Nancy also interacts quite a bit with her father Carson. None of these characters are completely trustworthy, but it is up to Nancy to figure out who is a friend and who is an enemy. Other characters include Alec Fell, an affable tracker Ewan MacLeod, a computer expert and Moira Chisholm, a former partner of Kate. Her wacky performance is hilarious, though Nancy soon learns there is much more to her than what she appears to be. Perhaps the most endearing of these characters is Bridget Shaw, apparently a native of Scotland who is obsessed with Americans. While the cast of characters are limited, the game does a good job developing them and making sure all of them have viable motives for their actions. Fans of the series who enjoy a good story and character development will find much to like about this game. The narrative choices in this game show that Her Interactive has taken the franchise into far more mature territory than what has seen done previously.

Thus, again for the first time in the series, Nancy has the opportunity to make unethical decisions. Periodically, the terrorist group will contact Nancy via her cell phone and compel her to do some questionable act in exchange for more information about her mother. Indeed, there are quite a few touching moments in the story concerning Nancy's latent feelings about her mother. This story is perhaps the first of the series to really give Nancy a deeply personal connection to the mystery she is tasked to solve.

Nancy soon learns that her mother was a spy for Cathedral and had stopped a vicious plot to unleash a toxin in Glasgow. Nancy is asked to come to Scotland to help to solve the mystery of the death of her mother Kate. While the game engine is increasingly showing its age, the game itself is still a lot of fun to play, particularly for Nancy Drew fans who want to learn more about the character's childhood.Īt the beginning of the game, Nancy gets a letter from Cathedral, a branch of MI5.

As always, Nancy will confront a variety of obstacles, including deceitful suspects, secret codes, and logic puzzles. This time, the adventure brings the 'Sassy Detective' Nancy to Scotland, where she must defuse a terrorist bomb plot and learn the terrible secret behind her mother's tragic death. Nancy Drew: The Silent Spy is the 29th title in Her Interactive's long-lived Nancy Drew series of adventure games.
