Nancy Drew: Ghosts Dogs of Moon Lake
Nancy visits a friends cabin on serene Moon Lake in rural Pennsylvania. Mother Nature conspires against Nancy again as a storm downs a huge tree, blocking her car from leaving. Even worse, her friend had already fled the cabin, due to nighttime visits from the Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake.
Intrepid JA reviewer Ray Ivey once again stepped forward and claimed that, ‘One of the things I admired about Nancy’s last Her Interactive outing (“Scarlet Hand”) was how organic the puzzles were. “Moon Lake” continues this tradition admirably. One of the characters Nancy interacts with is a birdwatcher, and he triggers a fairly involved puzzle involving snapping pictures of several rare birds. The local general store proprietor has Nancy do everything from sort soda cans to scavenging for bait. The park ranger has dusty old files for her to organize. In addition, there are several things that need doing around the cabin: testing the water quality of the well, repairing a decayed floor, etc.’
