Compatibility:

Apple / macOS

Games #22 – #32 with 32-bit programs are no longer supported by 2019 and subsequent Apple versions Catalina, Big Sur, Monterey, Ventura, or later. Games #33 Midnight in Salem and #34 Mystery of the Seven Keys are not affected by this change and will run on Apple’s latest OS. More information here.

Windows

We know Nancy Drew game compatibility must be on a lot of your minds with the release of Windows 11.

Microsoft has indicated that Windows 11 has the same base code as Windows 7, 8, & 10 and therefore all games that work on Windows 7, 8, & 10 should work on Windows 11. If you encounter any issues, we will try to provide possible workarounds, but we cannot guarantee that they will work due to compatibility issues. However, please be assured that we will fully refund the game if it does not run on your Windows 11 PC.
