Language differences are a pretty accepted thing in every Language other than English lmao, like in most European languages it would certainly translate as Mayan yet no one ever complains because that’s how languages work, it’s only in the uptight Anglo sphere do we have people demanding they only use 100% native language processes in naming of places and cultures, that is wild because no one else does it
@@dopaminedreams1122 It's more that they know mayan isn't correct. In quite a few languages it's "the Maya" not mayan, with mayan being a near exclusively english name, and the ones that also use mayan over Maya are the ones who got the term from English in the first place. If you know you're addressing someone incorrectly, you don't keeping doing it even after you know it's wrong, unless you're intentionally being rude.
I weirdly love the pacing of this game, just living your life, doing your job, when suddenly, something unexpected happens, forcing you to put your detective cap on to solve the mystery
I agree, I kind of enjoy the lead up before the bigger mystery starts. It makes it feel more grounded and natural and I wish they had done something similar in other games. Shadow ranch also gave me similar feelings
I told my mum “this is a good day” “one of my favourite youtubers is playing a new game in my favourite series of hers: new Nancy drew episode!” And she said “awww I love Nancy Drew!” We are a Nancy Drew loving Family 💜
and then, idk about you, but i was slightly disappointed when the whole thing turned into a giant history lesson on the maya and there wasn't a whole lot of the fun Nancy Drew stuff xD; i mean it was fine, but it was a liiittle bit Maya-history heavy....
@@haydennault5342 The last one I read was "Secret of Shadow Ranch" book 5 of the original series. That is the first one with Bess and George. I have picked-up the next 5 books, but I took a break to catch up on a few other things.
@@haydennault5342 I do not know how far I will go and I did not know about the Pen Name until I did some research. When I was a kid I read a few Hardy Boys books, but did not start at the begining. I may try a few books from the more recent series. So far I have enjoyed the original series. Even though they are from the 1930s, when times were very different for women, it is nice to see such a strong female protagonist. She does get out of some situations too easily in the first couple of books, but by book 4, people are actively trying to kill her. I think she is a great role model for young girls and boys.
@@Tazerboy_10 idiot her comment is not a joke and yet you are making fun of it. What kind of a person are you what if you post that your mother died and you saw a comment saying really haha very funny idiot. How do you feel.
As someone who is in native American studies and we just did the Mayan's I can say for the most part Gab is saying all the words right, the Mayans have a great history too it's really fascinating
I love that you're giving the Nancy Drew games the attention they deserve! They were such a formative part of my childhood and, as a teacher now, I can't help but love games that are as educational as they are fun. Thank you so, so, much, Gabs!
It’s funny the game clearly assumes you’d beeline it to the monolith in order to trigger the theft and dialogue with Sinclair. I didn’t know you could get all the way through your task list before starting the mystery!
0:52 Lmao I swear every time I hear a word beach or bitch, or beech in this case, I have an incredibly strong impulse to say “DETECTIVE BEEEEECH” out loud (and tbh I often do) so I’m glad it has stuck with you too 😂
This Nancy Drew game was so much fun on stream! I didn't expect it to go up on UA-cam so quickly! Skipping ahead a little (since I only just finished this stream recently) One thing that I appreciate the most about this game is at around 1:29:10 when talking about stolen artwork. It's so true. Majority of the artifacts and art we see in museums were stolen / illegally traded and it makes me so sad. I am glad this game is teaching kids (and hell even adults) about the truth of a lot of museums. I won't spoil the end since this will be in two parts, but this Nancy Drew was quite the adventure. Also these edits? *chefs kiss* Always happy to see Nancy on my sub page.
Oh yes, i was nervous going into this video fearing that this issue would be dismissed. As a guatemalan i can't tell you how frustrating it is to have to travel to Germany, France or Spain to catch a glimpse of the codexes they stole from us
You have no idea how excited I got seeing this go up. When you first started playing Nancy drew games I was kinda like meh avoids not my thing then watched one and got hooked… three days later and watching the entire playlist to find a new one. THANK U SO MUCH
Holy cow, this was one of the first full length CD-rom games I finished when I was a kid. I honestly didnt realize how many other people were such fans of it!
I just ran outside and squealed with glee to my husband telling him you had uploaded a new Nancy Drew video! I've played ND games many times over the years and they'll always be a favorite. So happy you're playing them!!!
I wish I could share my notes from when I played this game. They're so in depth and have lots of drawings lol. Not to give away the answers but to show educational and how challenging this edition of the Nancy Drew sereis is. I really love this one and love watching you play!
When Gab said "Jade, staircases! Every Sundays!" I laughed out loud because coincidentally I just finished the Mr Qi's Skull Cavern Mine challenge (the one where you have to reach level 100, but you can eat and drink) and I exchanged so many jades just now for staircases 😂 Anyway, nothing but sitting back and relax while watching a Nancy Drew gameplay to calm my still erratic beating heart 🤣
The types of brain injury are coup and contracoup. Coup is where the point of impact was and contracoup is the rebound of the brain hitting the skull. Concussion is caused by one or both
lol that DC metro map hit me square in the face with nostalgia, it's the real map with the right colors and everything. I used to ride the orange line quite a lot. I love how well researched these games always are. Also "beeeeeeeech" is my favorite thing to come out of this series 😂
I watched you stream this and will probably watch this yt vid many times over. This was my first Nancy drew game, and a game my dad and I played through together. He passed away just short of a year ago. Thank you for playing through this, bittersweet nostalgia with my favorite streamer ❤️
I'm so happy that you're aiding to give the ND games the recognition they deserve! I love these games SO much! (I literally played Stay Tuned for Danger last night) They are such a big and formative part of my childhood 💖💕
I know it's a comment in an old video, but I've loved going through your Nancy Drew videos! It's so relaxing to watch a little bit of them before I go to bed after working overtime. I'm working on my master's degree in Museum Studies and one of my favorite professors background is Mesoamerican Art, so we learned a lot about Mayan art. I can't wait to see how bad (or how good) this one is.
OMG I love to get high and watch gab smolder solve puzzles at home. Is so relaxing, specially when you are high and she solves a puzzle and you are like “I knew it” but you didn’t know shit LoL cause you are tripping 😂🤣. Fun times with me myself and I.
this is probably my favorite nancy drew video Gab has done because 1) the language gymnastics when she, a native Dutch speaker, explains in English that she's pronouncing a Spanish phrase with a Japanese accent. And 2) BEEEEEEECH
Currently working through all Nancy Drew games and man it is the best. No more needs to be said. And I’m learning a lot along the way! Perfect way to enjoy summer 😊
i’ve been binge watching all of your nancy drew videos lol i’m obsessed!! i can’t wait for you to play warnings at waverly academy, the captive curse, the phantom of venice and alibi in the ashes! they’re my favs :)
Your Nancy Drew playthroughs are my favorite thing to watch - this series is such a comfort to me (and honestly, most of this comment section) it feels so nice when you upload a new one because I know I have two hours of pure nostalgia ahead of me and an entire comment section full of people who love the games as much as I do. I'm so glad you bought them all - I can't wait for Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon! Secret of the Scarlet Hand was the first Nancy Drew game I played/beat and this was such a trip down memory lane.
I've never played a Nancy Drew game before but I did play the detective series Mystery Case Files and it was fun to see someone post stuff like this genre
Actually, what he calls a "cognitive memory" is actually semantic memory. Sensory memory would depend on if it brings up personal memories or more factual memories. If it brings back personal memories, it would be episodic memory. The things the nurse talks about are not really a thing.
Haha, I was thinking that while watching. Gab was saying that the nurse was suspicious, and I was thinking the same thing given that the “nurse” doesn’t even seem to know what he’s talking about in terms of memory
my favorite day! Thanks for playing these and filling so many people with nostalgia and joy! Fun fact: "sempre ubi sub ubi" means "Always where under where" so it's a play on words, ha. Also the parrot lou lou says it to Nancy in Blackmoor manor. Those are my favorite type of call backs!
OMFG A NANCY DREW GABBERS? WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS. I am TERRIBLE at these games but I love the nostalgia and the voice acting. These are the perfect games for your chill vibes channel. I love them and rewatch them a lot. This makes me SO HAPPY, THANK YOU!!!
I never played Nancy Drew games as a kid, but watching these videos have made me really want to try them. And now being an adult with a job I bought a "best of" off steam and have been enjoying these myself. They can get seriously difficult to figure out... But once I finish I like to watch you play them, super relaxing and entertaining. Thank you for the content Gab! :)
She’s actually got a few games where she has to side jobs during the case 😂 shadow ranch, waverly academy, white wolf of icicle creek and I’m sure there are others I’m not thinking of. We could always petition gab to play one of those !!
Getting to watch you play these brings me so much joy! I could never afford them when I was a kid and always wanted to play them. So I'm happy I'm getting to see one of my favorites play through them!
Watching your Nancy play play throughs has inspired me to go back and play all the games I never got to. I’m watching your videos as I finish them. I just finished this one today and the whole time I was playing it, I was excited to watch you play and see if you got stuck where I did 😂
Watched this to relax after a long work week, which included lots of reading and drafting of addendums, and somehow one of Nancy's tasks has to do with "addenda" WHYYYYY lol --a triggered lawyer
I just finished replaying this one after many years and I was surprised to see you were able to do the audio challenge without even getting headphones! Also, if you had gone behind the counter before finding the doorknob you can use the keycard to unlock the door and get the headphones. So cool to see someone else play and see the variation permitted in how you do things!
Always love a new Nancy Drew video! Very happy and surprised there's one about Mayans and Guatemala specifically! I'm really curious now how much the knowledge has changed since this game was made as there's always new things to learn and debunk, especially of Latin American cultures. I do want to state though, that the Mayans didn't believe the world was ending. Like a few other cultures, they believed in a cyclical calendar, so once you got to the end of the Mayan calendar, it just went to the next cycle. It was simply a misinterpretation that then got popularized as it seemed more dramatic to have it seem like the Mayan's thought the world would end. Thank you for playing and posting!
I’m dead not me noticing the DMV (D.C, Maryland, Virginia) metro line as soon as it popped up (09:30) lmaoooo!!! Wishing i had purchased this back in the days lol i gasped and yelled “stay off the redline!”🤣 Realizing i did actually have this game, but was too young to ride the metro lol
Just gonna throw this out there, but I LOVE that you said it reminds you of "El Dorado" because yes! Many aspects of that movie were inspired from Mayan and Aztec culture. In fact, the ball game that is referred to in the exhibit is the one they play in the movie. Even cooler, that is the game the ancient cultures ACTUALLY PLAYED (minus the cute armadillo)!! I studied Ancient Andean Art History in university, and I adored this time period. I even got the privilege of visiting my State's museum where there is a private collection of Ancient Andean artifacts. I got to choose a handful of items to research and present to museum visitors in a psuedo-pop-up exhibition. Quite exciting, seeing as otherwise the items would have never been shown to the public. Seeing aspects of it played out in the game makes me so excited, and I feel like I could probably write out an essay in the comments about all of the amazing aspects of Ancient Andean culture. Anyway, I love the Nancy Drew games, and I love hanging out with you. Stay healthy, be happy, and I can't wait to see the next part!
I’m sorry but the fall down the stairs is always hilarious to me 🤭 the sound effects and growing up with these games really makes me loose it every time.
The day before you started streaming this, I decided to replay it because I figured it had been a while since the last Nancy stream and I knew this one would be next. And then I slept in and only caught the last 15 minutes of the stream, lol. My husband grew up in the area where this game takes place so his mom got this game for the family when it was somewhat new. They never finished it because they got stuck, I think on the quiz questions. A task list and more easily accessible journal probably would've been *very* helpful for them. I wish the phone stuff was more user-friendly, too. Nancy doesn't write down the numbers for you (except on her laptop), it isn't clear that you can only do work calls in the museum, and the whole "dial 1 before the area code if the area code isn't a local one" thing is weird. The plaques of Beeeeeech Hill donors are mostly just made up names, I think. Frou Frou LaBeu and Stimey McGruff certainly seem made up, anyway. But there's also someone whose last name is Falcone (Nicholas's family?) and Punchy LaRue, which is one of the voice actresses for Bess and also a name Nancy uses in a future game, hehe. I never figured out the Pascal's Triangle thing. When I play Bul, I just make the computer pass if it's getting close to me and hope for the best. The "semper ubi sub ubi" thing Joanna says is Latin for "always wear underwear." Loulou also says that sometimes (or at least once when you ask her if she knows Latin) in Blackmoor Manor. A little tip in case anyone plays this on their own: you can skip a few seconds of cutscene if you click while you're on the metro. Zoom around the DC area with even more unrealistic speed! :D And like the laptop maze in Haunted Mansion, you can hit M on your keyboard to make a map show up when doing the maze in the second area of the temple.
i remember trying to play a Nancy Drew game when i was a kid but getting too scared of the music, i'm glad I'm getting to see you play it, a real blast from the past
Omg just found this when I was looking for a video to watch before I go to bed 😭 I love your Nancy Drew playthroughs so much! Theyre so cozy and comforting :) They give similar vibes of when youre relaxing inside a toasty house on a cold fall/winter night ♥️
Nancy drew is some of my favorite games especially from my childhood I can’t wait for you to get certain ones thank you gab for giving these games the shine they so dearly deserve they really do make my day!
I was just finishing binging your Nancy Drew series. Dropping this video was so well timed for me. I love these and how much fun you have with puzzles and their voice acting! 💕

"I can't mess with this without permission"
Since when has a little thing like "permission" ever stopped Nancy from being nosy?
Lol I know this comment is old but seriously. She's trespassing and breaking and entering in every single story. 😂
"... had to sell my own grandmother to get it" *turns around to slowly looks at you creepily*
“How much would YOU go for, Nancy?”
The fact that they say Maya and not "Mayan" warms my heart. They've obviously invested proper research! 😊

Watching your Nancy play play throughs has inspired me to go back and play all the games I never got to. I’m watching your videos as I finish them. I just finished this one today and the whole time I was playing it, I was excited to watch you play and see if you got stuck where I did 😂
Nancy Drew games are some of my favorite content! I got so excited when this popped up!
As someone born and raised in dc I appreciate the research and lengths that they been to make this soooooooo accurate!
Watched this to relax after a long work week, which included lots of reading and drafting of addendums, and somehow one of Nancy's tasks has to do with "addenda" WHYYYYY lol --a triggered lawyer
I just finished replaying this one after many years and I was surprised to see you were able to do the audio challenge without even getting headphones! Also, if you had gone behind the counter before finding the doorknob you can use the keycard to unlock the door and get the headphones. So cool to see someone else play and see the variation permitted in how you do things!
Always love a new Nancy Drew video! Very happy and surprised there's one about Mayans and Guatemala specifically! I'm really curious now how much the knowledge has changed since this game was made as there's always new things to learn and debunk, especially of Latin American cultures.
I do want to state though, that the Mayans didn't believe the world was ending. Like a few other cultures, they believed in a cyclical calendar, so once you got to the end of the Mayan calendar, it just went to the next cycle. It was simply a misinterpretation that then got popularized as it seemed more dramatic to have it seem like the Mayan's thought the world would end.
Thank you for playing and posting!
I’m dead not me noticing the DMV (D.C, Maryland, Virginia) metro line as soon as it popped up (09:30) lmaoooo!!! Wishing i had purchased this back in the days lol i gasped and yelled “stay off the redline!”🤣
Realizing i did actually have this game, but was too young to ride the metro lol
Alejandro calling Nancy out on her colonial racism is giving me LIFE
Just gonna throw this out there, but I LOVE that you said it reminds you of "El Dorado" because yes! Many aspects of that movie were inspired from Mayan and Aztec culture. In fact, the ball game that is referred to in the exhibit is the one they play in the movie. Even cooler, that is the game the ancient cultures ACTUALLY PLAYED (minus the cute armadillo)!!
I studied Ancient Andean Art History in university, and I adored this time period. I even got the privilege of visiting my State's museum where there is a private collection of Ancient Andean artifacts. I got to choose a handful of items to research and present to museum visitors in a psuedo-pop-up exhibition. Quite exciting, seeing as otherwise the items would have never been shown to the public.
Seeing aspects of it played out in the game makes me so excited, and I feel like I could probably write out an essay in the comments about all of the amazing aspects of Ancient Andean culture.
Anyway, I love the Nancy Drew games, and I love hanging out with you. Stay healthy, be happy, and I can't wait to see the next part!
I’m sorry but the fall down the stairs is always hilarious to me 🤭 the sound effects and growing up with these games really makes me loose it every time.
This is the first ND game I received as a kid (along with Ghost Dogs of Moon Lake) and got me so into the game series! Thanks for showing
Yes loved the ghost dogs one hope she does that one too
@@monikaliane me too! I think she’d love it
Was able to catch bits and pieces of the streams for this, I’m glad I’ll be able to see it in full. c:
Native Kansan here! I love how you say "Topeka". Way more exotic sounding than "Tuh-pee-kuh". 😂
ahh yes I love your nancy drew playthroughs so much! so fun and cosy 🥰
Yessss! Love seeing you play Nancy Drew games! Played them growing up and its nice to see them getting more notice 👏🏻💙
YES!!! Thank you for playing more Nancy Drew :) I love how chill you are and it makes these seem so fun
The day before you started streaming this, I decided to replay it because I figured it had been a while since the last Nancy stream and I knew this one would be next. And then I slept in and only caught the last 15 minutes of the stream, lol.
My husband grew up in the area where this game takes place so his mom got this game for the family when it was somewhat new. They never finished it because they got stuck, I think on the quiz questions. A task list and more easily accessible journal probably would've been *very* helpful for them. I wish the phone stuff was more user-friendly, too. Nancy doesn't write down the numbers for you (except on her laptop), it isn't clear that you can only do work calls in the museum, and the whole "dial 1 before the area code if the area code isn't a local one" thing is weird.
The plaques of Beeeeeech Hill donors are mostly just made up names, I think. Frou Frou LaBeu and Stimey McGruff certainly seem made up, anyway. But there's also someone whose last name is Falcone (Nicholas's family?) and Punchy LaRue, which is one of the voice actresses for Bess and also a name Nancy uses in a future game, hehe.
I never figured out the Pascal's Triangle thing. When I play Bul, I just make the computer pass if it's getting close to me and hope for the best.
The "semper ubi sub ubi" thing Joanna says is Latin for "always wear underwear." Loulou also says that sometimes (or at least once when you ask her if she knows Latin) in Blackmoor Manor.
A little tip in case anyone plays this on their own: you can skip a few seconds of cutscene if you click while you're on the metro. Zoom around the DC area with even more unrealistic speed! :D And like the laptop maze in Haunted Mansion, you can hit M on your keyboard to make a map show up when doing the maze in the second area of the temple.
i remember trying to play a Nancy Drew game when i was a kid but getting too scared of the music, i'm glad I'm getting to see you play it, a real blast from the past
So excited!!! I played this when I was younger and got nightmares and never finished it! Excited to see it all the way through.
Yess! Always love to see more nancy drew! I hope you’re enjoying it Gab! ❤️
THIS is where Oobie Saboobie comes from!
Recently with all the stress from college Gabs videos are my go to videos just to relax
Great job on the gameplay as always! I'm a nancy drew PC game fan so watching this evoke such nostalgia about my childhood.
Seeing you okay these Nancy Drew games makes me really happy 🥰
Omg just found this when I was looking for a video to watch before I go to bed 😭 I love your Nancy Drew playthroughs so much! Theyre so cozy and comforting :) They give similar vibes of when youre relaxing inside a toasty house on a cold fall/winter night ♥️
I learned way too late about Nancy Drew, but playing alongside is the most fun! I can’t wait to next time!
Yes! At long last. I was almost afraid Gab forgot about Nancy Drew Games.
Oh I do so adore your Nancy drew playthroughs. I was wondering if anyone would bring up provenance, glad Alejandro did. He's 100% right.
Nancy drew is some of my favorite games especially from my childhood I can’t wait for you to get certain ones thank you gab for giving these games the shine they so dearly deserve they really do make my day!
Omg I love this Nancy Drew game the most. I love all but this one has to be one of my favorites! I am so glad to watch you play it!
I was just finishing binging your Nancy Drew series. Dropping this video was so well timed for me. I love these and how much fun you have with puzzles and their voice acting! 💕
I SHRIEKED when I saw this in my sub box. A new cozy Nancy vod with Gab is exactly what I need today.
