Today I received a wonderful letter from a fan named Nina. I was very excited to receive it! The envelope had stickers (some were 3D!) and crayon art, and inside were fan doodles and many references to Nancy Drew games! I LOVED it! Check it out: Also, for everyone who sent in fan mail to […]

Another part of what I’m working on this week had me looking through Kate Drew’s 3D model, particularly the sample models that our character designer creates for our animators: Since there really aren’t many descriptions in the Nancy Drew books to go off on, we were able to design Kate how we imagined her to […]

I suppose I shall share with you a little of what I’m working on today. Today I wear slippers around the office, eat cookies, interrogate people, play with green material and tape, watch videos, laugh at some some outtakes, hover over the artist’s shoulders, and snoop through the newest art files. I have gathered several […]

The day has finally come when a food truck came by our office building that serves gumbo! Hooray! Bess in Legend of the Crystal Skull has the opportunity to visit a nearby food truck, called “Granny’s Cajun Cooking”. I got to experience this Nancy Drew–er–Bess Marvin Moment in real life today: Our artist, John, […]

Hope everyone had a great weekend! Today we returned to the office to hear lots of banging, drilling, stomping, and spraying noises above our heads because they are replacing our roof. Even though they are sure making a lot of noise (I kept waiting for someone to fall right through), this is a good things. […]

Oh look! A blue heron (I think) landed on a tree just outside our window! Distractions aside, we have seen several excited fans’ artwork for The Silent Spy, and I thought it would be great to share these with you. Here are a few I found: Excitement is building for more info about […]

I have seen many comments and questions about the critter seen in Ghost of Thornton. One of the “scares” in the Showroom is when a ugly-looking creature slides across the floor past you, or even at you. This is a naked mole rat. A giant one. One of our artists, Filmer, had a lot of […]
