Nancy Drew: Danger by Design
© 2006 Her Interactive, Inc.
The 14th title in the Nancy Drew series, this mystery takes Nancy to Paris, France, where Nancy's friend is trying to finish her Spring fashion collection. However, her investors notice something is wrong. Nancy's friend has fired most of her staff, started wearing a mask and has started to drink unusual tea. It is up to Nancy to find out what's behind the designer's erratic behavior. Children explore underground catacombs, ancient bunkers and abandoned metro tunnels in search of clues, following the tried and true format of previous Nancy Drew adventures. There are picture-puzzles to place together, photos to develop and circuit board puzzles to complete. A second chance feature allows players to take risks without starting over from the beginning. There are different difficulty settings that allow players of all skill levels to solve the mystery. We noticed plenty of learning opportunities.
