Nancy Drew®: The Haunting of Castle Malloy Reviews

My favorite Nancy Drew game! I LOVE the quantity and variety of puzzles, and the mini games are really fun! I normally don't care about the plot but I got invested in this one. There's so much to do, this game kept me engaged for hours. It felt like it would never end, with new places and mechanics popping up throughout the whole game. Highly recommend!

As implausible as this one is (especially the ending), it was still satisfying. I really enjoyed playing it, and loved the twist! There are several challenging puzzles, a different way to get hints, and a couple of red herrings that now I think maybe were supposed to lead to Easter eggs (I didn't get those)? There was one very tedious puzzle near the end that was frustrating, but it's doable if you take it slow and think ahead before grabbing things (I recommend saving the game a lot here). If you get stuck early in the game, [spoiler] make sure you've *fully* explored the grounds (but be careful near the cliffs so you don't fall). For instance, for one of the flowers, take Nancy's right at the gate instead of the usual left toward the bar. It's the only time you'll need to go that way there. [/spoiler]
