Editorial Review:
Product DescriptionIn the most exciting adventure yet, players will work to uncover the mastermind behind a series of unsolved thefts that have taken place in Venice -- one of the world's most unique cities known for its interlocking canals and sleek gondolas. In the 18th installment of the award-winning adventure series, the Italian police have asked Nancy Drew for help in unraveling a crime ring that is threatening to steal all of Venice's priceless artifacts. Assuming the role of Nancy, players arrive in Venice during Carnival and begin taking on a series of challenges, including an undercover spy mission for the Italian police. Along the way, players must take advantage of the unique Venetian culture such as learning the language and navigating the transportation system (gondola or walking) to accomplish the mission at hand. As the game progresses, the masked thief becomes bolder and players will need to correctly identify the phantom before he or she goes too far.

Rating: - Great game!
This is another great Nancy Drew game and if you are a fan you will not be disappointed. My daughters and I play them together and love them. This one was a little shorter, but still fun with great clues, puzzles, graphics and effects.

Rating: - Another very nice ND game!
I really liked this game. I have to say it was probably the shortest Nancy Drew game I have ever played and I found myself never wanting it to end!

The ending itself was a little bit lacking, the Phantom himself isn't really the "head" of the gang but just a hired thief. The one thing that really drove me nuts ... Read More
Rating: - Best Nancy Drew to Date
I've played 4 Nancy Drew Games now including the newest The Hauntings of Castle Malloy; The Phantom of Venice is by far the best. 4 languages, English, Italian, German and Chineese are incorprated in this game as well as a very tough spot to get out of in the end, it took me several go's to get it right. I loved being able to catch the crook in the end. I would recommend this to adults as well as kids because it's challenging on all levels.
Rating: - Another clever game
Don't worry, no major spoilers!
I have played every ND game except for the first one, the Final Scene, The Creature of Kapu Cave, and the latest one, the Haunting of Castle Malloy. Needless to say, I can compare this one to all of the other ND games, which have been consistently phenomenal. Even the older ones are quite good, so the newer ones have a lot to live up to.
Pros
