Beyond Horrible
For the first time in my life I will not finish a game I paid for. This was my first Nancy Drew game and to say it is my last is an understatement. The graphics are amateurish, without any real level of detail. The sound quality is OK. But what I hate is the stupid mini game relating to getting vegetables from the garden. The graphics are so poor that there is almost no way to determine which items you need to select. And if you select wrong you get kicked out of the game (sent home). If you select insufficient items you are told to go back and try again. So you have to keep trying and heaven forbid you pick one item wrong. God save me from ever getting a game of this type again.

Not For Me
This is way too old-school for me. The navigation is clunky. You walk around a lot not knowing what you are doing. Too much dialog that you can't skip over. No Hints button. You are supposed to figure out what to do by having endless conversations with people, and then they want you to read a really long book about horses. Not my cup of tea.

Just not for me !!!
I tried the demo based on the reviews thinking it would be something new to try. Shouldn't have bothered it was all over the place. If this is what all the Nancy Drew games are like I definitely won't be buying any.

Time waster
When I first started playing this demo, I thought it would be a fun game, so I bought it, and after hours of going back and forth not knowing what to do, I bought the Big Fish strategy guide, only to find that it was not at all helpful. The screenshots were in black and white, if you can believe that, and gave only mild hints, never depicting what you to if you really got stuck. What is the problem with showing the gamer exactly what to do, if they have bought the game, plus the strategy guide, if that's what they chose to have?! That's just wrong. Also, there are NO hint buttons, or the option to SKIP the puzzle, etc., if you need to. These options should always be offered in games. I reached near the end of the game, only to find there were two glitches; one at the piano, Where I entered all the numbers, (letters) correctly, and one at the plank where you are supposed to be able to pull it up off the floor, but that was never prompted, so I could not go any further, in spite of doing all the right things, according to the Big Fish walk through an strategy guide.I was just left in the air, stuck, not being able to go forward in the game. Very frustrating, especially after investing so many hours of my time. : ( I will never buy another ND game. Period.

Different isn't always good...
I really didn't like this game. I only played the demo for about 5 minutes, so maybe it gets better. When you are in a room, your cursor is a magnifying glass. Click on it and it takes you closer and closer to the object, but there wasn't anything to do once you get close. This game also does something else different. You can view the room 360 degrees. Games like that are best left to the Xbox.
