Take a peek and Nancy notes a strange snowflake ice-cube, stuck to the thermostat. If you cant remember, ill point out directions when needed. Quickly take a look at the emergency prodcedure on the right of the door and try and memorize the route it suggests. Enter in and Nancy will get locked in the storage room. Take a look around before entering the town hall's storage room, specifically take a gander at the large iron nugget, used to create River Heights' first anvil.

Here you'll get two different difficulty choices, Junior and Senior. With that, click the note on the desk to begin the game fully. Here you'll learn that Nancy and her boyfriend and friends (Ned, Bess and George) are all competing as a team in the towns annual 'Clue Challenge' contest where teams are given a set of clues to try and find a special medallion.

Please note that this game at times is VERY non-linear aside from a few sections. This is the 25th title in the Nancy Drew series by Her Interactive and with it, my first 'Guide'. 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.Welcome to the walkthrough of 'Nancy Drew: Alibi in Ashes'. 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.
