    Seeing Gab learn about horses made me smile as a horse owner. I own a horse whom I call my "large dalmatian" because he's a spotted horse. His tail is multi-color cause he has light brown/blondish mixed with dark brown. He's a big sweet boy and is more so just a companion than anything.

    • @Wistful_Thinking
      @Wistful_Thinking 2 роки тому +3

      Also own chickens and can confirm- they will bite you. Most of our hens are used to us so they may just fuss a little when we're retrieving the eggs. However one hen will bite down pinching your skin in her beak and twist. It really fucking hurts and she will break the skin so we usually just get her eggs when she's not there. Then we have my baby girl who I raised who ACTS like she's gonna bite you but doesn't. She just tries to intimidate which works on people who don't know she's really a sweet fluffy baby. A lot of people don't realize chickens do have individual personalities, some more than others. They also tend to mimic whatever creatures their surrounded by. I used to have a rooster who was in love with me and would follow me everywhere I went. He even would do the little guiding chicken dance around me and act like I was his hen lmao

      Dave's story implies Francis found out some other way, so it's possible other people found out the same way she did. Or even that it's a kind of folklore for his family and they could tell people.
      Edit: and Charleena references a rumor about the treasure hunt around 1:33:00 which basically confirms word got out some other way.

    I never played these as a kid so it's fun to watch you play and try to figure out who's behind everything. I've noticed that it's seems to be the one who has the least going on. Like in this one, Tex had the stuff with his sister and then Mary, who herself had the land deal, and Dave admitted to looking for the treasure because of family ties and was helping you out, leaving Shorty as the off man out. Curious to see if that pattern continues.

    this was my first nancy drew game!! the little horse girl in me was drawn to the horse on the packaging and the rest is history. I’ve played all the ND games but this one will always be my favorite ❤️

    Tip! If you hit the web and then the dictionary on the phone in an area with no service you can make calls! It helps a lot and saves you the time!

      The pacing is one of the best imo. I know a lot of people get irritated with the “constantly doing the same task” puzzles (ie picking veggies and eggs) but I prefer this to time sensitive ones like in icicle creek

    As a kid, this book specifically was a huge fixation of mine. I'm super excited on two fronts that 1, Gabs is playing it and 2, that it's even a game to begin with! Used to listen to it on cassette tape checked out from the library on long car rides, some of my fondest memories

    Yes! It's always a good day when a new Nancy Drew gets uploaded. And you're getting super close to one of my favorite ones, Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon. So excited! You're the best!

    Shadow Ranch was my fave of the ND games when I was young (I actually loved doing the chores, I always enjoyed a good tragic romance, and I thought Dave was dreamy af) but that magnet puzzle. Oh my god. The memories and frustration immediately came back in waves. It feels like it would if you actually got a weak ass refrigerator magnet and tried to navigate metal with that lmao

    Imagine how fun it would be to be nancy’s friend
    Like, if bess and george’s plane didnt get stalled then not only would they get their ranch vacation, but theyd also get to see a bunch of western relics first-hand by following her around

    This was the very first Nancy Drew game I ever played! My mom bought me the "Double Dare" with this and Curse of Blackmoor Manor :) I got stuck on the first day for a long time though, because I didn't realize you could open the top part of the chest in the living room! Can't wait to watch you play!

    The horse info is weirdly good. Some of it outdated and a little biased but like weirdly accurate. Some horse specific games aren't this accurate. I don't know how they expect random people to process that information when given it all at once

    I wish I knew where they took inspiration from, some of it looks like Sedona - radio mentions Apache Junction and Gilbert - but nowadays those are basically suburbs, not really places you'd find a cattle ranch.

      I always pictured it somewhere in Queen Creek, the highway that leads from Florence to the valley where they host country thunder or the highway leading to globe. In 2004 though, AJ was still small lol. But rewatching this I wonder about casa grande or stanfield 😳

    Ugh, the nostalgia of this game! This was one of the few games that got away from me (in that I started it, but could never get past a certain point, and then didn’t get the chance to revisit it). Might have to revisit the game myself soon.

    Proud to say this is the first time I’ve been absolutely certain of who the culprit was from early on! Look at me, picking up the formula like 8 games in lol
    But yeah like, everyone had their own secrets pretty early on, except Shorty. Tex even got a second secret to make him look suspicious. But that already ruled them out, because EVERYONE in Nancy Drew has something to hide, and the last person that that’s revealed for is the culprit. Also, come on. Just look at Shorty. He’s clearly evil.
    Also also, with Nancy’s nothing answer to if she has a boyfriend and her ACTUALLY describing someone besides Ned as cute… methinks she and Ned may have been having relationship troubles this game 👀
