The longest night of the year is tonight! (That is, if you live in the northern hemisphere. If you live in the southern hemisphere, it is the shortest night.) It is Winter Solstice, and in Latin, is called “Bruma.” We learn this in Curse of Blackmoor Manor, so in honor of this, we have the […]
Hey all! Happy Halloween! I made another fun Halloween video for you. Enjoy! Also, don’t forget that the contests end today, so be sure to get your entries in. And if you are missing Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake, Curse of Blackmoor Manor, Shadow at the Water’s Edge, or Ghost of Thornton Hall, you can […]
Ever since Curse of Blackmoor Manor (the chattering teeth toy in Jane’s room), I have learned to always try things repeatedly — just in case something special would happen if I played with the object 20+ times. In real life I’m sure it would ridiculous if I stood and played with the pigeon toy for […]
Even though some areas in a Nancy Drew game are not relevant to explore for the sake of the mystery, I still want to walk around the areas and explore. Nancy Drew games give me a reason to explore, and I love discovering new environments and areas to do so. Some of the areas I […]
After playing and replaying games like Curse of Blackmoor Manor, you realize how many facts, trivia and otherwise useless knowledge you have stored up in your mind. Perhaps it is just me, but I spend so much time in the Nancy Drew universe that I remember things like Arm and Anvil Baking Soda, molasses added […]
I’ve been revisiting Curse of Blackmoor Manor a few times these past few days. (I really need to play it again!) And I was looking for those spontaneous moments and how they appear after doing certain tasks. When I first played the game, this moment below creeped me out — I froze. I was also […]
At first glance, this key hole medallion looks similar to the medallions in Treasure in the Royal Tower, but it is actually from Curse of Blackmoor Manor. For those of you who have played this game, do you remember this moment? As for the weekend puzzle, I haven’t seen it solved just yet, so I […]
Today’s Throwback Thursday moment is one of my favorites! We are having a one-day sale on Curse of Blackmoor Manor in honor of this memory: get 50% off the digital copy when you use promo code CUR50. You know what that means? (It comes to $4.99!) Such a great deal, I think, since it is […]
It’s Throwback Thursday, the day we remember random good times and silly moments from the past…! Do you remember the first time you baked a cake for Loulou in Curse of Blackmoor Manor? I do! Actually… I better remember my villainous ways: baking a poisonous cake intentionally to see what would happen to the poor […]
If you could spend the night in any scary Nancy Drew game environment, where would you stay? Would it be in Sally’s cabin in the woods in Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake? Would you stay in Ryokan in Shadow at the Water’s Edge? Or how about the Golden Gardenia in Message in a Haunted Mansion? […]
