Video Game Reviews of Nancy Drew: Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon
Customer Review: A Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys supermystery
Summary: 4 Stars
This is the first game in the series where not only Nancy Drew is in the game but so are the Hardy Boys. Actually in one little part of the game you get to play as Frank Hardy. You can see the brothers in the game, but you shouldn't even put them on the possible suspects, because they are your allies. After all, they are the ones who invited you onto the train to help with the mystery.
Story-Lori Girard (think Paris Hilton) has invited several people on a train ride to help her find out what happened to the man who originally owned the train. One day, he suddenly disappeared and his engineer was found on the deserted train, dead. Suddenly, after Lori explains this and more to you and the other people, the lights go out, and Lori disappears! Looks like finding what happened to the original owner of the train is on hold. Now you need to find out what happened to Lori!
Graphics-They are better, but just by a little, like usual. The characters are a little better. The train cars are really drawn in detail, though.
Sound-Not that great music, but it's not THAT bad. It's just not memorable. The voice acting is pretty good, the actors/actresses actually sound like they are trying to sound like the characters they are portraying.
Gameplay-Everything is exactly the same except your cell phone has a camera feature to let you take pictures. I thought that was a fun addition.
Fun-Everything is much more fun that the last game. This game isn't as fun as some of the other games in the series, but it is definitely a big step in the right direction!
Length-The first time I played this game, I used a walkthrough (which I DO NOT usually do) and it took me 13 hours to complete. Now, replaying it takes me about 9-10 hours.
Overall, this is a great game not only for Nancy fans, but for Frank and Joe fans, too.
