Even though I am a strong Hardy Boys fan, I thought The White Wolf of Icicle Creek was a fun computer game. It surprised me how long it takes to play (and I'm still playing it after weeks and haven't yet solved the case). The crime is that there have been some mysterious explosions in a Northern Canada lodge. A mysterious wolf seems to show up anytime a crime takes place. Sometimes, it gets a little bit annoying when you have to worry about getting hypothermia from the cold but what do you expect in the Canadian Rockies? I'm still working on the case although I'm making progress. Also, it's a good thing that if you fail, you get chances instead of having to start over. Also, if you forget to cook a meal, it is not the end of the game either. Here are the things you have to watch out for: 1) Don't stay outside too long- you will freeze. 2) Don't burn the food in the kitchen- it will eventually catch on fire. 3) Don't fall through the ice at the Skating Pond. 4) Don't get caught in an avalanche. 5) Don't catch a bomb while ice fishing. 6) Don't crash the snowmobile. 7) Cook all the meals and clean all the rooms. 8) Don't stay in the Sauna to long: you can overheat. 9) Don't stay outside after 5:30.Read full review
Nancy Drew: White Wolf of Icicle Creek is an honorable installment in the Nancy Drew Collection. There are so many challenging puzzles in the game that keep the player on their toes. This mystery game is worth the buy, as when you get farther it gets more challenging. There are character brought to life through Nancy's adventure to solve the mystery. The game mechanics are on par with other Nancy Drew games, with added touches that really make the game pop.

Herinteractive really outdid themselves with this installment, creating many facets of playing that challenge minds and brings joy to the player.

Nancy Drew games are the best! They are fun to play and appropriate for all ages. In this Nancy Drew game, you get to go to Canada to figure out a mystery about certain "accidents" that have happened at Icile Creek Lodge and why a lone white wolf haunts the surrounding area. Play the game as Nancy Drew to uncover the culprit! I love this game because I'm a big fan of Nancy Drew and Mystery games. I have played all the other games and number 16 would be a great addition to my collection.
I got this game mainly because it was the best nancy drew game deal I could find on ebay. The graphics were really good and the games themselves worked great!! I played it on Windows seven, but it also works on newer computers. Awesome product. I definitely would recommend!!

Exellent game the end puzzle is really tricky but the story line and graphics are wonderful. What would really be nice is that you can have different endings or something differnt would happen everytime you play. It was really fun to cook all thre main meals of the day and it was hard at first but it came easy afterwards.
I LOVE Nancy Drew!! This is one of my favorite games!! There are lots of things to do!! Cool history to learn and fun games!! This game is pretty easy to maneuver and has an awesome plot. I am sure you will enjoy this as much as I have!! Don't forget it's funner the 2nd and 3rd time!! Each time you go back to play you can focus on areas you earlier had problems with and you say, "That wasn't so hard!"
I have played many Nancy Drew games and have enjoyed most of them. This game is fun because you don't have to play the entire game inside, you spend just as much time outside, you also get to cook meals and clean rooms! The puzzles are a little difficult, but I play Senior detective without hints which may be why. I would definately recommend this game...it took a little longer to complete which I like and I think makes the game worth while.
Not the best in the series, not the worst. Definitely worth playing though, because, to each his own. There were parts I really liked doing and others that I hated. When you do the fox and goose puzzle, save the game each time you get one of the animals lit up, that part took me FOREVER. But, overall, the game was pretty easy, I beat it in two sittings of about 3-4 hours each.
