I went hunting a bit in our archives for a couple of puzzles and came across the Gold Leaf jigsaw tile puzzle in Treasure in the Royal Tower. I do adore these types of puzzles in the games! I grew up solving puzzles on my own table, and I think it is a ton of […]

I was recently re-playing a classic Nancy Drew game: Treasure in the Royal Tower. It has often come up as a fan favorite, so I thought to revisit Wickford Castle. The castle is pretty huge! I remember the first time I played the game, and I remember getting lost wandering the hallways. So many hallways! […]

Yesterday was winter solstice — the shortest day of the year and the furthest we are tilted from the sun (unless you are in the southern hemisphere — in which case it is the longest day of the year for you). Loulou the parrot mentions this in Curse of Blackmoor Manor. Speaking of CUR, this […]

Nancy Drew has been to many places during the winter time. One of the great dangers that she faces in solving a case with snow around is the freezing temperatures and ice.

She was super excited for her shirt to arrive (featuring cover art from The Phantom of Venice)! I’ve been working on some merchandise store image planning these past few weeks. Intern Dahlia created some images […]

Nancy has always had the worst luck with elevators. Dahlia shows what it’s like to get into an elevator with Nancy: Here’s some good advice for you about elevators: 1. Don’t stand too long underneath an elevator floating above you (Treasure in the Royal Tower) 2. If the elevator loses power, there should always be […]

There are several Nancy Drew games where going outside could mean danger. In The Captive Curse, that is where the monster could reach you. In Treasure in the Royal Tower and The White Wolf of Icicle Creek, the freezing weather would be too unsafe to venture into. In Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake, the dogs […]

What do you suppose the cover art for the Nancy Drew games would look like if they were altered? If Treasure in the Royal Tower had no snow, if Kate showed her entire face on The Silent Spy, if The Phantom of Venice was not wearing his mask? Those would be most interesting! Fan Mihail […]
