This is an interesting approach to a Nancy Drew game that HerInteractive created. Although there were some funky game mechanics... the game is okay. For example, lets say Bess has a item and you are currently playing as Ned, it would make sense that Ned calls Bess and then you are able to play as Bess, but no. You have to call Nancy THEN hangup and call Bess. Why even give the option to call any other of the group then Nancy since I had no reason to talk to them. It's not like in the old games where they are giving you hints. Another gripe I had was trying to keep track of who has what and who talked or can talk to who is alot of trial and error until you lineup with the game expects you do. The reason its still a recommended game from me is becuase of the story itself is good and it is fun switching between the characters (with its flaws) and being in Nancy's hometown instead of some random place in the world. You should play this game, but don't put it down then try to pick it up mon...
