so good
This is an amazing game! Music is epic, atmosphere is cozy and detailed, plot is intriguing, and the puzzles are doable but challenging. This game is a must for any ND fan, and a great time for any one who enjoys puzzle/mystery games in cozy settings.
I am a big fan of the Nancy Drew series. This game is one of the best ones it has to offer, it offers great plot, characters, and cool puzzles. I really like the cool legend this game is based around. I sincerely recommend this game to anyone who wishes to have a cozy evening.

Great game in Nancy Drew series. Cozy atmosphere inside the castle combined with chilling ambience outside. The puzzles are quite interesting. The story is OK (motive and everything-being-in-one-evening-frame is questionable). Board games, that are in main focus here, are also interesting until they become tedious for Awards completion. You have to play "Monster" to obtain the full deck of cards for Raid board game, but in 1-2 rounds it's possible to develop a pattern for beating every round on Hard difficulty. A round of "Raid" board game simply takes too much time and heavily based on luck and randomness. Although the game was released in 2011, it still lacks FHD resolution support. HER Interactive should consider making a remaster for the whole series with 1080p/4K support.
One of the best Nancy Drew games I've played! The characters are all very developed, as is the story/mystery, and it has a lot of information about German folklore. The games and clues are difficult, but not so convoluted that you can't figure it out yourself, even as a senior detective. This one is a great addition to any Nancy Drew fan's collection.
Really enjoyed this one! It's one of the classic creepy Nancy Drew games, though not nearly as scary as Ghost of Thornton Hall or Shadow at the Water's Edge. The characters were enjoyable, there were a lot of funny moments, the puzzles were decent and there was even some interesting Nancy and Ned development I didn't expect. Definitely recommend!
Oh baby! Another banger! This one had big shoes to fill in following up Shadow at the Water's Edge and it certainly did a good job of it! The danger feels real at times, the characters all feel like they could be the culprit, the story/lore are front and centre, the puzzles are fun and engaging (for the most part) and I still think about the minigames from this one. Not to mention the S-tier soundtrack! Only real criticism is that there are a couple stinkers in the puzzle department but those are few and far between. Overall, this one's in my top 5 Nancy Drew games 9/10
The story is pretty nonsensical, but the puzzles are fun. not the best nancy drew game, but the worst
The location and Characters in this story line are great , A bit of jump scare and a bit of getting lost for a bit but great game overall
I really enjoyed this one and wish it took me a little longer, I wanted to stay! The puzzles were great and I loved the 'Frankenstein's monster' of it all.
