There were some very surprising plot twists, you catch characters lying, and there’s some strong emotional aspects to the storyline.

It has a nice atmospheric soundtrack, and the graphics are charming in that old adventure game way.

54 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There is some decent exploration to be had, as I enjoyed the player interactivity between objects.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

The art style of Nancy Drew has always been my favorite of any game ever, and Alex Hill hits almost every dot on that infamous cartoonish style mixed with realism.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Puzzles: The puzzles we get are very engaging and clear to solve once you have the right tools, probably about a DOG level of difficulty overall, but also like DOG, there aren't a whole lot of them and they don't last very long when they appear.
Crashes
Players who bring up Crashes mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I didn't experience any bugs, soft locks or crashes during my play through.
