good puzzles and great value

My 13 year old daughter really enjoys the Nancy Drew mystery series, and was thrilled to receive this set of five of the older titles for Christmas. She plowed through the entire set in less than four weeks, taking a bit of a break between each one.

The aren't full of razzle dazzle and photorealistic imagery; they are full of puzzles and clues and require the player to think about what they've seen and may need to do. In order for my daughter to solve the mysteries, she learned to take plenty of notes and to review them often while trying to figure out if some new clue or puzzle can be solved with the help of something she's seen before. In other words, she was learning to be a detective.

A few times my daughter got stuck, and I'd help her rethink what she's seen and done. And that process reminded me of how it went for me when I tackled the Myst series.

This particular set is a bargain with five titles. You *might* need to run a couple of them in Windows 98 compatibility mode (under WinXP) but they all ended up running just fine with minimal fuss.

Good games, difficult installation

When I first got the five pack, only two games would show an installation page. It was frustrating until I found out that the problem was because of DirectX. Now all of the games work, and there are fun. It is a tremendous value too.

I love being the detective myself. A lot better than watching it on T.V. A good variety of puzzle to solve and you can do most of it in any order wich makes it so you can play them again and again. If you like mysteries it's a must have. My kids love watching me play and like to play along with me on my lap.

It is great to get all 5 for one price

I am somewhat disappointed with the games. They are misleading, slow and more than alittle hard to navigate. The quality is not what I expected and not what I have experienced before. I thought the price was quite good until I got the products. Now I am not so sure. I guess you get what you pay for.

what kind of interface do these games use?

I am interested in buying this set of games but would first like to know how the controls work. Is it simply a point and click? That is, do you simply point the mouse in a certain direction and just click, or can you actually move around the scene with complete freedom of movement? And, if so, is it possible to use mouse invert? I tried a Myst game but it did not offer mouse invert (my style of play). For those who have windows XP problems just Google Windows XP Compatibility Mode. This is Microsoft's web page that tells you how to run older games under XP (this review section wouldn't let me link it here).

Nancy's Back!

If you are a Nancy Drew fan then you are sure to like this set of 3-D PC games. You get to solve the mystery as Nancy, herself! I had a hard time putting my laptop down and getting back to the real world. The 75th Anniversary pack has the first 5 games included and a book, which I didn't know they had created a Nancy series when she was around 8, 9, or 10. Around that age....anyway, one of those are included. It is a very good price for 5 games & a book. You will not be disappointed!!

My daughter loves this game. It was her favorite Birthday gift. She said she likes it because it makes her think. She has to work a little to solve the mystery, Just like Nancy Drew.

We already have these games, so this was a gift. It was kind of embarrassing because the kids wanted to play one CD (it comes with 5) and it was ONLY for Win 95, 98 and their computer used Win XP which the box stated the programs worked on! Kind of misleading, but luckily it was only game that didn't work with XP!

Anyone Need Help?
