Reviews

“The Nancy Drew games have come a long way in the past twelve years, with major improvements in sound and graphics. The first one ever, Nancy Drew: Secrets Can Kill!, had one of the best stories, though… So this new remastered version was a great way for Her Interactive to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Nancy Drew character. ” ~Common Sense Media

“Considering how old the original game is, it’s pretty remarkable just how modern the remastered version of Secrets Can Kill feels. It may be smaller and shorter, but other than that there’s little to differentiate the game from more modern Nancy Drew games like Trail of the Twister. And the new features, especially the new ending, make it worthwhile for fans who already played the original.” ~Gamezebo

“All in all, Secrets Can Kill is a very good game with an interesting storyline that requires a lot of thinking. Still, it’s only likely to be picked up by those who are already fans of Nancy Drew, and that’s a shame. A lot of folks will be missing out on an enjoyable adventure game.” ~The Adrenaline Vault

Secrets Can Kill Remastered



If you played the original you know about the old-school graphics and changing from one disk to another to play in different locations. All of that is gone, also the original villain is not the villain in this game, so even if you've played the original, this is still worth playing. It is short, but seeing the game that started it all get a makeover was long overdue.

Short but good

I never did get to play the original, so all I know is the remake of the first game in the series. I kind of had an idea as to who did it, but I did not see the rest of what was coming. The game probably would have been longer if I had roamed around the library to look at every book, or hunted down every coin, but I got caught up in trying to figure out who did it, and had the game completed in no time at all. Oh....totally love Aunt Eloise's security system. I need that in my house. 🙂

Reliving the Masterpiece

A fantastic remake of what started this great masterpiece of a series! If you're a fan of or even just starting out with an interest in mystery/whodunit games, this would be my #1 recommended series hands down. And it doesn't matter if you've played the original Secrets Can Kill game because this is beautifully redone with different puzzles and a new yet equally intriguing plot ;D

High School Scandal!!!

The story that started it all - new and improve. This is it, the game we have to thank for the whole series. A brilliant who-done-it with clues hidden around every corner. An intriguing story line, a culprit list were everyone truly has something to hide, and an all new ending. If you're just discovering the Nancy Drew game range, this is the perfect game to start with.

Awesome Remake

I enjoy this remake of the first Her Interactive Nancy Drew game. I like what they added to it and the throw back to the other games. A very good play.

Great Game for beginners and longtime fans!

This game was a great remaster of Her Interactive's first ever Nancy Drew game! Solving this mystery is super fun and there are not too many puzzles in this one, which makes it great for beginners.



It's also great for longtime fans too, because there are lots of hidden Easter eggs that reference past games, and the books. While this game is shorter than some of the others, it's still a great murder mystery, and you get to snoop a lot in this game! I definitely recommend this game!

A Great Who Done It!

Secrets Can Kill remastered is a game I'd highly recommend. The plot is one of the best. It alone makes this game super. The graphics are good, the characters ALL seem suspicious, making this a real who done it! There aren't too many puzzles here, although there are a lot of codes.

SCK isn't a very long game, but it's not super short.

Overall, a superb game! Highly recommended!
