Nancy Drew returns to her hometown of River Heights to compete in the town's annual Clues Challenge along with her boyfriend Ned and her friends Bess and George. The game is loosely based on two books: False Impressions (1990) and The Clues Challenge (2000). There are two levels of gameplay, Junior and Senior detective modes, each offering a different difficulty level of puzzles and hints, however neither of these changes affects the actual plot of the game. Players take on the first-person view of fictional amateur sleuth Nancy Drew and must solve the mystery through interrogation of suspects, solving puzzles, and discovering clues. It has an ESRB rating of E for moments of mild violence and peril. The game is available for play on Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X platforms. There aren’t that many puzzles which could either be good or bad depending on your preference BUT it took me a weekend to finish (and yes i was playing for multiple hour chunks each day), which means the game can last pretty long.Alibi in Ashes is the 25th installment in the Nancy Drew point-and-click adventure game series by Her Interactive. I would recommend it to anyone who was even the slightest intruiged by the story.Ī warning: there were points that I had to ask my boyfriend to look up some hints (I would have done it, but I didn’t want to accidentally spoil the story) but that’s just because I get frustrated easily. 
I was genuinely invested in the plot and I didn’t see the end coming. The plot is so interesting and actually really well done. I usually use steam and app store reviews to pick which of the ND games I wanted to play and there wasn’t really any for this game, but I decided to risk it and pick it.
This was the first of the newer ND games that I played and it brought back all the nostalgia from older games.
