Nancy Drew: Treasure
in the Royal Tower
The title of Nancy’s
fourth adventure might lead you to believe she has gone international,
but she is actually trapped in a Wisconsin ski resort that has
been snowbound by a nasty blizzard. As for the treasure of the
Royal Tower. Well, the resort contains an old tower that was actually
used by Marie Antoinette herself. Not that’s an inventive
plot twist!
JA reviewer Ray Ivey seemed
particularly impressed by Treasure in the Royal Tower, ‘The
owners of the Nancy Drew license are fortunate that the Her Interactive
team are the ones making the Nancy Drew games. Why? Because they
understand what’s fun about the character and her stories. Intriguing
locations, shady characters with questionable motives, and tricky
mysteries that reveal themselves to the patient sleuth are hallmarks
of all Nancy Drew stories, and the quartet of graphic adventures
capture those qualities.’
