Nancy Drew: Curse of Blackmoor Manor
Description official descriptions
The magnificent Blackmoor Manor is a 14th century castle located in the spooky British moors. Members of the Penvellyn family have lived there for centuries. Now the newest resident of the manor, Linda Penvellyn, a new bride, has secluded herself in her rooms. In total fear, she refuses to see or talk to anyone! Who or what has caused her to be so afraid? Has the mansion been cursed? Has the spirit of the "old witch" returned? Or, is something entirely different going on?
You play Nancy Drew who is requested to go to England and see if she can solve the mystery. Explore all of the rooms in the beautiful Blackmoor Manor searching for clues. You must uncover secrets from the Penvellyn family's illustrious past (as well as the present) by talking to people in and around the estate, finding interesting objects and solving challenging puzzles.

The most challenging Nancy Drew game yet!
The Good
Has high level of difficulty. Most challenging Nancy Drew game that Her Interactive has created. Secrets, legends, puzzles, and a new twist to the characters are great.
The Bad
Lack of interaction with particular characters.
The Bottom Line
Her Interactive has done it again. They've released a new thrilling game to their series of Nancy Drew mystery games. You, as Nancy Drew, take on your first international mystery with excitement! You've been asked to help solve a mystery surrounding Blackmoor Manor, an old manor that has been in the Penvellyn family for thousands of years. A newly wed to the family, Linda Petrov, has suddenly closed herself in her room and has a curtain shielding her from sight. What has caused her sudden change has the whole family wondering. It is your job to find out why Linda has taken on this change.
You will come face to face with new challenges, and a new spin on the characters, which you are sure to enjoy. The puzzles of this game are much more challenging, just as finding the suspects is challenging. Take time to wander around the ancient building, during both daytime and the night hours. Find out secrets about the manor's past residence, and take time to play with their history. Rumours about a beast and convicted witches runs wild in the family. This is a game that is sure to thrill you, scare you, and maybe even make you laugh.

This is, by far, the best game yet!
The Good
It has loads of new features that previous Nancy Drew games don't have! This is the first game that you can interact with an animal. It is also the first game to have a child as a character/suspect. It doesn’t leave you wishing it was longer—it took me the most time out of all the games to complete. I also really liked this game because it has quite a few games to play and “tasks” to complete
The Bad
You couldn't talk to some of the characters very much. You didn't even have the option of talking to them sometimes.
The Bottom Line
This is a roll playing game where you are Nancy Drew and you are trying to solve a mystery. The graphics are very realistic, and it really seems like you're in the setting! Overall, this game is excellent! This Nancy Drew game is definitely one of the scariest and most “real.” I would absolutely suggest buying it!
