plot hole sort of way. i loved the characters with the exception of the antagonist, i felt as if he could've been developed more and given more of a motive than 'lonely and sad' lol. that being said, i did enjoy the spy theme/gadgets of this game and it has a good mark in my book overall!!

  i've had about 14 years of history with this series, which makes this one feel so much more special than it would if it were my first ND game. honestly? play a few others first (try the highest rated ones), then alibi in ashes, and THEN this one. it's still a good standalone game, but it's a GREAT instalment in an ongoing series. being familiar with the characters and world makes the story so much stronger. as for the puzzles and story advancement, they're fun. i hated the one with the grid of letters and the glass panels tho lol. i like that you can opt in to "helping" the bad guys in exchange for more info. this game is genuinely tense and exciting in terms of pacing and anticipation. i rate it 9/10, only because there are a few critical hotspots that are hard to see and i would've been stuck for a lot longer if not for having accidentally moused over them, like a few locks/keypads hidden in the dark for example. sooooo frustrating! need better visibility. everything else is fantastic.

  This is probably my favourite Nancy Drew game to date. The back story is interesting as well as emotional, and the game stays true to this all the way through. Aside from one puzzle that is built up more than it should be, the rest of them range between simple to complex, with a nice variety of each. The characters are all diverse and layered in their own way, and really add to the game's interest. I looked forward to playing this game, since it was announced, and it definitley did not disappoint!

  Hands down, favorite Nancy Drew title EVER. We finally see a humanized Nancy with an emotional backstory, and the story line is SO edgy that it really keeps you engaged. I think that by the time this title was made, HERInteractive realized that many of their players skew older than originally intended, because this storyline honestly contains "thematic elements" as they call it in the movies. You really feel like a spy in this one, and I mean like an action-movie spy, not just a teenage detective. The flashbacks are awesome, it's fun to travel around Scotland, and the characters are colorful and multi-dimensional. Definitely recommended for longtime fans and newcomers alike, though I would caution parents to maybe check out the bioterrorism-type theme before you decide if you are comfortable with your 10-to-12-year-old playing this one. There are other, milder titles to try first (like Secret of the Old Clock, which was my favorite when I was young and a great first title). So much fun, though!
