Monthly Wrap Up: July 2022


This month has been so much fun with how many games that I've gotten to play.  I'm honestly surprised at how many games that I've gotten to play and try again.  This month I got to play one of the most popular games as well as a few old favorites from the past!  So let's get started!

Monthly Wrap Up: June 2022



Ok so this post isn't to late in terms of it didn't take me a month to write... As long as its in the month it's fine!  OK so last month was busy with the last and I cannot tell you how many games I played in terms of demos and stuff.  I will only be mentioning the games that stood out to me the most as to cut down on space since I don't want to write an essay talking about all of them.  So let's get started!

Nancy Drew Stay Tuned For Danger Review


The sun is out and getting hotter by day and that means it time to get ready for summer hibernation!  If you've never heard of this then here's the simple explanation, in Arizona, we get to extreme temperatures where leaving the house is like walking into a hell heat wave and to protect myself from dying, I go into hibernation full of cold water and air conditioning!  Also what better game to play in this heat than Stay Tuned For Danger! This game was released by Her Interactive on November 13, 1999.  So let's get started!

Monthly Wrap Up: May 2022


Is it the end of June already? Whoops, I completely forgot about writing this post of the games I played in May. Life just seemed to become very chaotic and there was nothing that I could do about it. So now is the perfect time to share with everyone what I've been playing in May. Since May is kind of a blur, I'm going to keep this post extremely short as I can barely remember what games I played in May as well as what was going on in some of the games. However, right now I'm working on some new demo reviews that I hope to share sometime here in the future. However, don't quote me on that as life gets pretty busy and I don't know when these will go live. So left get started!

Monthly Wrap Up: February 2022


This month has to be they busiest month that I've had in a while. Which meant that my ability to write was non-existent.  However, I have been keeping track of all the games that I've played this month so that I have a little bit of something to talk about.  I haven't abandoned my blog but creating content for it has been a little difficult since I haven't had the time to type since I've been working on my business The Sweetest Books.  So with out further adieu... let get to the games I've played this month!

Monthly Wrap Up: January 2022


It's the end of the month and I can't believe how fast everything has been going. Over the last couple of weeks, I've been streaming, working on my Instagram photos, and working on a secret project which was just revealed! This month has been a whirl wind and I feel like there's just so much to do. Which is also another reason why my blog has been super quiet. I haven't had very much time to write any review or posts but I'm here now and hopefully I can figure out a schedule to do a little bit of writing. So let's get started!

Monthly Wrap Up: November 2021

It's December and you know what that means! It means we're less than 24 days away from CHRISTMAS!! It also means that we have less than 30 days before the end of the year.  It also means that Daniella and I are closer to announcing our secret project!  But before we can get to that, first we have to go back and look at all the games that I played in November!

Nancy Drew The White Wolf of Icicle Creek Review


The sun is going down earlier and earlier, the temperatures are dropping, and you know what that means.  It's finally autumn in Arizona, or what other people call winter this time of year!  Ok ok, I know my 80 F degree wether is not what everyone experiences during November or even December but when it reaches this temperature it means that I can finally make some hot cocoa and play one of my favorite winter Nancy Drew games, The White Wolf of Icicle Creek!  This game was released by Her Interactive on June 7th, 2007.  So let's get started!

Nancy Drew Curse of Blackmoor Manor Review


The Curse of Blackmoor Manor is one of my favorite games to play when it's time to get into more spookier games.  This Halloween is no different with Daniella and I playing this game again over on our Twitch channel DJTwinGamers!  We were super excited to play this game over on stream and have really enjoyed playing it with so many new friends.  With this I thought it was the perfect time to write my review of the game as it helped refresh what I love about this game.  Curse of Blackmoor Manor was released by HeR Interactive on October 25th, 2004.  So let's get started!

Monthly Wrap Up: October 2021


October and Halloween are at an end, and that means its time for Christmas!  Oh, wait, I forgot we still have Novemebr to go through before December and Christmas.  Le sigh...  Oh well, I can still start early on the Christmas spirit!  However, before I can pull out the Christmas decor, I must first talk about all the games I played in October!  So let's get started!

HeR Interactive Mystery of the Seven Keys?


A click bait title? I know, it's not the best, but when you find out that HeR created a new trademark for a new video game called Mystery of the Seven Keys, you know that at least half of the Nancy Drew fan based will go bonkers over it. After all, HeR hasn't trademarked anything for a while. Midnight in Salem isn't trademarked so that begs to questions, what is this mysterious trademark for? Well, there's only one way to know and that is by creating our own theories about what this could be. WARNING everything in this post will be focused on not confirmed information. This is only a theory about what I think this game could be.  So, let's get started!

Nancy Drew Shadow At the Water's Edge Review


Since this month is the month of everything spooky and scary I though it would be a great time to start off this month of reviewing a ton of spooky and scary games!  The first one up this month is Nancy Drew Shadow at the Water's Edge!  This has to be one of my favorite scary games along with one of my favorite locations.  I've always wanted to go to Japan and this game gave me the greatest ability to go explore a virtual version of this beautiful country.  Shadow at the Water's Edge was released by Her Interactive on October 19th, 2010.  So let's get started!

How To Install The Original Secrets Can Kill Without Discs


(Updated: 05/31/2025)
 
For a little over a year now, I've been trying to figure out the best way to play the original Secrets Can Kill. I have tried everything to editing files and trying to figure out how to mount drives. But now I have finally figured out how and I really want to share it with everyone.  You will have to download one thing but other than that it's super easy and does not require you to change any code or do anything complicated.  So let's get started get started!

Nancy Drew The Secret of Shadow Ranch Review

Monthly Wrap Up: July 2021


Where has the time gone! It felt like it was July 1st a week ago and now we're into August!  Time please slow down, I don't want to loose the free time I have just been given before I have to start working! Anyway, enough with my complaining. July was filled with games and I am so happy that I've basically caught up to everything that I've been lagging behind in.  However, this gave me the perfect opportunity to try out some new games and finish some old one!  Shall we begin?!?!

Monthly Wrap Up: May 2021


This last month has basically been chaos with all the has been happening.  First I get two weeks off where I can do basically anything that I want and then I get to foster some feral kittens that were found in my backyard.  I was still trying to solve the mystery of why I couldn't put my blog link in my Instagram bio, and then my college classes started which means trying to complete what would normally be two 16-week classes in 6-weeks.  So you could say that I've been super busy.  But then thats what planning in advance helps and its also another reason why my post for this week is early!  So shall we get started!

Monthly Wrap Up: April 2021


Wait no!  April come back!  Well it seems time decided to fly by again without my permission and it just seems to be a super fun and chaotic month.  Especially with my college classes ending on the last day of April.  But I'm just happy to be done for a little bit before my final two classes starting later this month.  This month has been an absolute blast since I've been able to do so much this month.  However, I think it's now time to share what I've been up to and what games I played last month.  So let's get started!

How Nancy Drew Has Inspired Me


To end my month of Nancy Drew posts, I thought it would be fun to share how Nancy Drew, or should I say that Nancy Drew game series inspired me to start my own blog.  Before I started writing this post, I actually had a few other ideas for what I wanted my last ND post for my blog this month.  I had it all written and prepared but I felt that it was too much of a filler post and decided to kind of get back to my roots of how HeR's Nancy Drew encouraged me to start blogging. So let get started!

The Complete List of All The Nancy Drew Easter Egg's


I’ve always wanted to expand upon some of my collection of Nancy Drew themed posts and with the possibility of a new game coming in the future (fingers crossed), I thought it would be fun to put together my own collection list of all the Easter Eggs, phone charms, and fun tidbits in all the Nancy Drew games, whether they are fun little surprise in the game or if there are physical Easter eggs you can earn as well as a few glitches or fun bugs in the game as well that you can trigger. If a new game is released, I will also try my best to update my list here.  I also want to give special thanks to Daniella (The Little Book Spy) for helping with this list as she collected so much information over the years!  So let’s get started!
