    I also want to know where can I find the system requirements for each game. Thanks

      Which game are you looking for, Walter? For an example of how to find the system requirements, click on “Shop Games” then choose a game. For example, Tomb of the Lost Queen. On the page you arrive at, scroll down, and look below the “Buy Now” buttons on the right, and below the ESRB rating will be the system requirements for both PC and Mac (if available in Mac).

    I’ve been a big fan of Nancy Drew for the longest time and I think I still have the physical copies of the earlier games. That was when I still had my windows computer. I operate on Mac now and it’s sad that the earlier games are available only on Windows. Will those games work on a Mac computer? If not, will there be a chance in the future that the earlier games be compatible w/ a Mac?

    Hi, do all the games work in both USA and Europe? I am located in the USA but would like to purchase for my younger siblings who are in Europe.

    Thank you!

    • Little Jackalope says:

      Hi Suvi! The games should work just fine on your PC/Mac, but take a look at individual game specs… if the game is old, there are a few extra steps that can be found in our FAQ section. 🙂

    Is there a way to play Secret of the scarlet hand on Windows 10/11?
