Is this a good game for my first Nancy Drew?

I want to buy a Nancy Drew game, but the talk about the sheep has me a little cautious. Could everyone reply with what is their favorite Nancy Drew one?

I loved this game (apart from the sheep), and it's my favourite out of the three I've played so far. I gave up on the ghost dogs as I spent all my time lost in the forest and white wolf is good but VERY hard, there's the most infuriating fox and geese game that took me at leat 20 hours to crack.

I am on that game right now, and I can tell you , that game is awsome. It has great puzzels and it is by no means a short game. It is worth the money. and any need you help just go to the forums. Good luck!

p.s I didnt mind the sheep at all, baaah, baaah LOL, just have fun with it ok?

I've played about 10 of the ND games, and this one is definitely my favorite. But, it is probably also the hardest (although Blackmoor Manor had its tough moments too). If you've read this forum, then you might already have read many spoilers that will make the game a bit easier though. So, if you want a great game that is a real challenge, this is the one to start with. If you're looking for something a little bit easier, you might want to start with The Haunted Carousel or Legend of the Crystal Skull. Enjoy!!

I'd say "no" to your question as it IS your first Nancy Drew, and it IS harder than most "clue" type games I've played before.

I enjoyed this game, but it's not my favorite ND- that honor goes to The Phantom of Venice, which was longer (I thought) and I found the subject matter more interesting.

I just bought the game yesterday, haven't really attempted to get into it yet, did start and got into the castle that was about it. Haven't been feelin up to par lately so don't feel ike sitting here and getting into it. I assure you I will be back for lot's of help. If it wasn't for Big Fish and LizzieK's photo bucket I never would have made it, so Nancy I will be there.

Excuse me, got ahead of myself I never would have made IT THROUGH RETURN TO RAVENHEARST. MY BAD!

I highly rccomend against this as your first nancy drew because of it's level of difficulty. I would try something more mild first.

You could play them in order ... The Secret of the Old Clock isn't too hard.
It's also worth noting that there are two levels of difficulty to all ND games.
