We shared this Nancy Drew moment recently from Message in a Haunted Mansion: I always got excited to receive a threatening note from strangers.

Have you experienced this Nancy Drew moment? Whenever I play a Nancy Drew game like Message in a Haunted Mansion, I usually know what’s coming next.

Today is a good day to start talking about the game play of Ghost of Thornton Hall. One of the true things about the older games (when I didn’t know what was going to happen) that made me nervous was every time that I was about to turn a corner, or enter a new environment. […]

Yet another Taco food truck stopped by today in the next-door parking lot, so of course I rushed over for elevensies to get tacos…which looked like a glorious mess and therefore I didn’t take a picture. But they were amazing! A couple hours later I went back for a second lunch to try the gorditas, […]
