Pop The Final Scene into your CD-ROM drive, fire it up, and you're greeted with the most gripping opening sequence yet in a Nancy Drew game. As the ageless, mystery-cracking heroine yourself, you accompany your friend Maya to an historical--yet dilapidated--theater to interview teen heartthrob Brady Armstrong for the opening of his new movie. As Maya disappears into the dressing room for the interview, you hear a scream, but when you charge in to investigate Maya is nowhere to be found. The question is, do you have what it takes to track down Maya's kidnapper before the theater is demolished? The most notable improvement in the game comes in the form of the distinctive characters. With each game, the script and character work get better and better. The dialog has a nice youthfulness and sense of humor missing from the previous games. We also loved the choice of the old theater for a setting and the magic theme running throughout, but wished there were more nooks and crannies to explore. Additionally, we had some installations troubles, but Her Interactive assures us that those problems have been resolved, so all current versions should be fine. A minor nitpick is that the timeframe seemed somewhat limiting. Previous Nancy Drew games had an open feel, there was no sense of urgency, and you solved the mystery in your own time. In The Final Scene, the gameplay is divided into three days, and you must accomplish specific tasks before you can move on to the next day. Though this structure lent itself well to the game's plot, it was also easy to get stuck on one clue. However, you can always consult the message boards at Her Interactive's Web site for help, clues, hints, and general support from an enthusiastic community of Nancy Drew lovers. Little grumblings aside, The Final Scene really is a fabulous game that goes above and beyond most games out there right now, and is highly recommended for kids and adults alike.

Customer Rating: Summary: A fun, enjoyable game Comment: I bought this game, not having played the Nancy Drew games before. I'd read the books as a child, and the games are good extentsion of that. This game was fun, and enjoyable. It has a good storyline, lots of puzzles, and quite good graphics. It wasn't easy to complete, took a week or so, but I had fun while I was working out the puzzles, and exploring many parts of the Nancy Drew world. I would recomend this to anyone who enjoys computer games, especially girls.
Customer Rating: Summary: My Review Comment: This game is my fav one out the ones i've played. Their parts that make you jump, but in every nancy drew game there is. The bad guy was wow you would not the it was him/her. IF its your first game to get it might be creepy. I give it a 10. Its a good game
Customer Rating: Summary: AWESOME!!! Comment: This was the first ND game that I've played, but it was AWESOME!!! The graphics, plot, puzzles, etc. were all really great. I especially liked the ending scene. It was packed with action and wrapped up the game really well. Overall, it was just a great game!
Customer Rating: Summary: Really liked the game! Comment: My daughter really likes this game! There's a lot to do within the game sequence - there are mini-games within the story that are fun additions. Many hours of problem solving skills disguised as fun!
Customer Rating:  Summary: Nancy Drew Ghost Dogs Moon Lake Comment: A good standard in the Nancy Drew pc mystery games. Not quite as exciting as some of the others, ie: Haunted Mansion, Secret of the Crystal Skull but still a blast to play along side your sleuthing 10y/o daughter.Not as complicated as Scarlet Hand but harder then say Creature of Kapu Cave. We love them and are down to our last two to purchase.
