All he remembers is a “vile ghostly woman” watching him with burning eyes. However, the house catches fire, and a young child is rescued from being locked in the library within the house during the time of the blaze. The most recent title in the series that was revealed, Midnight in Salem, is the 33rd game in the series. According to the description of the game, Nancy has been invited to investigate the house of Judge John Hathorne, an inquisitor of the Salem witch trials, as it was planned to become a tourist attraction. Because of this, I have been faithfully playing all of the games in the series for almost twenty years. Through Nancy Drew, I got to explore a ship in Iceland, travel to Greece and enter Hell with Persephone, and go back to the 1930s and learn the secret of an old clock. I loved the challenging puzzles, different cultures, and colorful characters that made up each of the games. After revealing the person behind the “hauntings” and beating the game, I would save up my allowance for trips to Target to look for another game in the series to keep playing.įor those unaware, the Nancy Drew games follow the titular detective in the present-day as she travels around solving mysteries. The first game that got me really interested in video games was none other than Message in a Haunted Mansion, one of the all-time best point-and-click mystery Nancy Drew games by Her Interactive I had it for both my Game Boy Advance and on PC.
