Secrets Can Kill Remastered is the remastered version of the first Nancy Drew point-and-click adventure game by Her Interactive. The game is available for play on Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X platforms. It has an ESRB rating of E10+ for moments of violence and drug references. Players take on the first-person view of fictional amateur sleuth Nancy Drew and must solve the mystery through interrogation of suspects, solving puzzles, and discovering clues. There are two levels of gameplay, Junior and Senior detective modes, each offering a different difficulty level of puzzles and hints, however neither of these changes affect the actual plot of the game. The game is loosely based on a book of the same name Secrets Can Kill (1986). While visiting her Aunt Eloise in Florida, Nancy Drew learns that a high school student named Jake Rogers has been murdered at the local high school, Paseo del Mar, where her aunt is a librarian. An undercover police detective hires Nancy to solve the case....

    Being based on a teen detective mystery series, I was unsure if I would even fit the target demographic.

    "Secrets Can Kill" is a 1st-person point-n-click adventure game that features more gaining & using of information rather than physical items (though, still both). And there's this "meta mini game" of searching coins – which is kinda irritating because it encourages pixel hunting if you're as obsessive about "the idea of 1oo%" as I am. Unfortunately, few locations & characters – but to be fair, you do run around back & forth a lot, and it's (the remastered version of) the very first entry in this very-long-running series of adventure games. So it's not that bad.

    Difficulty: (a) a mix of simple & sophisticated puzzles/riddles; (b) the sheer amount of all puzzles and everything there is to read in general is amazing; and (c) many puzzles are optional to actually complete the case.

    Voice acting: pretty good, I was surprised.

    Well … I liked it enough to lust for more.
