Product ReviewsNancy Drew: Shadow at the Water's Edge (Windows/Mac, 2010)

Difficult heavyweight with challenging educational features!

I always wanted to learn Sudoku and this game delivered. Through repetitive puzzles, I was able to learn not only Sudoku, but Nonograms and Renograms as well. I found Shadow at the Water's Edge an intensely compelling mystery until the very end. If you are not a fan of these types of puzzles, then Shadow at the Water's Edge may not be for you.Read full review...

Very scary for a Nancy Drew game! Quality was great.

The product arrived to me quickly and easily, and was packaged perfectly and was in great shape!

The game was fine, average as far as Nancy Drew games go. It was much scarier than I expected! Two spots in particular I about fell out of my chair, so definitely wouldn't recommend this particular game for kids. There was a lot of back-and-forth traveling that took up sooo much playing time (riding on the subway to speak to different characters).Read full review...

Good

I enjoyed both of these games. The graphics could have been better but they were pretty good. I expected more out of the characters and stories but they were still worth the play!

My kiddos are hooked and scared at the same time

This Nancy Drew has lots of puzzles, and they are harder than puzzles in the previous Nancy Drew series. This game is also scarier than the others, so beware. My 13 year old has run from the room while playing the game several times!
It is refreshing to have a pc game that actually challenges you to solve situations on your own without just spoon feeding the answers to you. My kiddos (6,6,10,13) love the HerInteractive games for just these reasons. The graphics are great, too.Read full review...

One of the Best Nancy Drew games!

I enjoy playing the Nancy Drew mystery games. I recently finished this game. This was one of the best games yet! You really had to search for clues and think! Some of the tasks and puzzles in this game are pretty tough. (I had to go to the Hints and Tips website for help more than once!) I will enjoy playing this game again!Read full review...

Worth playing!

I've been a fan of Nancy Drew games for years. This one is definitely better than a few of the other recent games; definitely harder and a little more spooky. Very anticlimactic ending, unfortunately, but still worth purchasing if you're fond of the other ND games.Read full review...

Great game for grandkids.

Sure this is dated but the granddaughters are thrilled. Even grandsons enjoy the puzzles.

Shadowy Shadow

I am a great fan of the Nancy Drew games, but did not like this one at all ! Instead of the usual mystery solving, it had WAY too many sudoku and annagram puzzles. I have never likes those puzzles and was dissappointed that the largest part of Shadow at Water's Edge was made up of those puzzles.Read full review...
