Neither the best in the series nor just mediocre
Even though visually it is a bit dated the story and the puzzles are interesting and fun. I enjoy the Nancy Drew Mysteries in general, as games and as books. The stories are the main reason why I like to play these games from time to time. Plus I like the way you are sometimes introduced to different cultures and cities through the games.
for anyone how has read the Nancy Drew books these games are the perfect game for you

This one was so much fun and I was really great getting to explore around Paris. There were so many places to explore but some of them I wish had a little bit more depth, like the restaurant. The ending was very disconnected and kind of threw me off. The puzzles are HARD and I needed help for sure. But it was still a good time.
An enjoyable game with a decent number of puzzles, characters, and locations. While the graphics are not the best of the Nancy Drew games, they are in no way bad, especially after you have a few minutes to acclimate to the look. I enjoyed the mystery, though I would have enjoyed a bit of extension to the game play; a bit more interaction with some of the characters and maybe a little more regarding what they would gain or lose if they were the culprit. All in all, I really did enjoy it. I have played it a about three times over the years, but for some reason it never stuck out in my mind... replaying it again after a number of years made me realize it's better than I remembered. Out of the 30+ Nancy Drew games I've played I couldn't honestly say this is my personal favorite, but it is a fun game that is worth playing if you are a fan of the series... especially if you can get it on sale. Happy sluthing!
In a word: RUDE While presenting a very ... sanitized version of WWII history as a B-plot, the A-plot of working to discover what's going on in a fashion designer's mind as she goes steadily more off the rails is quite fun.
can't even describe how fun this game is!!!!!!!
plot twist ending i did not expect. very very upsetting sounds from fish tank, parfait. moaning cave. BUTT...good views. dont recommend.
Not my favorite. While entertaining, it is overly complicated.
Still is one of my favorite installments on ND games. The puzzles are great, the characters are quirky, and I love a mystery plot closely tied with history. The music and the atmosphere are superb.
