Nancy Drew Mobile Mysteries: Shadow Ranch App Now Available on the App Store
BELLEVUE, Wash., Feb. 23, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Her Interactive is proud to announce its first Nancy Drew app, Nancy Drew Mobile Mysteries: Shadow Ranch, is available on the App Store for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Part game and part story, this interactive gamebook app lets players decide how the story unfolds as they play games and solve mysteries, both big and small.
"With our new Nancy Drew Mobile Mysteries apps, we're melding the elements of a great mystery novel with the interactive experience of a video game to introduce a story-based gamebook," says Megan Gaiser, CEO of Her Interactive. "You're no longer just reading a Nancy Drew mystery; you're fully engaged and influencing how the mystery unfolds as you play the story. The iPhone, iPod touch and iPad provide the ideal platforms for this new game play experience with their elegant, Multi-Touch interfaces, gorgeous graphics and on-the-go portability."
In Shadow Ranch, everyone's favorite teen detective is off on a new sleuthing adventure, complete with all the twists and turns readers - and game players - have come to love in a Nancy Drew mystery. But in this app adventure, both reading and game play are critical to solving the mystery. And, there's more than one way to solve this mystery.
Nancy, along with best friends Bess and George, travel to Arizona and the rustic Shadow Ranch. But when they arrive, Nancy quickly discovers that Shadow Ranch hides a sinister past. A recent rash of ghost sightings and a series of accidents are driving customers away. It's only a matter of time before the ranch closes its doors for good. Play the story to piece together the mysterious events and uncover the dark secret before it's too late. There are items to collect, numerous hidden object and other mini-games to solve, and stories to unlock. Shadow Ranch can be read and played repeatedly to fully explore all the twists and turns.
"Nancy Drew has and continues to inspire girls and women the world over," continues Gaiser. "By introducing a modern twist to this timeless classic, we expect to see more moms and daughters, grandparents and grandkids, and mystery-lovers of any age embrace the never-give-up attitude of Nancy Drew."
