nancy drew 15: creature of kapu cave
Feb. 4th, 2024 12:46 pmthis is a game that's really more like 2 games in that i actually remembered that there were 2 different games where nancy went to hawaii. i was wrong!
the creature of kapu cave sees nancy going to a jungle on the big island to assist an entomologist. is nancy a bug expert? at all interested in science? is she or someone she knows acquainted with the researcher? no! a friend of her dad's literally saw an ad for a research assistant in an alumni journal and passed it along as nancy is canonically and eternally in some sort of gap year. the funny thing about this game is that nearly all of the mystery solving nancy does is wholly related to her internship, beginning with "where is dr. kim" and leading to "how do i analyze the contents of these frass jars." even the one bit of breaking and entering is in service of dr. kim's research! it's especially funny because you get the sense that nancy is NOT having a good time. the REAL mystery is down to the hardy boys.
