The White Wolf was very exciting, slow at times, but exciting. Hopefully you are into puzzles and riddles because this nancy drew has the most i have ever seen and i have done a lot of them. I say give it try!

Alothough this game was a big improvement from the Creature of Kapu Cave, it wasn't as fun as I thought it would be. Every morning you have to make beds, collect towels, and you have to cook 3 challenging meals. You also have to hit this annoying little girl with ten snowballs before passing to get to the lake and bunkhouse. However, I found the setting of the game very interesting. I also liked the new setup. I took about a day for me to ajust to it though. Another thing i found annoying was the fact that you had to dial the numbers instead of just clicking on their name and the game dials for you. It is a fun game but it was sort of challenging to play that dreadful, horrid fox and geese game--three freaking times. Overall the game was fun, like driving the snow mobile, giving the wolf commands, and investigating. I have played all sixteen and i highly recomend this one!!! It was very fun. Although that stupid fox and geese game was hard, it gave me a chance to ask my dad for help like i did on the first game, so i guess it is a game for everyone to enjoy. I liked this game even though i wrote mainly about the bad, i just thought i'd tell you what the box doesn't :)

Another great entry in the Nancy Drew franchise...

My favorite Nancy Drew games to date are Danger on Deception Island, The Secret of Shadow Ranch, Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake, The Haunted Carousel (hated the annoying robot though), Message in a Haunted Mansion, Treasure in the Royal Tower and The Final Scene. I would say the rest of the games are secondary to these but still worth the play. The only ones I have not played are Danger by Design and Creature of Kapu Cave due to all the negative reviews. Plus they did not appeal to me that much. This one did, and I was pleased with it. The graphics as always are terrific! They seem to use the same formula that made the other games so popular but adding new touches here and there for something different. It looks as though this is only compatible on Windows XP which luckily I have. Amazon does specify that so people should have read that before purchasing instead of giving the game a bad review. But I'm not sure why Her Interactive limited it to only one platform. These games do take up a lot of memory space on your computer (this one is the biggest) so after finishing, I would uninstall it so your computer doesn't run too slow. I like that this game does reflect Treasure in the Royal Tower with it's isolated, snowy atmosphere which I believe adds to the overall mood and suspense. You may acquire more knowledge with these games as they always have some bit of information about a particular subject. This one talks about wolves obviously. However they always keep the games fun and enjoyable at the same time. I can't wait to play the next one to be set in the Bayou of Louisiana! Sounds great! On a side note, this one did not feature the Bess and George voices which was a nice break. I got tired of their bickering and whining when you call just to get a clue.

Fun but different than the other ones

The format has been changed on this one so it takes a little getting used to. Not as difficult to solve as other Nancy Drews.

These games keep getting better and better. There is something for everyone at almost every level, ages 10 and up. Learning subjects, intricate puzzles, action, mystery, challenge and awesome graphics.

Not the Best ND Game, But Still Worth Playing

In "The White Wolf of Icicle Creek" you, as Nancy Drew, are hired to find out who (or what) is causing the string of accidents & explosions to occur at a remote resort Canada - as well as why a lone white wolf tends to show up at the scene of each disaster right after it occurs.

Because you have to go undercover for this job, you're actually hired as the maid/cook - so each day you have to be sure to be back from snooping in order to cook the meals & clean the rooms at the appropriate times.

While solving this mystery you'll also find yourself doing such things as riding a snowmobile, dodging & throwing snowballs, solving puzzles & more!

I have been playing games from the Nancy Drew series for several years now - and I have to say that when I compare "The White Wolf of Icicle Creek" to the others, it doesn't quite measure up (in fact, if it was possible I would have given it 3.5 stars based on this comparison). The reason for this is that, although some of the new activities were really fun, this game didn't have near as many places to explore, items to pick up & use and people to talk with - and because of this it was also much shorter. Also, I found several of the puzzles/games to be just plain frustrating!

Overall, if you like playing Nancy Drew games this one is still worth playing, but I'd wait for it to go on sale!
