Oh god I know!!! Its always been my dream to find one lol. Or even better run into a mystery. Seriously, how does she manage to just run into a mystery EVERYWHERE she goes.
Before this video came out, I actually emailed HER about what happened to Bob (because I rewatched all of Arglefumph's walkthrough and realized we never got an answer about it). I got an answer saying that the next morning they went out and found Bob and that he's the horse Nancy's riding in the picture at the end. YAY, BOB! :D #closureforbob2017
Lol, agreed. But perhaps they didn't want to make her uncomfortable? Despite her being 18, she is virtually alone with three guys... Just a thought, though. I like that Dave tips his hat. ;)
omg, I remember wanting to date Dave SO BAD. I even went back to a previously saved game so I could try all my reply options 😂😂 12 year old me was just heartbroken (and every time I've played it since lol)
There's a fun glitch at the end where Shorty says "Only one room away, Nancy!" and if you walk into another room, the audio starts over and I think the timer for him going through the last room resets, so you can just spin in a circle and hear him say it over and over again.
I have a comment about the electrician's manual. Sure it's never verbally explained by anyone, but the culprits needed it to cut the wire on the second night at Shadow Ranch without injuring themselves. Also the paper Shorty's holding at the end of the game, they're the directions for the cliff dwellings maze. They have to be if he had to read the paper in order to know to go through the door with the green marker.
The electricians manual is covered in glow dust because the co-culprits spilled it on the book. Also, glow dust and the electricians manual are both elements of the same night's horse haunt
Out of all the horse questions Tex asks you before you're allowed to ride, I'm pretty sure I didn't learn all of them (definitely not the mule or who bred the appaloosas) during my SIX YEARS of horseback riding. I mean, yeah, I learned all the parts of a horse and the colors because the stable had me groom the horse I was riding before AND after riding (that and horses were and still are a huge special interest of mine), and how to put together a bridle, and how to feed horses. Then again, I took riding lessons for years AND went to horse camp several times in which we did some of the care tasks. Would I expect someone to be able to convert hands to feet/inches off the top of their head? No, I could never do that even when I was doing riding. I'd expect them to know what to do if they lose control of the horse while riding, how to properly tie a horse (no horse I've met would stay in the same spot for THAT long), stuff they'd actually use. Also, Nancy does not groom the horses after taking the saddle off. Horses sweat. You need to brush their coats and pick out their hooves after you go riding (that's where the frog question would've come in handy). If the horses I rode got sweaty under a small English saddle after about an hour of riding in the midwest, indoors, then those horses should be DRENCHED. Never really thought about it much up until now.
I always thought it was funny that Nancy took a picture of Dave from behind while he was dealing with her luggage at the airport. What a stalker lol. Also I always thought it looked like Dave was peeing on the chicken coop
Although it's presented as a bad thing, an amateur is a person who doesn't get paid for doing a job or profession. No one ever pays Nancy, so the title is there to stay.
Agreed! It goes back to the word 'amateur' coming from the word for love. An amateur is someone who does stuff for love. Amateur theatre, for example, is performed by people who are doing it for the love of acting. So someone who's an absolutely pro can do whatever they're paid to do for free, and they'd be an amateur. A lawyer who takes a case pro bono is an amateur, as long as they're doing the case because they love doing their job. Nancy loves puzzles, so she's an amateur detective; and, as you say, the fact that she doesn't get paid marks the difference.
That’s kinda what I don’t understand honestly...people call her up sometimes and ask her to solve their mystery’s, yet she doesn’t get paid? She’s pretty much a professional at this point and would be totally justified if she were to start charging for these near death experiences, but she...doesn’t.
@@lunaoak6741 The Secret of Shadow Ranch is A Great Game but I'm with Michael Gray or Arglephumph about The Vegetables Puzzle and this Game has way too many Chores that is definitely something that could easily be edited if Her Interactive or A fan or A hater decides to Remaster this Game
There's no salt in that cake recipe, which is another problem. I've made the cake and it tasted pretty bleh, so I added salt the next time I made it and it was way better. What kind of cake recipe doesn't include salt??
I made it one time. It was pretty plain and I haven't made it again. The thing I remember most about it is that the recipe in-game is *huge*. Like nobody pours all that in a single cake pan.
I always kind of thought it had to do with sewing (she used to own/run a dress shop, even if she didn't make the dresses sold there) or maybe knitting. She seems like the kind of woman to do those kinds of crafts.
I definitely agree with the one where Nancy doesn't save any of Dirk's letters or clues, in case they needed to be re-read. The game design also didn't allow for important instructions (like the code key) to be visible while you're decoding. I sometimes I don't finish games because I get stuck. If the player is just wandering around since one of the arrowheads are missing, or you don't realize to put the random tuning fork box on the counter, a new hint of some kind should be triggered. At one point, the "journal" told me to go back to the ranch and rest when an arrowhead still needed to be picked up at Cougar Bend. Next game, I guess I'll play on Junior. I wanted to change back halfway through but couldn't.
When Nancy gets a game over sequence for picking unripe vegetables, Uncle Ed says they are going to get scurvy. The vegetables that are grown on the ranch don't have enough vitamin C to prevent scurvy - citrus fruits do.
I saw that recommended as something to mark against the game, but, um...that would have required me to research what scurvy is, so I just left it out. Feel free to mark "too lazy to do research" against me.
I've got a couple of sins to add. First of all, why are these country boys letting Nancy, a girl who has never been much exposed to country life, do all of these chores BY HERSELF, especially if that would mean putting the lives of the animals in jeopardy? There is no way practical-minded cowboy would let an inexperienced teenager, even if she is technically of adult age, do all of these chores with no supervision, whatsoever. Finally, I would just like to point out a pretty disgusting fact when it comes to chickens. You know that moment in the game when the egg basket breaks and the eggs get cracked? You're not supposed to let eggs break in the chicken coop, or.... the chickens will eat them. Yeah, no joke, they will actually eat any of their own eggs that have been cracked open. I am a farm girl, and I did not know this until my family had recently got chickens. Anyway, this means that Nancy would also have gotten into trouble because of this one mishap. That's my two cents on the matter. Also, the pink stuff in the game is apparently cow feed.
Blue W that would be sad but a plot twist hehe. I always thought they needed to make a game where it's Nancy and Ned's wedding day and something horrible happens. That would be quite interesting.
In Water's Edge I think you can have Dave as your phone background AND you can't call Ned. Which makes me think they're going through tough times right then.
I take notes during my first playthrough of the game, then type up all the puzzle solutions/necessary things on a small slip of paper for replays. Sometimes, though, I'll put the paper aside and do things the old-fashioned way.
I took notes in the early games, when they sent you a Nancy Drew notebook with each game. After Nancy starts using a journal, I only made notes for a few things per game. Most of them on the same sheet of paper.
Thanks for the upload! This was the second Nancy Drew game I played but it has always been my favorite of the earlier set. I completely agree with the 25 point deduction regarding the inability to date Dave.
I just found this video. Absolutely true and hilarious! Thanks! One more I'd like to add: why do all the ranch hands sound like they're from Texas or Alabama or Tennessee? I've lived in Arizona my entire life and the only people I know who sound like those ranch hands moved here from one of the states I mentioned previously.
Did you know that if you solve the basket puzzle when those two eggs that are supposed to tip you off that the basket is broken are in the same room/scene you can pick up the eggs and they will magically fall out of the fixed hole in the basket?
94. well if you ask Shorty on Day 3 if you can have a piece he does bring up that "Tex Really liked it by the way" 109: CATTLE FEED 118: Unless it has something to do with the powerlines
I went back and replayed Day Three, based on people's comments here, and I _still_ can't get anyone to talk about Tex's birthday! I am so sad. The manual MIGHT be related to the power line being cut, except you don't need a manual for that. You just need a pair of scissors. Nancy was watching the power line get cut, too. How did the culprit do that, while NOT being visible?
The only way I get a comment is if the very first thing on day three Nancy looks at the cake. It will be almost entirely gone and Shorty will say Tex liked it. I find if you do ANYTHING else first it doesn't happen.
Did no one notice that it totally looked/sounded like Dave was peeing? There was a sound of a stream or wind or something in the background with his back turned around and it totally looked like that, couldn't help laughing every time Nancy went to talk to him...
The pink stuff in the bin is some sort of nutritional feed, for cows if I remember correctly. There's a bag or a poster around, but I don't recall if you can actually look at it. It's really just a useless thing that you never get any context for, and is probably just there to trick you into poisoning the horses with pink foam.
You've made it to number ten! Congratulations!! Side note: you should include links to previous videos in the description or at the end so that people who stumble across this video for the first time can find your other EWW ND videos and watch them all.
#85 is ironic:) misspelling Sonny June while pointing out the misspelling of Sonny June:) We love these videos, though! Literally laugh out loud funny!
I literally just got done playing this game the other day and was going over in my mind all of the things wrong with it. I'm so glad he finally posted a video for this game. I can't wait to see more!
Oh man I hated those vegetable mini games. This had to be one of the few ND games where I dreaded the mini games in it because it was either tedious or just repetitive.
#15 was just perfect, with bonus points for the editing of the book. 😂 The time and effort you must put in these are worth it for sure! Just an add on, Meryl probably had poor spelling since he was relatively uneducated at the time, but he was also sheriff so I'd think he'd have a bit more education under his belt? Hmm... either way, if the guy does have trouble writing, he still has pretty neat handwriting.
I thought you would go on more about the lasso puzzle coz My GOD I couldn't get it for the life of me and then the game was like HA HA guess what!? You gotta do it 5 MORE TIMES!!!!!! I Was so done at that point.
I love these games but your everything wrong videos are so funny!!! love them! and thanks for talking about that blue arrowhead. I was stuck on that for DAYS!!!!!
A couple of extra points: •Shorty was working with bank robbers but we never SEE the bank robbers. So the end result of just seeing Shorty implies that he worked alone. •Bess and George don’t physically show up at any point in the game. Even when they do, they’re barely in photos at the end. I don’t know about you but it seems weird that she’s staying at their aunt and uncle’s without any of them. •When Dave asks out Nancy, neither of the options are firmly stating that she has a boyfriend. The first one just says sort of. Poor Ned.
8:58 actually you can look at the recipe while cooking, you need to step back and Nancy`s inventory will work (and i like this puzzle with vegetables lmao)
This was the first Nancy Drew game that I played, it resulted with me and my mother joking about The Proper Respect For Vegetables ever since. I was also lucky enough to get the game-breaking bugs on BOTH Shadow Ranch AND Scarlet Hand.
#32-#34: I feel like Michael has a certain anger toward this chore ;P #63- hehe My brain went to how Castle (from Castle) remembers random stuff for book research.
At 2:13 I wholeheartedly agree with you. Nancy is not an amateur anymore; and, unless she’s undercover, she needs to stop denying who she is. And no, Nancy, being modest and polite won’t help you this time. It’s time to stop treating your profession like a side hobby and start getting paid for your work.
She mentions during one of the calls that if she doesn't stay with Ed, he will get out of bed and leave the hospital. He denies that and she tells him to hush.
For 115: the culprit (or rather the culprit's buddies) gets into Cappy's via the broken window to the piano's right. Or, to the left of the table next to the sleeping bag that the culprit's buddy is using while hiding there.
I will be honest: This was not my favorite Nancy Drew games long before UA-cam and Arglefumph's channel was around and I had to get help off the Her Interactive forum. After watching the top ten best and worst, I agree 100% with Michael because the reasons why I never liked the game correlate his reasons. The vegetable puzzle can suck it. I liked the music and the actual storyline, but the veggie puzzle killed it for me. Also, the glitch does exist. But before UA-cam, you'd never know unless you were active in the HI forums. So I was stuck and frustrated for weeks. lol. Now I want to play it again now that I am older. Thanks Michael for this. I hope you do the rest because your EWW ND Game videos make my days a little bit better when I watch them because I agree.
Nancy Drew gave me false expectations on how many secret passages I'd find in my life.
Oh god I know!!! Its always been my dream to find one lol. Or even better run into a mystery. Seriously, how does she manage to just run into a mystery EVERYWHERE she goes.
Ikr?
Nancy herself, IS the mystery
I like how when Dave asks Nancy if she's seeing anyone, the game only gives you two possible responses _and neither of them are 'yes'._ Poor Ned!
Seriously! Like, Ned is Nancy’s boyfriend. Why is he NOT an option in this conversation?
25 sins for not being able to date Dave XD Love it.
But it's not a dating game
He's not my type. 🤷♀️
25 sins isn't enough 😭

“until you develop a proper respect for produce” is something I still quote to annoy my friend 😂
The day after you make the cake, go back to it and click on it to ask Shorty if you can eat a piece, then he'll tell you Tex really liked it.
I saw it on the counter, but never clicked on it. This gives me so much closure.
I have a comment about the electrician's manual.

•Bess and George don’t physically show up at any point in the game. Even when they do, they’re barely in photos at the end. I don’t know about you but it seems weird that she’s staying at their aunt and uncle’s without any of them.
•When Dave asks out Nancy, neither of the options are firmly stating that she has a boyfriend. The first one just says sort of. Poor Ned.
my goodness, why are these so fun XD
ahaha I wonder if the chicken Dave is in love with is the chicken of doom
You actually do hear from Shorty that Tex liked the cake, but I agree!
8:58 actually you can look at the recipe while cooking, you need to step back and Nancy`s inventory will work (and i like this puzzle with vegetables lmao)
188: the piece of paper in shortys hand a copy of the directions of how to get through the maze
Man I love this series
Bob is love, Bob is life. #closureforBob 2017
This made me laugh way more than it should have! 😂😂😂😂😂 love it
This was the first Nancy Drew game that I played, it resulted with me and my mother joking about The Proper Respect For Vegetables ever since. I was also lucky enough to get the game-breaking bugs on BOTH Shadow Ranch AND Scarlet Hand.
4:42. HAHA! Maybe he *is* Batman.
YESSSS! I love this series so much!
The first one made me cry it was so funny!! Lol
I related to so many of these while playing this game! Keep up the good work! You should do Danger by Design or Alibi in the Ashes next!
Wow Michael! How can anyone be THIS observant?
So sassy, I love it! This is by far my favorite video series of yours!
Maybe jail door just has a latch which needs a key to open, and has some sort of spring to close it when nothing stops it from closing.
"Is he in love with one of the chickens or something?"
He's planning on how he's gonna cook them 😂
I need more of these. love them
SOOO happy to see this!
Also, where did Shorty get the lamb meat? The only animals we see on the ranch are horses, chickens, and cows.
#32-#34: I feel like Michael has a certain anger toward this chore ;P
#63- hehe My brain went to how Castle (from Castle) remembers random stuff for book research.
I'm the same way when it comes to anything I've studied extensively. Charleena's memory comes as no surprise to me.
@@seannolan9857 Oh Yeah She has A Great Memory She doesn't even remember Nancy in Last Train to Bluemoon Canyon
Maybe Dave was raised by chickens and that's why he's at the coop?
At 2:13 I wholeheartedly agree with you. Nancy is not an amateur anymore; and, unless she’s undercover, she needs to stop denying who she is. And no, Nancy, being modest and polite won’t help you this time. It’s time to stop treating your profession like a side hobby and start getting paid for your work.
Thank you for making this video. Reminded me of making the cake in real life it was pretty good.
Dave is the best part of this game.
YES what about Bob?!? That always irked me!
Ed was the only one bit by the snake, right? So why does Bet need to be at the hospital with him 24-7?
She mentions during one of the calls that if she doesn't stay with Ed, he will get out of bed and leave the hospital. He denies that and she tells him to hush.
Can't wait for THE Curse of Blackmoor Manor!
These are better than the originals. I love these videos so much! :D
I love this game but I never noticed just how many puzzles I don't like in it lolol
For 115: the culprit (or rather the culprit's buddies) gets into Cappy's via the broken window to the piano's right. Or, to the left of the table next to the sleeping bag that the culprit's buddy is using while hiding there.
YESSS I've been waiting for this >:^)
The first sin isn't an issue thanks.
seeing daves butt should not be given a sin when its actually a blessing
I will be honest: This was not my favorite Nancy Drew games long before UA-cam and Arglefumph's channel was around and I had to get help off the Her Interactive forum. After watching the top ten best and worst, I agree 100% with Michael because the reasons why I never liked the game correlate his reasons. The vegetable puzzle can suck it. I liked the music and the actual storyline, but the veggie puzzle killed it for me. Also, the glitch does exist. But before UA-cam, you'd never know unless you were active in the HI forums. So I was stuck and frustrated for weeks. lol. Now I want to play it again now that I am older. Thanks Michael for this. I hope you do the rest because your EWW ND Game videos make my days a little bit better when I watch them because I agree.
