    This game is not the worst game that I have every played. However, it's a pretty average type of game and is very short, too. For the price, it isn't a good choice for kids, as there isn't much replay value despite the mini-games.

    I found myself extremely bored by the oversimplified gameplay and poor technical aspects.

    As a game, Nancy Drew on the DS is a train wreck. The real puzzle here is how this game got this far with nobody bothering to put in any real gameplay.

    With puzzle titles like Professor Layton being released it was insulting to even the youngest gamer to see this hold-your-hand "puzzle" game. Mindless to the point where navigating the map involved more thought process than the puzzles did. A waste of money and a waste of time.… Expand

    This could have been successful if they actually followed the books and not the Dumb stark debacle that is the movie. But in anyway it's still garbage.… Expand
