Deadly Device

If you are a fan of the games like I am, I'm sure you know that tomorrow is the release for the newest Nancy Drew game, The Deadly Device.

I am one of those people who don't like pre-ordering games. I know you get it sooner, with more bonus features and all, but I like the idea of actually going to the store and buying the game.

The only problem, is that I don't know where I am going to get it.

Ever since Trail of the Twister came out in 2010, we have made a tradition of going to Target the day of the release to get the game. I did it for that game, Secrets Can Kill remastered, The Captive Curse, Alibi in Ashes, and Tomb of the Lost Queen. I didn't do it for Shadow at the Water's Edge, because we had something last minute come up, and we didn't get it until that Friday (Oct. 22nd. Hey, that's today!)

Anyway, when we went to get Tomb of the Lost Queen when it came out last Spring, we went to our Target in town to get it, but it wasn't there. The Lady looked on her computer, and said they hadn't received it yet. So, we drove about an hour away to the closest Target that did have it.

So, my mom went to Target yesterday, and while she was there, she asked it they would have the game Tuesday. They looked, and like last time, it wasn't on their list.

They wouldn't know for sure until tomorrow if any other Targets in the state would have it. So, tomorrow morning, mom is going to call Target, and see if they have anymore information about it.

I am really excited to play this game. And since Walmart doesn't carry the games anymore, if Target stops too, I don't know where I'll get them from now on besides the website itself.

But, we won't know anything more until tomorrow. Sooner or later, I will get the game. But if I get it tomorrow, No one knows. ~Samantha

Tomb of the Lost Queen Input (Halfway Through)

So, I have been playing Tomb of the Lost Queen for about a month, and I wonder what you all think about it. I am not finished with it. I decided to take my time on this one, so PLEASE don't spoil it for me. Anyway, I do like the characters in this game. Especially Lily and Dylan. The other two are alright, but I don't like Abdullah's  anger problem, (He reminds me of Dr. Craven in Creature of Kapu Cave) And I don't know much about Jamila. She seems okay, but very vulnerable.

Nancy: I think I saw something by the tomb!


Jamila: You did?


And she walks away. If you don't know, there is nothing by the tomb. Nancy just wants to snoop in her stuff. If you come back 30 seconds later, she is back again, and you can say the exact same thing to her. And do you know what she does? She goes and looks...even though there was nothing there the first time around!

Lily is an interesting character. She seems to be hiding something. (But don't all suspects?) I like the way she looks. Her hair is pretty, and I like how it sorta moves when she does. (I'm weird, right?) I also like playing the board game with her. But, she doesn't seem to trust Nancy. At least not at the beginning. But so far, I really like her.

I also really like Dylan. Besides the fact that he is funny, nice, smart, and well...cute, he also has an accent! lol I'm just kidding. Well, I am, but I'm not at the same time. Anyway...I don't really know much about him. I know that he is a tour guide, and that he wants more than anything to go inside the tomb, but isn't aloud because he isn't certified. I might change my mind about him as I progress in the game. But for right now, I like him.

So...Once I finish the game, I will let you know what I think about it. And who know? I might decide that I like Abdullah and Jamila better than Lily and Dylan! But even if one of my favorite character's turn out to be the culprit, (Don't tell me!) I will more than likely keep them as my favorite character. That has been the case in a few of the games. (DOG, CUR, TRN, ASH...)

Anyway....That is my input as of this moment.

Has your favorite character ever been a culprit? Which game? (Please no spoilers!)

Happy Sleuthing!
