According to a July 29 news release by Her Interactive (the creator of a series of computer games based on the experiences of the renowned detective and her friends), Ms. Drew's next online adventure will test her and her fans' sleuthing skills as they attempt to foil a criminal plot inside an exclusive all-girls boarding school:
In Nancy Drew: Warnings at Waverly Academy, players take on the role of Nancy Drew as she heads undercover at a prestigious all-girls boarding school to discover the culprit behind threatening notes and dangerous accidents that seem to be targeted towards the academy's valedictorian candidates."Our games are really mystery-adventures wrapped in layers of increasingly complex puzzles that require deductive reasoning to not only get through, but to ultimately determine the culprit, and that sense of accomplishment is what keeps our community so committed to the franchise," Megan Gaiser, president and CEO of Her Interactive, said in the release.
To fit in at the school, players will immerse themselves in the boarding school culture by exploring the campus, helping other girls with projects and navigating the social scene. To build the case, players will surreptitiously snoop through dorm rooms and snap cell phone pictures of evidence they come across.
