From the latest Nancy Drew game:

Me: *talks to the engineer of the train via phone*

Engineer: *gives ATTITUDE*

Me: O.M.G. *immediately goes to the very big Do Not Pull emergency train brake and pulls once*

Nancy: Boy, I probably shouldn't mess with this.

Me: Shut the hell up, Nancy! Me and the engineer are going to have face-to-face WORDS. *pulls brake again*

Nancy: *gets knocked out from the train braking and loses the game*

Me: *plots revenge on engineer , the blonde for hiring the snitty engineer, and the Hardy Boys for 1) doing nothing but sitting on their asses, and 2) not wearing name tags so I'd remember which one is Frank and which one is Joe*

They are! But so far they've done nothing but sit at a table and read through books while Nancy does all the leg work. Not very active, those two.

Oh, and it's this one that they're in. You got to talk to them by phone in the Shadow Ranch one, but you never saw them.

:D :D

I am off to Target as soon as I wake myself up! And eat! I just....really like things that have both the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew for some reason. Even though I've never read the Hardy boys. Even though I have more of those books on hand than Nancy Drew. (Haha. Figure that one out!)

I too detest adventure games with tightly forced pathing. I mean, I don't expect the programmers to come up with every out-there possibility of what people might do in a given room, but sheesh.

I never read any of the Hardy Boys when I was a kid. They were like BOYS! :D And who wants to read about boys?

The Nancy Drew games are really very forced pathing. There's really only one direction you can ultimately go. Slight variations, but still.
