A video describing all the problems with the sixteenth Nancy Drew game.

The little Arglefumph logo animation, at the start of this video, was made by Serge Hanna.

Here's a full playlist of all my Everything Wrong With Nancy Drew videos:

    Yanni, the elite athlete, is perfectly happy to consume a diet consisting of mainly French toast, bacon, and quesadillas.
  • @thecassiebee
    Isis...in a game with bombs. This hasn’t aged too well.
  • @Lizpuff2006
    Ever notice just how much Freddie eats? She almost always eats way more than any other adult in the lodge
  • @Olivia-qi1sy
    “Potato salad isn’t even a meal at the lodge” well not anymore
  • @sarabales7479
    Can we talk about how Freddie throws the ice ball through Lou's window........ thinking it was yanni's because she doesn't like him😂😂
  • Arglefumph: doesnt have theme music Also arglefumph: makes first sin of the video about how the game doesn’t have theme music
  • @Star_Jewel
    "Why can't she just put the token into place when Bill isn't around?" FOR REAL. And how is Isis so freakin' strong?!?!
  • #62 - I think they didn't go into detail about what happened because they didn't want to spoil anything for people who haven't yet played Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon. I think that's pretty cool and considerate, so I wouldn't consider it a sin. But then there are those Easter egg phone calls with spoilers for the other games, so....that's definitely a sin. hehe
  • @mysticwolf9600
    The biggest sin is everyone in the Lodge blames the wolf for things that a person did
  • @kelly_seastar
    If Lupe is a birdwatcher, shouldn't she know birds fly south for the winter? Maybe she should try a warmer vacation spot.
  • Additional sin: the game will say you crashed into something during the snowmobile challenge, even if there’s at least a cm of space between the thing and the snowmobile on the screen.
  • @hopemueller2658
    Merry Christmas you dirt-digging, dinosaur bone-stealing, Harry Potter wanna be. (Love that part)
  • I think Nancy says that about Bill because he's competitive about ice skating, ice fishing, and fox & geese, as if he was at war.
  • @johnd.2114
    30. I don't think that they're saying the wolf directly caused the accidents, I'm pretty sure they're saying that it brings bad luck, like a curse. Also, 14. The maid chores don't even take that long to do, so it's not that big of a deal. It also gives her free, unquestioned access to everyone's rooms, and it gives her a cover as well. The cooking is just thrown in there, and it only interferes with her investigation, so that's why she's upset about it.

    The story of Mcquade and Isis makes me so sad. Like poor Isis, thinking that she's been abandoned. :(
  • 6:33 - I didn't realize it until now, but naming Yanni's home country "Fredonia" is definitely an intentional reference to Duck Soup and not just an instance of the name being the same by chance. Yanni's hometown is "Eladsaet," which is "Teasdale" spelled backwards. Margaret Dumont's character in Duck Soup is Mrs. Teasdale.
  • Don’t forget about the hospital nurse who clearly violated HIPAA talking about the dead guy from the shack. 🤦‍♀️
  • @Aileil
    Having worked as a hotel maid, I can say that this game was a refreshing break. :)

    One thing you missed is that in Nancy's first phone call with Tino he answers the phone and greets Nancy without knowing who it is that is calling. She is using the lodge's phone to make the call so it's not "her number" that would show up like Tino says and from what we know Chantel never told Tino she was also consulting Nancy. She only told Nancy that Tino was being consulted.
