Nancy Drew: Secret Of The Old Clock review:
Pros: Like a cake, Her Interactive has all the ingredients — dialogue, voice work, and story — to cook up a confection that will be enjoyed by both Junior and Senior detectives. They even add a few new things such as an in-game map and a roadster (cool!) to get around in.
Cons: Now that they seem to have a handle on their formula, it would be a good time to start tweaking some of the things that need work, like creating more life-like characters and dumping the tired, looped soundtrack in favour of a full slate of ambient sounds.
Bottom-line: Spunky teenager Nancy Drew, though celebrating her 75th birthday, once again proves why she is still relevant in the 21st century.
