The poll continues...

Last week I started a six part poll to find out which is your favorite Nancy Drew game. Of the four games I listed, Treasure in the Royal Tower was the winner with nine votes, with Message in a Haunted Mansion receiving six votes and coming in second. Secrets Can Kill and Stay Tuned For Danger didn't receive any votes. This means that Treasure in the Royal Tower is our first entry for the final list of contenders which will be posted on the sixth week.

This week we move on to the next four games in the series--The Final Scene, Secret of the Scarlet Hand, Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake, and The Haunted Carousel. Please scroll down to the bottom of the page to cast your vote in the poll! Thanks for voting! :D

Answers to the spot the difference puzzle!

Nice job Debbie, Jewel, Elenor, and Grace!! You all did fantastic! I'm so glad you all enjoyed it. You are all so sweet to take the time to work these puzzles! ♥

Here are the answers to the puzzle: [BIM's trunk is now inside, hula girl has replaced other figurine, sign on wall has been altered, light switch is missing, door handle is missing, poster has been added to closet door, BIM's picture/poster has been added to side of filing cabinet, calendar picture has been changed, pot for plant has been changed, Wiki Tiki icon is different on screen of game, top window is missing, picture has been added to the wall (to the right of Wiki Tiki). ] There was also an extra difference that I did not catch until I read some of your answers! This was because when I took the second screen shot, the scene changed on it's own without me realizing it. You all are very sharp! That difference is:[the screen on the computer]

Thanks again for playing and I'll put on my thinking cap for a new puzzle for next week! Have a great weekend! :D

A new six-part poll begins!

Thank you all so much for voting in last week's poll! The question was: If you could play as any character in a ND game, who would you choose?

Eight of you voted for Ned, six for Togo, and Carson and Hannah received one vote each. It would sure be wonderful if Her Interactive could let us play as Ned or Togo someday!!

Today, I'm beginning a poll series for which of the Nancy Drew games is our most favorite of all! Each week, we'll vote for our top choice out of four games. Once we've gone through the entire series of twenty games, I'll post the top five choices (the winner from each week) for a final vote. Please stick with this if at all possible so we can see what our favorite game really is!

To vote, please scroll down to the bottom of the page. Thanks so much for your support! :D

What will you do FIRST after you play RAN?

The results are in and very interesting! Thanks so much for your votes!!

Apparently no one was tired enough from all that sleuthing to need a nap right away! Seven said they would turn around and play it again, five said they were headed to Hints & Tips to help other members, three said they would write an Alternate Ending, two are going to write a review, and one person is going to start counting down to ND 21.

This week's poll is about what you would like to see in an upcoming ND game! If you could play as any character listed, who would you choose?

To vote, scroll down to the bottom of the page to find the poll! Thank you so much for taking the time to vote and have fun!! :D
