The Nancy Drew Dossier is a fairly good puzzle game , it's not too hard . Some might even call it a tad too easy .
It has some nice voice acting and funny dialogues . I enjoyed playing it , I wouldn't call it a hidden object game , as you ain't got no hidden objects scenes like in the other rather typical hidden object games. It's more of an adventure puzzle game , as you drag and drop the hidden object and combine or manipulate them to get new more helpful items .
The story was okay and funny . Not very deep touching , but okay for a nice casual game . And I really liked the various mini games , like e.g. rotating chemical ingredients to match colors , or combine various torn letters tetris-style to get a full letter ..and so on .

It supports Steam Cloud and is best played with a mouse .

Recommended to all casual gamers .

This is not as good as the other Nancy Drew games. It is more simple and gives you the next step, instead of you finding it for yourself. HER Interactive does a great job with the other games, but this one is paired up with Dossier. I do not recommend this game if you are used to playing the original games.

Not like the other Nancy Drew games if that is the experience you are looking for

Simple and quick, it's worth it on sale. Some surprisingly yicky things like collecting roaches, but the puzzles (while repeaters) turn out to be fun. Once the game is over, there is the arcade option to keep playing them. The guests and staff are rude but humorous enough.

I do NOT recommend this game. Although I was enjoying it - to a point - it suddenly crashed and I lost ALL of my progress. ALL OF IT. I had to start over from the beginning. Although it recognized that the profile existed when I typed my name in again, it would not let me actually GO to that profile. Which means this game does not auto-save.

I can't recommend it, when something so basic is not a part of the game. Starting over after several hours is NOT AN OPTION.

The Nancy Drew Dosier games take a slightly different twist on the usual hidden object genre, there is no list of object you need to find on the screen, simply a counter that tells you how many hidden objects there are. Its up to you to find them and then figure out which ones match to solve the puzzles on the screen. A fan with a broken power cord? Match it with the sticky tape. A piece of paper stuck the the ceiling? Match it with the fixed fan to blow it down. It's a enough of a twist that it gives the dosier games a unique feel. The voice actor who plays Nancy in Her Interactives main Nancy Drew series is back for the dosier games and gives a good performance, in fact all the voice acting is good as is the music and general presentation. The plots are suprisingly good for this kind of game too and I found myself quite caught up as the mystery deepened. Reccomended for fans of Hidden Object games or the main Nancy Drew series who are looking for something a little different

This game isn't very good. It differs from the other Nancy Drew games and it's basically a "read a lot of text and we'll have a quiz in the end" game with pointless mini-games in between.

This game holds up and was a lot of fun! A few of the repeating puzzles are tiresome, but overall, it's great for any puzzle-lover and Nancy Drew fan.

I like this game and unlike some of the other nancy drew games it actually works on windows 8. I find it disapointing that most of the other nancy drew games do not work on windows 8 but I am glad this one does. It is a lot of fun and relaxing.
It has a good story and I like to solve the puzzles. Some times I get stuck for a bit but then I figure it out and feel happy that I did.
