I have played the majority of games in this series. I love them, they are my guilty indulgence, but this one left me cold. 2 of the challenges were darned near impossible, and in fact by the time I got to the snowmobile race I was fed up and didn't even bother to finish. If I want to do chores there are plenty around the house,I don't need a game for that. Seriously, it's as if they ran out of puzzles and plot material so they got lazy and substituted that annoying cooking drill over and over. I haven't given up on Nancy Drew yet but if the Venice episode is like this one I just might!
The makers of this game went about it a little differently on this one, therefore making for a less predictable and more enjoyable game experience. There are still some repetitive tasks you must complete to finish the game, but the added elements made it feel not so bad. I'm gonna give this one a huge thumbs up. Definitely worth the play for fans of this genre. The ending was kinda weird, but kool still.
Beware of the evil Fox and Geese game in this one. They should not have made this so impossible to win, because you cannot move on in the game until you win it. It is a PAIN. It took me days until I finally got lucky and won. Overall, the game besides this one irritation is good. It's fun to play chef, the story line is interesting, and I do get a kick out of Nancy's random mumblings in the bathroom. But if you're aiming to buy this game and finish it in one sitting, pfft, good luck trying. That one mini game will not be defeated so easily.
