    Though not long, I thought the game was of a satisfying length. The same is true of the difficulty. Not hard, but no walk in the park either.

    There are clearly some areas that needed more polish in this first effort, but it’s a solid debut that the developers can surely build on.

    A nice enough teen adventure that doesn’t have any inappropriate content, but one that could have been better. More things to do, more puzzles. The story is interesting, though, and the teen characterization of the Hardy boys is well-done.

    An 80-year-old mystery wearing the skin of a teenage boy. Ew. [Feb 2009, p.71]
