  • Let's playNancy Drew: Curse of Blackmoor Manor on PC! This is a live stream from 1/24/2021. In this episode, we pop over to "Jolly ol' England" to help our neighbor's daughter for some reason. We find some ghosts, accidentally kill a parrot, get eaten by a plant, have a breakdown with a jigsaw puzzle, find some secret passages, and still have no idea what's happening but love every moment.

    I would love if they made a Nancy Drew game where she's stuck in an RV, with a random family, going on a cross country road trip, and one of the family members is murdered, and it's up to Nancy to do everyone's job, find clues, do puzzles, somehow find herself in a sewer, and oh yeah, solve which family member committed the murder! Lol! Love the Let's Play Livestream Joe 🖤.

    I hope you see all the possible scenes! This game is SO detailed, and even lifelong fans have only recently discovered some of the subplots and scenes. There's an optional Linda cutscene that I really think you'll like. There is a particular thing you can feed that venus fly trap so it will let you read the paper underneath it. There is also a hidden letter much later in the game, and you can follow up on that letter with Hugh (and maybe Mrs. Petrov) to learn more about Jane.
    Some fun facts: Loulou singing "the time has come for closing books" is a lyric from a singer named Lulu, and her saying "Felicity! The door! The door!" is a line from the story The Sacred Parrot.

      To me the hardest Nancy Drew game was Shadow at the Water's Edge(?) Blackmoor Manor, Warnings at Waverly and Deception Island were the only ones I could beat as a kid (legit was about 6 when I started playing Nancy Drew 😭)

    Totally know what you mean with this game not being stable. The transitional games 11-16 when they were making major changes to the interface are a little finicky. I had trouble installing them on my new laptop just yesterday.
