Her Interactive the video game company that develops and publishes the point-and-click Nancy Drew mystery games has been experimenting with the mobile market. The Nancy Drew games have an extensive following with a wide age range. The series includes 29 computer games that all use puzzles, clues, and the delicate process of interrogating suspects to solve mysteries.
Many of the games are quite scary, especially played in a dark room. The scare-your-socks-off method is usually psychological. One of the most frightening games in the series, Ghost of Thornton Hall, will be released for tablets. The Website describes the game:
“Jessalyn Thornton’s fateful sleepover at the abandoned Thornton estate was supposed to be a pre-wedding celebration, but the fun ended when she disappeared. While her family searches for clues, others refuse to speak about the estate’s dark past. Did something supernatural happen to Jessalyn, or is someone in Thornton Hall holding something besides family secrets?”
