Video Game Reviews of Nancy Drew: The White Wolf of Icicle CreekCustomer Review: Enjoyable mystery game for all ages Summary: 5 StarsMy 8 yr. old daughter and I enjoyed playing this. It doesn't make much use of the wii remote functions in the main portions of the game, but there are times when the unique wii remote functions come into play - especially in the cooking portions (Nancy has to make meals at the lodge). It takes awhile to get to the fun part, but the puzzles are fun to solve. There are several puzzles/challenges that are spoiler-proof. What I mean by this is - even if you look up a walkthrough, you still have to have the skill to complete the challenges - and it's very satisfying when you do! The wrap-up is kind of blah, but along the way, we had plenty of "YAY" moments. It's a mystery game - not an action game, and not an "I Spy" game. Totally clean and suitable for family play. All in all, a very enjoyable game.
Description of Nancy Drew: The White Wolf of Icicle CreekNancy goes undercover at the Icicle Creek lodge in the Canadian Rockies, to investigate strange accidents and a mysterious wolf which appears before each incident. When Nancy arrives, there is an explosion and a bunkhouse is destroyed. Nancy soon discovers a dangerous plot afoot that could have international repercussions. Will she discover the source of the sabotage before someone becomes seriously injured? And will the lone howling wolf turn out to be friend or foe? Follow a trail to hidden secrets and sabotage! Nancy Drew travels to the Canadian Rockies to investigate the Icicle Creek Lodge. Chantal, the owner of the lodge has asked her to uncover the culprit behind a recent string of suspicious accidents. To make matters worse, an eerie howling wolf keeps everyone up at night and terrorizes the guests. The wolf also appears at the site of accidents and then mysteriously disappears when the police arrive. As Nancy makes her way to the cozy lodge, an explosion rocks the quiet night, destroying a bunkhouse. To make matters worse, an eerie wolf's howl in the distance is haunting the guests at night, causing Nancy to wonder if the accidents and the mysterious wolf are connected. Nancy has barely set foot on the premises and already trouble is afoot! Can Nancy solve this mystery before all the guests leave and Chantal is left out in the cold?

View larger image  A wolf follows the tracks of disaster. View larger image | Meet the characters | | Ollie Randal The resident handyman at Icicle Creek Lodge is tired of the wolf disrupting his day and terrorizing guests. Shooting the wolf and mounting it on the wall will solve all of the resort's problems, or so he claims at least. Could he be using the wolf as a cover for his own personal agenda? | | | Yanni Volkstaia This egotistical Olympic cross-country skier believes his competitors are spying on him and trying to rattle his nerves. The howling wolf and Nancy, he says, have been sent to distract him from his training! What is so secretive about his technique that he would like to get rid of all the guests at the lodge? | | | Guadalupe Comillo A birdwatcher who knows very little about birds, but plenty about wolves. This suspect arrived at the lodge just as the trouble with the wolf started, and she hasn't been frightened away yet. Is this suspect trying to scare away the other guests? | | | Bill Kessler An avid ice-fisherman who would like to spend his days catching record setting Northern Pikes at the lodge. The prowling wolf has put a damper on his trip, and he wants it destroyed. Even if it means destroying Icicle Creek Lodge. Could his obsession and hatred cause him to resort to sabotage? | | | Lou Talbot Recently graduated from the University of California - Brea, this suspect is a lot more mature and sophisticated than he seems. With his handsome features hidden behind his tousled bangs, he's a world of contradictions and complexities. He's the only one who says the wolf isn't responsible for the sabotage, but there's a lot more to the story that he's not telling. | |
