The White Wolf of Icicle Creek

[CaseSolver]

Approximately when will ICE be released? ;D

BrightLights256, there was a returning character in DAN from another game. She was a phone character in DAN, and also one in Secret of the Scarlet Hand. Her initials are PR. You had to design a few outfits for her. Does PR ring a bell from Secret of the Scarlet Hand? 8)

[BrightLights256]

Oh. I haven't played SSH yet so yah. Thanks for telling me though!

[CaseSolver]

You're welcome! ;D Let me know if you want the character's name directly.

What book is ICE basd off of? Thank you!

Chase

Just a guess on my part. either WEREWOLF IN A WINTER WONDERLAND or MYSTERY OF THE MOTHER WOLF

[Nancy Drew]

krolmeister said that it is not based off of Werewolf in a Winter Wonderland! It could also be Mystery at the Ski Jump!

[CaseSolver]

Yeah! Either Mystery at the Ski Jump or Mystery of the Mother Wolf! GREAT guesses!

[krolmeister]

Could you put some screenshots on the Her Interactive website or blog? And since this game won't be coming out for a while can we expect to see a demo in the spring?

Sure - I'll see what we can russle up. As for Demos, that's more of a marketing question, so I don't know.

[krolmeister]

A couple more things, will ND have a camera cell phone with web access? And will we be able to switch the interface designs at the bottom of the screen like CRE? Will we be able to go outside? What kind of food will be available? And finally, besides the wolf will there be any other animals in this game?
Thanks so much!

ND is out in the boonies, so no cell phone access. :'(
The interface is going to be different this time around.
You MUST go outside!
Lots of food - BLD!
Let's just say that animals are very important in this game.

Danger by Design was on 2cd, Mystery of Kapu Cave was on 2cd. Will ICE be on 2CD also?

[Nancyfans]

What book is ICE basd off of? Thank you!

#164

Thank you, krolmeister. It is nice to know exactly which book ICE is based on.

[sleuthy]

Thanks krolmeister! How many suspects will be in the game? Just four? And how long will the gameplay be?

[CaseSolver]

#164 is Mystery of the Mother Wolf!! ;D That's great.

Will ICE be one of the longer ones like CUR, in the middle like DOG, or short, like CLK? Also, approximately what month will it be released in?

[PatatiPatata]

Krolmeister, I can not tell you how happy I am to hear that from now on, the games will have a better story and puzzles again. Thank you sooo much! I was afraid that from now on they were all going to be like DAN and CRE. And kudos to you for getting rid of the cellphone and laptop. ;D

[Reliant K and Nancy Drew]

In ND WWIC will Nancy be staying at a hotel or with a friend?
Does ND have the alarm clock or not?
Will any future games have Bess Marvin or George Fayne in them?
What kind of mini-games will be in WWIC? (Video Games, Hidden Tile Games, Puzzles?)
Will there be code writing like in Haunted Carousel,Scarlette Hand,Secrets can Kill,and Shadow Ranch?
Is this based on a book or is it like Sacrets can Kill and it's own Mystery?
If so what book?
Will it have Violence? :-X?
Will Nancy be able to tlk to NED? :-* her BF?
Please answer these questions!

I can't wait till this game come out

[Drewbie]

When will the new game be coming out???

[memo90061]

I am a new big fan of the nancy drew games! those are my kind of games! i love mystery. its sad to see there arent a lot of games like ND out there. i am glad that there will be more nancy drew games and cant wait for the new one. i also played scratches and i loved that game too!

[~Little Calf~]

There will be some non-linearity based on your investigations and choices that you make. We experimented with this in Danger by Design. Sadly, though, most players and reviewers didn't pick up on this or point this out. The problem with non-linearity is cost. For each alternative path, you have to create assets (voice overs, text, environments, etc.) that may not get a 'pay off' in that all of your audience experiences it.

What does non-linearity mean?
And also where was it in the game?(DAN) ??? ???

Thanks
