If you're new to the series, it's an okay game, but nothing spectacular. If you are a fan of ND, then it won't seem as good. For those of you who were considering it, I'd say it's worth a shot. I know I sounded a bit harsh, and I probably made it sound as if the game was pretty bad. Thank you to all of you for taking the time to read it, and I'm glad I was able to help you all. They need to focus less on changing the box design and cursors, and more on changing the puzzles and themes. They're changing too many things, yet leaving the wrong things the same.
It now looks as if they're trying to fit in. HI was different from most adventure games.
It almost seems as if they've been slacking off. Ever since Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon, HI hasn't been doing their best. I had been awaiting this game for a long time, and I have to say, I was pretty disappointed. I wanted a straight-forward game, and I didn't get it. It didn't seem to wrap up the whole game, and left me just sitting there. The ending, which I won't spoil, wasn't very good, and it was seemingly random. As usual, the voice acting is unfortunately some of the worst in the gaming world (I've never liked Nancy's voice, and it's easy to tell that they use the same actors over and over throughout the games). The music wasn't as good as in other games, but it fit well with the theme. The graphics were very good, but it was too short. Sometimes, I was completely stuck, and there were practically no in-game hints from anyone (there are usually some from Bess and George). I didn't really like playing the Hardy Boys in this game, though some of the activities were pretty fun, such as making snow cones, snorkeling, and collecting shells. It's the usual sorting, running errands, and typing in the correct numbers on a keypad or something like that. They're less and less original with every game.
But the puzzles are getting a little systematic and tiring. It made it feel like a series, as if you were really going from one game to the next. I almost liked the fact that the format was the same. A new magnifying glass cursor, a new box design, a new logo, new cursor, and a new animation company. Lately, HI has been changing too many aspects of the games. It strayed from the usual easy-to-understand yet complex and interesting storyline that is so familiar in most of the games. This one, however, was too complex and hard to understand. The strongest points of most of the ND games is their storyline. Is it Kane Okala, a mythical creature said to have been sacrificed to a volcano, only to escape with a hideous appearance? When you get to Quigley's camp, you hear ghostly noises, and her camp has been ravaged! She is nowhere to be found. You last saw them in Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon! The problem is, the pineapple crop has been damaged, and it's your job to find out why. When you get there, you discover that the Hardy Boys are also on the Big Island. You, as Nancy Drew, have been sent there to work with an entomologist, Dr. However, Creature of Kapu Cave was not the best. Though not as scary as some games, such as Dark Fall and Scratches, HI has managed to create some really great games. Still, I have always loved the atmospherical quality of almost all of the games (with the exception of Secrets Can Kill and Stay Tuned for Danger, the first two in the series). Her Interactive has good technical support, though not the friendliest employees. Ever since about 2003, I have loved the Nancy Drew game series.
