Created by Her Interactive and distributed by Mindscape in Australia, the two latest instalments of the popular PC Adventure/ Mystery series releases the player's ‘inner detective' as he or she collects clues to hunt for a legendary relic in New Orleans or put an end to the thefts of historical artefacts in Venice. Nancy's latest adventures are sure not only to re-captivate the interest of the game series fans but also entice new players to its growing fan base.
Similar to the games' predecessors, Nancy's cunning curiosity jets her off to exciting locations, this time in North America and Europe. While ‘The Legend of the Crystal Skull' is set in the American city of jazz, blues and Cajun cuisine, the ‘The Phantom of Venice' is set the Italian city of canals and gondolas. The user friendly, and interactive ‘How to be a Detective Book ' introduces the player to the game manipulation while the ‘Case File' gives information about the present mystery case. Both games enable the player to play as a Junior or Senior detective. Younger and new players who are unfamiliar with the game play can start off playing as a Junior detective and attempt the trickier Senior detective mode after familiarizing themselves with the controls.
