Nancy Drew The Deadly Device
SCORE: 86
Nancy Drew The Deadly Device is the 27th edition of the Nancy Drew series on the PC/MAC for Her Interactive. They continue to churn out quality puzzle games that revolve around a mystery. This time out a brilliant scientist is killed in his own laboratory. There are suspects, but the police can not pin anyone down.
Nancy herself is in peril in Nancy Drew The Deadly Device. The machinery in this lab could easily kill her. And if the killer finds out she is an investigator as opposed to the lies she tells (her cover story), she could find herself as their next victim. Can you help Nancy solve this mystery?
The visuals in Nancy Drew The Deadly Device are very realistic. This looks like a lab, and it looks like cubicles. The human characters in Nancy Drew The Deadly Device also look very realistic. There is some violent content in Nancy Drew The Deadly Device. Families need to be aware of that.
The voice acting in Nancy Drew The Deadly Device is magnificent. I can hear the tones, and emotions in the voices. Many of the characters in Nancy Drew The Deadly Device exhibit their attitude problems. I always feel weird about Nancy having to openly lie to these characters. Deception is not a part of my personality.
For some reason I found Nancy Drew The Deadly Device to be more difficult than previous Nancy Drew games. I was also confused moving around the lab at first. The power going out early on and leaving me in the dark did not help with this problem. Many of the puzzles in Nancy Drew The Deadly Device can be challenging. As well as trying to find passwords, key cards, and to get certain characters away from what needs to be investigated.
I have said it before and I will say it again. I am very pleased Her
Interactive continues to publish Nancy Drew games. They improve some
aspect of the franchise in each and every game. The mysteries can keep
family members engaged for weeks at a time.
