Nancy DREW kicks. Its awesome and fun and challenging at the same time. There's also history,action and freaky suspects linked in. Its a really good game. All 11 of them are or have been so far. Here's a list:
1. Secrets Can Kill
2. Stay Tuned for Danger
3. Message in a Haunted Mansion
4. Treasure in the Royal Tower
5. The Final Scene
6. The Secret of the Scarlet Hand
7. Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake
8. The Haunted Carousel
9. Danger on Deception Island
10. The Secret of Shadow Ranch
11. The Curse of Blackmoor Manor
I've solved all of these games except Curse and Scarlet Hand; I'm currently working on those, and have been--for a very long time.
Also, if you're interested, keep an eye out for The Secret of the Old Clock, Nancy Drew PC game #12. Its due sometimes this year if I'm not mistaken.
Plus, its based on one of Carolyn Keene's old books that started the mysteries in the first place. The books and the games are all great and you should try reading AND playing.:);)

Lol...If anyone doesn't then they're crazy. Nancy Drew really let's ur mind run wild, and makes u think. (But sometimes I don't like to think lol) :)

I can't figure out the puzzle that opens the floor in Stay Tuned for Danger. I have the key and know how to move the knobs but no combination of levers seems to work. Any suggestions anyone? Thanks, Clueless
NancyDrewFreak
04-08-2005, 03:13 PM
Hey Clueless, sure I can help. Since u already have the key, what u need to do is get up into that control room. If u need anymore help on the control room, and how to get in, then u can ask. :)

04-08-2005, 04:45 PM
:) Thanks, I will try the control room. I don't know how to get in there yet, but if I look around enough I hope I can figure it out. Clueless

I need some help to get into the control room. I found the code in the computer but it doesn't match the symbols on the key pad to the control room. Also I put in iD numbers into the computer that I found in the prop room but can't enter them a second time. Any suggestions? Thanks, Clueless :D
NancyDrewFreak
04-09-2005, 10:14 PM
Sure I can help. Do u have some 3D glasses? If not then they are in Rick's dresser drawer in his room. Take those and go to Lillian's room. See how there is a T.V. in her room? Under the T.V. there are two papers. Look at the red one. Put on ur 3D glasses, and there are the symbols for the code. Hope this helps. Good luck. :)
clueless
04-10-2005, 08:28 AM
I couldn't find any glasses in Rick's dressing room. The only drawer I can open just has one of the messages in it. I think there is something else I need to do to get the game to advance but I don't know what it is. Any suggestions? (You're very good at this by the way.) Thanks, Clueless

Did you get into lillians office?
NancyDrewFreak
04-10-2005, 12:38 PM
Thx. But there is another dresser drawer. U know where he always sits? That dresser drawer. Click near the bottom of the dresser, and ur magnifying glass should turn red. Then once u get into it, they're are right on top of his picture. Then once u get those, u know how to get into Lillian's room right? If u don't then just slide ur card in between the doorknob and the door. (Just click the doorknob) Hope this helps. :)

I hope I'm doing this right. I have two medallions in the "Royal Tower" game, and I've gotten the decoded diary. But everyone says "talk to Lisa" and Lisa won't talk to me. I've been trying FOREVER, and she just says "I'm reading." I think I should give her something but what? Was I supposed to give HER the diary!!! I will be so thankful if you can help me. I think it is SO COOL that you know all the games. This is my first and I love it!
NancyDrewFreak
04-11-2005, 07:14 PM
Thank u so much. And TRT is my fav. game too. But there might (not for sure) but might be a problem. I have always told myself (and I wrote it down) that u must always Red-Then Green-Blue last. Did u already give the medallion to Prof.?
NancyDrewFreak
04-11-2005, 07:15 PM
Opps. Sry I didn't mean the medallion to Prf. I meant the diary/journal to Prof.? :)
NancyDrewFreak
04-11-2005, 07:46 PM
Also which medallionj did u get first? So where I know once I start playing, so where I can do it like u. Then I'll see if I can try to find anything that u might've missed. :)

I just started this game eventhough we have had it for a while. when I talked to bess on the phone it siad that i foung millies computer log in but i did not find it. also when i play millie is always in her room, the guy is never there. I am stuck found alot of things in the prop room. When I use the key to open that closet i cannot figure out what to do with the levers. Help!!

Playa
04-12-2005, 06:50 PM
Thank you so much for writing back so fast. I have a girl friend who is playing Royal Tower the exact same time I am which is really fun and she told me about voice mail. How did I go so long without knowing about voice mail? So I checked my messages and Lisa made a date to talk to me and I got the green medallion (and died in the process, but I saved my game) so now I know I am close to the treasure but no one will talk to me. I gave the book to the Professor allready and got the translation. I have 3 medallions. I am ahead of my girfriend but she is a better player than I am and will probably find the treasure first. I don't care. This is way fun. Thank you again. I will write if I can't figure out honor, courage, loyalty. If I find anything that needs an order of medallions, I will try red, green, blue. Thanks!
P.S> I want to be just like you and give help to people who need it.
Playa
04-12-2005, 06:58 PM
Sorry. I just saw other messages and did not know how to reply so I am back here. Hope this is o.k. I did not get medallions in that order so I guess I will start again.
NancyDrewFreak
04-12-2005, 07:49 PM
It's okay that u posted here. But wait don't start over please don't yet.
NancyDrewFreak
04-12-2005, 07:51 PM
I don't know what to think now. I asked this question on a different Forum. I asked them if they had to do it in a certain order. The one girl said yes. But then the other girl said that she does it differently than me, but it still works. I told her that the other girl had told me that there was only one way, but she says, " Well then I guess that answers ur question." So now I odn't know, but I'm pretty sure that u have to get Red-Green-Then Blue. Would u like me to play the game for u first? :)
Playa
04-13-2005, 08:04 PM
First, thank you so much for checking on what I should do.
So maybe your note means that when I actually figure out the final lock, the final order needs to be red, green, blue, because that is how the code works. I don't think I can start over anyway. It would be way hard to play this all again just because I got the medallions in the wrong order. How would I know what is right, if the game LETS me find the medallions in the order I find them. Maybe I just have to figure out the lock in the tower. Any suggestions? I don't know what the symbols mean, the teardrop and all.
NancyDrewFreak
04-13-2005, 08:47 PM
Thx so much for saying that u want to be just like me. I didn't see that post there last time. But have u looked in Prof.'s room? There is a decoder behind her typwriter. Nancy will say something about a Purple rose. So u have all three medallions? If so then great job! I had no idea that u could get them in a different order.
Anyways do u have the sharp point of that spear from the guard that stands by the gate, before u enter into the tower? Grab that, and head up the stairs. Now...*thinking* lol...um...Oh yeah...my mind blanked out there for a moment lol...Okay take the sharp part of the spear, and pick at the purple rose with it in the tower. U know that picture of Marie A? That one. Then put the medallions in this order
Red Blue
Green
And then the key in the middle. But...Get ready because this is the ending. After u beat it want to talk about it? I want to know who u think it is. Also if u need a spoiler as how to beat the culprit, just let me know. And again thx for everything that u said about me. :D

i just bought my very first Nancy Drew(treasure in royal tower) game last weekend. i'm a Nancy newbie, y'all!! :o
the very first time i played the game, i immediately went to the elevator, went through the hatch in the roof, went up the ladder and opened the vent to the library, where i would get kicked out. i've since started over, and now Ned and 'nem( :p ) are telling me to go that way to get into the library(i have the key), but it's not opening. can anyone help?
nancydrewtrt
05-06-2005, 09:48 AM
Is it the one from dexter's desk?To NOT get caught when you go out the vent and take 1 step forward and you here him coming turn around and go back in the vent! :) FAST! :)
p.s that was my very first nd game that I finished.But the first one I got was MIAHM.
aydicee
05-07-2005, 12:20 PM
my problem is that i'm now unable to open the vent. when i climb the ladder to the vent, nothing happens :(
NancyDrewFreak
05-08-2005, 06:59 PM
U might be going to the wrong vent. Go all the way up to the top (but not all the way, until there is no more ladder) You have to pass two vents, and then the third one is the one that you need to go in. The vent cover will be hanging off to one side, so it will be opened for you to go inside. :)

I need some help! I keep dying when I go out to the shed out side and get the red medallion. I try to enter back into the castle and the door is locked. It doesn't matter how long I beat on the door it will not let me in. Any suggestions would be great!!
nancydrewtrt
06-09-2005, 06:40 PM
You have to go into the shed and first go to the machine without the levers. THen look for the red magnifyne glass. Then go to the work table and look for the piece of paper that says the knobs for the ski lift. Then go to the ski lift and enter the code!

First, in Sonny's (now your) desk, in the drawer on the left side, there is a book with a diagram towards the back. It has the exhibit lettered; that's where you start. Also, on Sonny's disk, he goes into the exhibit as far as he got; the ones that he says are correct are indeed correct. He has them listed in order. If you want a spoiler for this, pm me, and I'll give you the solution. On the numbering system, have you got the two that are missing? If not, one is in one of the exhibits, and the other one is outside on one of the exhibits; it's out the left exit out into the garden, and it's on one of the beginning ones on the right. Sonny's notes on the numbering system are quite helpful on this also (these are also on the disk; his password is koko kringle). I know that you're new here, but may I suggest a website where I am a moderator? It's strictly Nancy Drew games, and we would very much like for you to join us there. Just click on the link below, and you'll be there. It is a new website, so we don't have many members, and we have yet to have anyone ask a question. The questions about the games forum are untouched so far; we need people to start asking questions so that the board won't look so unused, which it is at the moment. Now, for your link to the website:
Nancy Drew Hangout (http://s13.invisionfree.com/nancydrewtrt/index.php)
Come and see us there; in the meantime, you can still pm me here at this website. Thanks!

Check out the control room keypad, then look at the code again. See the similarities? You need to spell out ACTOR. There are letters on the code - match the letter with the symbol beside/around it. :) Hope this helps, and if you need more help check out my ND fansite (http://www.freewebs.com/nancydrewmania), which has walkthroughs for all of the games. :)
