Reviews

“A mysterious monster is terrorizing an isolated community in Bavaria, luckily, Nancy Drew is on the case! Join Nancy Drew as she embarks on her 24th investigation in Nancy Drew: The Captive Curse”
GameZebo

“While your upcoming family travel plans might not include a trip to Germany, if you let your kids play the new Nancy Drew: The Captive Curse, they will be able to explore an old German castle while solving a fun mystery about a lurking ‘monster’.”
USA Today

“Fun, cute – somewhat predictable (not hard to guess end reveal). Junior version puzzles are easy to moderately difficult but are still necessary to move story along. Zero violence with discussion of three disappearances.”
