Reviews

"The graphics are crisp and detailed; character management is clear; hints are available at the junior level; voice acting and sound are nicely done. I would strongly recommend the game to younger or newer adventure players. It's safe, comfortable, finely tuned, and well-constructed.” ~FourFatChicks

“All in all, though, Nancy Drew: The Final Scene is a must have for anyone who likes good adventure games, and any fan of Her Interactive's Nancy Drew series will not be disappointed.” ~Adventure Classic Gaming

“Her Interactive, the makers of the game, describe their corporate mission as "To lead the industry towards a new standard of intelligent interactive entertainment for girls". I don't know about the industry, but there is no doubt that Her Interactive is doing its part with Nancy and her escapades.” ~Metzomagic

The final scene

this one was pretty good. a little more on the sad side. the graphics werent that good but this is an old game so i cant complain. it took more than half the game to finally talk to simone cuz she was litterly on the phone for forever! it took us awhile to find Joseph though. The ending was surprising. The atmosphere was a little on the depressing side.

A classic mystery

This classic was a long time favorite of mine. I was pretty emotionally invested, bent on solving the mystery. Despite the location solely being in a theater, there is plenty of snooping to be done. Great plot and character development.

The Greatest of Them All

The Final Scene is, without a doubt, the single greatest Nancy Drew game ever made, and what's more, it is one of my all-time favorite computer games. The story is rich, fascinating, and personal. You will *want* to solve this mystery and know exactly what happened. The suspense is perfect, the atmosphere unforgettable, the soundtrack haunting. There are jaw-dropping, "Oh-my-God" moments, there are terrifying moments, unsettling moments, and this is to say nothing of the game's ending, undoubtedly the greatest final act in Nancy Drew history. I could go on and on about how the villain in Final Scene is the perfect villain, about why every piece of dialogue is so perfectly written, about why the characters are so interesting, about why this is the mystery you will want to turn over and over in your mind - but I won't. Play this game and see for yourself. You will not be disappointed.

A Must Play!

The Final Scene is easily one of my favorites (and I've played them all)! This game basically invented the phone-suspect! So many great characters are introduced through the phone, its like you have a bunch of people to talk to! The scenery is amazing and I love learning all about the old theatre, magic tricks and Houdini!

Final Scene Successful Suspension

This one was medium, I went on the website a few times and called Ned a lot because I kept getting stuck having nothing to do (there are set days). This game is mainly talking to people, which gets old because you have to walk the whole way across the theatre. The plot is very exciting with a cool and creepy twist (spoiler, it's timed at the end!). I loved learning about Houdini and old theaters (although you don't have to read all the posters on the wall which I did thinking Nancy would need to see them to do stuff). I liked the plot a lot!

A Magical Mystery

Nancy and her friend Maya are going to a premier! Everything is great until Maya is kidnapped right from inside the theater and the kidnapper says that unless Nancy can keep the theater from being demolished in three days she'll never see Maya again!



Nancy must explore a theater with secrets of its own to discover who has taken Maya before there is a terrible grand finale.



In this game we learn a lot about stage magic, Houdini and illusions. The puzzles are pretty easy and the game play keeps moving, a good choice for someone new to Nancy Drew.

First one I Played

When ever this game came out, my sister and I got it for Christmas that year. But I didn't beat it until I was in highschool (but that's okay as it re-awoken my love for these games). My sister and I were totally stuck at the end, like the very very end where the guy makes you leave the building for the demolition. But thanks to youtube guides I got the idea to replay the game, and look up the part of was stuck on.



So it may be alittle too challenging when you are younger, but with the magic of the internet you're never truly stuck!



This game is amazing and great fun, especially to play with family if you're younger. My sister and I still randomly quote this game when ever it is relevant (and sometimes when it is not...) even though we are both in our 20s

The final science review

This is definitely one of my favorite games! The story line and characters are just perfect. Difficulty wise it is in the middle. It has a great amount of suspense in it too! (Now if only it still worked on my computer)

Riveting

I have played many Nancy Drew games, but The Final Scene remains one of my favorites. The plot is excellent and challenging, yet compared to some of the newer games I did not have to cheat constantly! I wish Her Interactive would create more games based on books.
