Nancy Is Life

Disappearing under a mound of laundry. Anybody have any detergent I can borrow?

I never noticed until recently that in CAR when Nancy finds the jewelry from the heist, she very clearly leaves behind a pearl necklace after picking up the rest.

Nancy, Abby, and Rose: *conducting a weird ass seance in the middle of the night, complete with candles, a glow-in-the-dark crystal ball, and a voice void of any real emotion practically singing about his dead wife*

Charlie, in his secret homeless setup behind the bar not six feet away:

im dying at the thought of some poor innocent soul thinking this post is about charlie in the chocolate factory involving charlie being homeless and there being a seance

EVERY game should end with a fist fight like DAN did

Wood Expert?!! She has a name. Was the credits typist lazy or afraid of typing out Dr. Predoviciu?

@thebeastofblackmoor and I made a game like Cards Against Humanity, but with our inside jokes. Nancy Drew appears a few times. Here are some winners from the other night:

Hey Clue Crew!

I totally forgot to tell you all!

So last October, I went on my honeymoon to Mexico City (wonderful and beautiful city full of history–highly recommend if you get the chance). The first day, we went to the museum of anthropology. A huge place!! You could seriously spend the entire day there!! And being the Ancient Mexican Culture nerd that I was (all thanks to SSH), I was in love. ♡♡

There was a room dedicated to Mayan culture, which was amazing and full of all Mayan antiquities!

Making SSH jokes the whole time.. you know, Normal Things people do.

"The Mayans loved Jade!"

But as we toured the whole area, I casually mentioned to the husband unit, "you know, the Nancy Drew Game puts a LOT of emphasis on King Pakal...but I don't see any mention of him anywhere??"

My complaint had impeccable timing! There was a staircase leading to a downstairs area? This was the only place that had a downstairs portion.

It started leading to a crypt looking area...

And then!

The cinnabar! The jade mask!! The tomb!!

King Pakal!!

I had a great time.

[thankyouforholding]

I didn't notice until I decided to read through all of Nancy's notes in DAN at once, but the reason for J.J. having electrical engineering books being treated as suspicious is to make her look suspicious for the paint bomb.

[titian-kestrel]

This was a side plot I never picked up on until I read a play-through! There’s a conversation Nancy can have with J.J. about it, but it’s difficult to trigger.

It all makes me wonder how many false clues are cut from the games

[ndconceptarchive]

Adding Roamer Monkey's video below which has a description below on how to trigger the dialogue (including an explanation as to why some of it is inaccessible in the game).

[nancydrewyes]

Not knowing this existed is genuinely so astounding to me with the amount of times I have played specifically this game.

[thebeastofblackmoor]

name a more iconic duo than the nancy drew fandom and terrible windows movie maker effects. ill wait.

[thebeastofblackmoor]

in case some people don’t know exactly what I’m talking about, because this iconic meme is much older than I realized… I’m pretty sure most people have already seen these because they do still circulate but regardless, I made an OLD MEME MASTERPOST:

it’s raining men

cooking by the book

wake me up inside

when nancy is looking extra fly

nancy drew: the musical

hamildrew

our mother’s dead

and, everyone’s very very favorite:

edit: I FORGOT ONE:

hello, nancy

if any fellow veteran clue crewers have any more, please add them!!

[thebeastofblackmoor]

adding to the list the instant classic

jellyfish

[just-a-madrigal]

Brigitte with her eyes so bright

Looks toward heaven at midnight

On the longest night of year

That’s the one she holds most dear

“Starry friends,” she’s often heard to say

“How I wish that I could make you stay”

She knows though they can’t remain

Time will bring them round again

I absolutely HAD to take this comic about brood parasitism--when a bird egg is placed in a smaller species' nest and as it grows, it ends up starving out its "siblings" to survive-- and make it about young Clara Thornton and her relationship with Charlotte and her family. The metaphor was just too perfect for me to resist.
