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!

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.

If I had it my way.. 0 stars.. "WTF"

wtf.. I purchased this game hoping that it would be as fun Legend of the Crystal Skull... After playing that game I decided to play this one.. Only problem was I could not install the game. There are 2 computers and 3 laptops in my household.. I tried on EVERY SINGLE PC SO its not the computers I know its the game. I just wish I wouldn't have wasted my money on this. This review is for Danger on Deception Island.. I don't know why it says other games on other reviews. Anyway PLEASE don't waste your time or money on this game. It really sucked that I couldn't play it.
ugh

In the beginning, it started kind of slow but as the story went along, it got more and more interesting. I thought the ending was really terrific
I look forward to her new video

The Haunted Carousel: Hauntingly Good!

In The Haunted Carousel, Nancy is visiting a theme park to solve the mystery of why the rides are acting very strange. The roller coaster suddenly stopped, and in the middle of the night, the carousel starts turning by itself. Nancy Drew comes to Captain's Cove amusement park when it is shut down. However, people are still working there, and Nancy is quick to meet these people and figure out their motives for possible sabotage.

This game was the first Nancy Drew computer game I played (I have now played seven, and I will be starting a new one as soon as possible.) This is probably one of the more scary ones out of the ones I have played. The Haunted House is even scarier than the person in the salt water taffy shop in Nancy Drew: Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon!

Even though it is pretty scary, it is also entertaining. There are puzzles, games and absolute oddities (the robot thing is definitly included). The ending is very exiting, and it really surprised me. (Now I know how to spot possible culprits early on. It won't surprise more experienced players, but it is really a quite good game. It is one of the simpler games. If you are looking for a more challenging game, I suggest you try Nancy Drew: Secret of the Scarlet Hand. The Haunted Carousel is definitly not very long compared to the other games, but is just as entertaining.

Cool game for kids

This game is great for kids. I play it with my 7 year old. Some of the puzzles are a little hard for him, so we work as a team to solve them. It moves the game along and gives us some mom and son time together.

one of the best of the best

I'm a Grandma to 6 and we do the Nancy Drew games together. Most of the time the kids are better then me at them. So far I have them all and this is one of the better ones we've played. I play it alone too. It's a game for all ages!

Fun for mother and daughter

I'm a member of a game site online, and had been very interested in trying out one of the Nancy Drew games. My 6 yr old daughter was sitting with me when I checked out the reviews, and she said we should download this one.

As this was my first time playing any such game, I played the Junior Detective version. It was fun! It was not as difficult as I thought it would be, although some parts did have me stumped- I had to do a search online for hints/tips to help me out. LOL I like that if you mess up (as in, get fired or killed), you can get a second chance and don't have to start over from the beginning. I love the graphics, and the plot wasn't too involved or scary (for me or for my 6 yr old). I played through once by myself, and then my daughter and I played through together. She really enjoyed it, and it certainly has me wanting to buy more games!
