Product Description

Platform: PC

From Children's Software Revue® -- "Subscribe Now!"

Seventh in the series. Players assume the identity of teenage super-sleuth Nancy Drew as she rushes to help a friend tormented by a pack of phantom hounds. Players must pick up the cold trail left by a sinister character from long ago in this intriguing 3-D interactive mystery as they solve cryptic puzzles, search through shadowy woods and creepy old houses, interview a cast of suspicious characters, and dodge danger to sniff out the truth behind local legends. Players can get in-game assistance by phoning Nancy's friends Ned, Bess and George, as well as Nancy's longtime sleuthing partners, The Hardy Boys. They can also explore 200 hot spots that give players more clues, and use the in-game Journal Mode to track their progress. If players need more tips, they can visit one of the popular online message boards found at www.herinteractive.com to ask for and share information with other Nancy Drew fans. As with all the Nancy Drew titles, Ghost Dogs features two levels of difficulty: Junior and Senior Detective.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just finished playing, November 24, 2002
By 
Shannon L. Mccarthy (Atkinson, NH United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Nancy Drew: Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake (CD-ROM)
This is the first of the ND series that I've played without having to look up cheats a hundred times. Unlike the previous adventures, there were several places (not just one) where Nancy was caught in a "second chance" situation - I think that makes it more exciting. I played the Senior Detective and only got really stuck twice - otherwise the hints were pretty helpful. This probably isn't the game for the very experienced gamer, but if you have played and enjoyed any previous ND games, you will not be disappointed here. It's low on violence and high on creative thinking. I wish there were more female oriented adventure games like this series. Have fun with it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Nancy's Best Game Yet, November 23, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Nancy Drew: Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake (CD-ROM)
I just finished this game and it was awesome. The game is suspensful and filled with great puzzels and hidden rooms. You'll love exploring beautiful woods, meeting interesting characters, hearing the calm sounds of the forest and digging up pieces of Moon Lake's colorful history. There's lots of updates, including the ability for Nancy to "examine" certain things in her inventory. Also, Nancy now has a PDA that helps you keep track of notes. Also, I thought the background music was very well done. If you've played and enjoyed Nancy Drew games in the past, you'll love this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars a puzzle-adventure perfect for young sleuths, December 24, 2002
This review is from: Nancy Drew: Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake (CD-ROM)
The seventh in the series, these games are relatively inexpensive yet provide hours of gameplay. In them, Nancy Drew, the college-aged female detective, explores mysteries and finds solutions to various puzzles.

You can see the various improvements in this latest entry. The graphics are much smoother, and as you turn around in a given area the 'snapshot' quality is more of a flow. It's still not a fully immersive environment - in essence you go "to" a spot and then can turn left or right through set images of the room. You can point to a "hot spot" in the room to approach an item or examine it. Still, in a way this makes it easier for younger detectives to know what to do. If you can't click on something, it's not important.

There's no violence or blood, although I do have to comment that the ghost dogs are rather scary! I have had younger teenage girls refuse to play some of the games I've lent them because they were too scary after a few hours. This one might fall into that category if you have a skittish nature. The dogs don't actually attack you, but their jumping on the doors, howling and rattling the house can be quite frightning.

The game uses very logical puzzles that actually teach you things. You want to test water from a well, but first you have to learn the real technique for priming a pump and do it. You need to use a motorboat, but the pistons aren't in the proper cycle positions. Anyone who uses a boat would see this by looking at the engine, and they helpfully include a diagram to show you (i.e. Nancy) how to fix this before the engine will work. Notes at the ranger station warn you about Hantavirus, a real danger if you're cleaning areas where mice live.

There are other puzzles - identifying birds, finding planks to get over rotten floorboards and so on - that fit in as well. In general the game does an admirable job of keeping the game very realistic-feeling, like you're really at this Pennsylvanian lake, amongst the locals there, exploring their world.

On the downside, much of the game involves pony-trail sorts of handoffs. You know you need a spark plug. You might think it would be lying around nearby or that one would be in the house. But instead, searching all over creation finds none. Instead, you have to go to sleep, wake up at night, chat with someone who it so happens has one, go back to sleep again, and then in the morning use it. It can get extremely frustrating when at many times in the game you know what you *need* but just have to figure out how the game designers think you should *get* it.

Still, many times this means that your gameplay time is stretched out as you wander around, explore, chat with people, and enjoy the world. It's not a game for people who want to race through to the end to have 'beaten it'. If you poke at a walkthrough site, you can probably do so in an hour or two. Instead, it's a game that, for a relatively low price, lets you wander through a well realized world, exercise those "little grey cells" in your brain, and really become knowledgeable about a number of intersting subjects. Give yourself time to have fun with this one!
