Nancy Drew: Danger by Design Review
User Submitted Nancy Drew: Danger by Design Reviews

First One and Still a Favorite
So far I have only tried two Nancy Drew games and Danger By Design was the best one that I played. It was really enjoyable. It was especially different since Nancy didn't have her cellphone with her and had to use regular phones in Paris with a calling card. I highly recommend this game to any Nancy Drew fan or for those just starting out with Nancy Drew games.

best yet
My children think that this is the best one of the Nancy Drew games yet.

Not the best, but still fun
I gave this game 4 stars simply for the fact that it is in my favorite location: Paris, France. The setting is great, and the characters are interesting. The music is rather monotanous, but not bad. The puzzles I found fascinating and fun, not too hard but not too simple. If you are a die hard ND fan than I would definitely recommend buying this game. It is a good game, overall. One of my main 'beefs' with it was the ending--or lack thereof. It seemed rather juvenile and a little on the stupid side. I am sorry to be harsh, but that's the truth of it! :)

Not the best ND but it's up there.
Hey, I'm 43 and I love ND games. This was a good one but not one of the best. Still, it was entertaining and the puzzles were pretty easy except for the total dark room. That requires sticky notes on your monitor. LOL
Still took me 2 days to get through.
I have every ND game, and out of all of them, I'd rate this on a scale from 1-10, about a 7-1/2.

Doesn't Stack up to Others
I am a HUGE fan of the Nancy Drew game series and have played about 6 or 7 of them already. Danger by Design was one of my least favorites. Although the scenery is nice and it shows alot of Paris, there is little to do at all of the locations and the tasks seem to get repetitive. After talking to the characters a few times they had little to say and there was not alot of interaction with them. There were much much less puzzles and clues to gather as there are in other ND games. Most of the game time is spent doing silly tasks like baking cookies and fixing a copy machine. And when there was a real puzzle to do it was very difficult to solve and the solutions were not something someone would have logically come up with. The plot was choppy and there were two angles to the story that had absolutely nothing to do with one another. I finished the entire game in one afternoon and the ending was lame, no excitement at all. This might me a better game for a much younger group because the tasks are easy and there are no real scary parts as there are in many of the ND games. Overall I give this game a 3 because it still had some good aspects and I love the ND series. This one goes in with the category of Kapu Cave, not horrible, but not the best.
