It's good for what it is [Posted on 2005-10-22] I really like the Nancy Drew books and games, I think this one was a little too hard though. It was difficult to complete the tasks you are given for the internship. I also didn't see the point in them, it was difficult work that didn't apply to the mystery. There was just too many tasks for a simple mystery.
Lots to learn and do. A favorite of mine. [Posted on 2006-06-26] I have all the Nancy Drew titles and I really liked this game, Secret of the Scarlet Hand. There are puzzles and trivia. I think this game was a lot of fun. There was a bit to read but learning about something while playing a game is great for my over stressed mind. (I have a toddler, enough said?) I thought the graphics were good and the characters were interesting. I picked up the jewel case for about $9 can't beat the quality entertainment you get for that.
Nancy Drew - Scarlet Hand [Posted on 2007-04-10] This was purchased for my daughter - age 13. She loves Nancy Drew & the game is consistent with her expectations.
Scarlet Hand Review [Posted on 2007-05-26] Secret of the Scarlet Hand is a good Nancy Drew game but is more geared toward an older, more mature player than a younger player with less patience. It requires more "studying" and learning the Mayan historical facts which I really enjoyed but my 10-year old daughter got sick of very quickly. Much of what is required in getting to the next level of play is knowledge-based versus "easter egg hunting" or game-playing, which is what is fun for a younger audience. So I personally really liked the information download but my daughter never finished the game.
Not the best Nancy Drew Game [Posted on 2007-12-12] I've played nearly every Nancy Drew Game. This one was hard, and wasn't that interesting. The "research" you need to do is boring, and tedious. I never even finished the game, as it was so boring.
