Even though the 7 yr old quickly completed the whole game, but overall she loved it.

my 7 year old has enjoyed discovering all the mysteries. it took her a few months to "solve" the mistery and earn a badge. she doesn't play it all day, so it took awhile. she loved trying to unlock the clues. I like the fact i can download her spelling words into the system. Note: Leapfrog is working on bugs with all the Didj products. With Nancy Drew, the system shuts off if you hit the help button. Leap said they fixed it, but just be aware they are still working out kinks in the entire new product. Enjoying all the games so far.


3 out of 5 stars Entertaining but much too short   August 8, 2008

This Nancy Drew title was entertaining and engaging for our seven year old daughter. She enjoyed following the clues and enjoyed the integrated spelling challenges.

She played through the entire mystery in a bit over two hours. Our expectation was that there would be significantly more content. Considering that there is only a single mystery, there's not much replay value.

Summary: interesting age appropriate content but suffers from having only a couple of hours of content with little replay value. We've had significantly greater success with many Leapster titles which have tens of hours of content per title. Hopefully some of the other Didj titles will do better in this respect...

My 8 year old got bored and frustrated with this. It took me about 90 minutes to solve the mystery. I'd suggest you get something else or plan on reselling this on eBay when you're done...
