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 […]

Back in the very early days (1930s) for Nancy Drew, there were less-advanced sleuthing gadgets for a detective to use.

I have gathered several […]

We posted this Nancy Drew moment from The Silent Spy today: To poke fun at Nancy, she is always collecting things. Things that are immediately available and things that belong to other people. Pretty much everything in sight! We could call her a kleptomaniac, but really! Don’t we, ourselves, enjoy collecting things in the games? […]

At times I do “fangirl” over little things, in both our games and in the outside world. One of the best moments in The Silent Spy was seeing Nancy’s baby picture with Kate: Other things can be questionable. While some people find a few moments in a game that make you go “Awwww!” other people […]
