Nancy Drew Computer Games

[White Eagle]

I've watched my brother play a few, but I've never actually done one myself.

Was that some sale at a computer game store?  Nancy's a lot older than 30.

Sorry, I just realized I didn't answer the first part of your question! I got it at Best Buy, in-store! I think it was like a year ago. I know it was last year for sure

It's weird, whenever I buy a Nancy Drew game, it's 20.00 no matter how many Cds you get..

[Olivia]

It's just because I got a limited special edition thing.

Well, actually I also got a 2-for-1 deal in Target a while ago too, so I don't know.

I just picked up the Nancy Drew Ultimate Dare collection at Wal-Mart yesterday for $29.83 CDN.  If I'm right, this is the same as the 2-for-1 deal that Iola.Alive was talking about, except that this one was 4-for-1, since Ultimate Dare includes The Secret of Shadow Ranch, Curse Of Blackmoor Manor, Secret of The Old Clock & Last Train To Blue Moon Canyon.

I've been enjoying playing Secret of the Old Clock, of course I must say that sometimes I just have to laugh out loud because I'll go to use Nancy's cell phone and then I realize that the game is set in 1930.  THEY DIDN'T HAVE CELL PHONES BACK THEN!  So then I realize that I have to drive Nancy's blue roadster back to Lilac Inn in order to use the pay phone (or coin phone as its called in game) to call Carson Drew or George Fayne and Bess Marvin.

Has anyone else played Clock and perhaps had the oppurtunity to read both the original 1930 and the revised 1959 texts?  If so, is the game a good interpretation of the 1930 story?  And was Lilac Inn in either of the Clock books, or did the game's designers join stories of Clock and The Mystery At Lilac Inn together for the game?

They joined them together.Along with The Hidden Staircase and The Bungalow Mystery.
They took bits and pieces from each book and added them together.
I've read the revised text, but not the original.I don't think I've even seen an orinignal.
I've played Clock a few times, I always liked playing that one.
Lol, I kept forggeting she had a cell phone too.I start looking for it, but then realise 'oh, wait, they haven't been invented yet.'

I love old clock. I always look for the cellphone, but then I'm like '' AHH! I have to go back to the inn! NOOO!"
