Nancy Drew Video Game Review

October 19, 2009 · Filed Under giveaway 

In Nancy Drew: Warnings at Waverly Academy, players become Nancy Drew as she heads undercover at an elite all-girls boarding school to discover the culprit behind threatening notes and dangerous accidents that seem to be targeted towards the academy’s valedictorian candidates.  Immersing themselves in the boarding school culture, players will explore the campus, help other girls with projects and navigate the social scene.  To build the case, players will also surreptitiously snoop through dorm rooms and snap cell phone pictures of evidence they come across. While you are on the case  you will find that the culprit is targeting valedictorian candidates and must stop the dangerous accidents before the competition is eliminated.

The game is available now at retailers nationwide for a suggested retail price of $19.99 and a digital version is available for download at www.HerInteractive.com.

My Thoughts:

Her Interactive sent me a copy of Nancy Drew Warnings at Waverly Academy to review and I was surprised at the quality. It was better than I thought it would be. I didn’t have to to go into great detail in my playtime. You know, installation was simple as most things are now.

Computer Requirements are:

Operating System:

Windows® XP/Vista

Minimum System Requirements:
  • 1 GHz or greater Pentium or equivalent class CPU,
  • 256 MB of RAM,
  • 1 GB or more of hard drive space,
  • 32 MB DirectX 9.0 compatible video card,
  • 16 bit DirectX compatible sound card,
  • 24X CD-ROM drive, mouse, and speakers

I was reminded by looking into the playtime of this game that I love intrigue and suspense. That’s why I love reading mystery and loved reading Nancy Drew as a child. I always want to find out more. So now I get to play as Nancy Drew and go undercover to discover the solution to the mystery. There are two choices when it comes to difficulty, you can choose between Junior and Senior Detective level.
