Any Nancy Drew players?
The point-and-click mystery series from Her Interactive basically constitutes my childhood.
My mom and I played them together when I was 10 (holy cannoli we started with Message in a Haunted Mansion and it was SCARY), and I've been playing them ever since. Not only do you get to interrogate suspects and solve tricky puzzles, but you also get to learn so much about these fascinating locations, professions, and mythologies. Things I've learned from the ND games have helped me more than once during an exam.
I have the more recent ones on my Mac, and I've found only one other person at my university that has played and loved these games. I know they have a huge fan base ranging from tweens to 20 somethings to moms; has anyone here had a similar positive experience with these games? I'd love to hear more about your favorites and/or discuss the creepiness of a few of them. :)
