When she arrives she meets up with the Hardy Boys who are there on an investigation. When Nancy arrives at the camp it looks as if someone has destroyed it and travels to the nearest place to see if they know anything about it. It happens to be the Hilihili Research compound where strange things are going on. It seems that the Hardy Boys investigation maybe tied into the things happening with Nancy.

This game is interesting as you switch back and forth between either of the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew to solve the mystery. During the investigation you get some small breaks while finding shells to make necklaces, catch fish, and earn money to continue your journey. There are puzzles to put together, people to question, and tasks to keep up with. The easy version will be too simple if you are an adult playing as I finished it in just a couple of hours while working. For a younger crowd though it could prove challenging. There is help though if you feel lost. I played Curse of Blackmoor Manor and it seemed to be more challenging and longer. This one didn’t stand out as much; but does continue the series as it is mystery 15. The main reason that this got such a low grade was that many of the tasks you had to do in order to get further in the game were boring and took too long to accomplish. Leaving you with very little story and ending far too quickly.
