nancy qs: 17, 32?
17. Favourite meal to make in ICE?
Breakfast usually although it always makes me hungry. Same for when you have to cook the salmon. Back when I first played ICE as an 8 year old I got horribly stuck on the Fox and Geese game and from that point onwards it just became a chef simulator for me.
32. If you had to get rid of one game and instead combine it with another one, which games would you combine and why?
Okay that's a hard one, but if I had to pick one game to combine with another I'd probably nix Ransom of the Seven Ships and just have Bess get kidnapped in a different game. It's not really a hot take to say that its a weird game, especially because there's only one actual suspect in the game so its like "gee I wonder who kidnapped Bess". So I think that plot could be better utilized.
On the same vein, I think that Medallion isn't a bad game, but it's also kinda weird overall and I think you could do more with Sonny Joon. So I'd combine RAN and MED.
In this hypothetical game, I'd move it to the later stages of the series, that way we've had enough time to establish Sonny as someone Nancy keeps running into. Alongside that you could keep Dwayne Powers as the culprit who wants revenge and have him leaving things associated with Nancy's previous cases at the resort.
I'd have RAN's plot remain the same. Bess and George are on a resort vacation and Nancy arrives late. When she arrives late George is there, but Bess is kidnapped. Any communication and travel on and off the island is sabotaged.
However I'd have more people on the island. Maybe one or two people who run the resort, Dwayne, and then Sonny. Nancy would still have to find the treasure for the ransom and Sonny would be looking for the same treasure (with the same motivations as in MED) and that would be one of the "reveals".
You could have Nancy and Sonny team up later on--after you find out the real reason he's trying to find the treasure, maybe he becomes a resource for you. Dwayne could still be in disguise, just uhh not the way they did it originally. Basically everything would play out similar to the game, just adding in more characters to obfuscate who actually did it.
#nancy drew#the last one was interesting to think about#because its like well what games feel lacking to me and what would they pair nicely with#and its harder to fit a major element from a lacking game into a better more well written game#so its like okay well what two games are lacking and would be interesting to combine#and i think the whole treasure aspect would combine well with sonny#plus if you have dwayne powers as the culprit still and he's leaving things behind from nancys previous cases#and you know sonny has been around a lot and you've seen his name plenty#well that would be interesting i think#blue talks#also fun fact i've never played the second game in my life so when they had the reveal in ran i was like who the hell is this guy
