New Nancy Drew Dossier game launching in August

The next game in the Nancy Drew Dossier series, Resorting to Danger, will be launching in August according to developer Her Interactive, and will be available both at retail and as a digital download at HerInteractive.com.

In Resorting to Danger, players assume the role of Nancy Drew as she sets out to foil a prankster bent on sabotaging the Redondo Spa, a sanctuary to the rich and famous. Nancy goes undercover as a general assistant to unearth clues, interview suspects and solve daunting puzzles in order to determine who is planting bombs at the spa.  With six alternate endings, players can tackle Resorting to Danger again and again from different approaches and scenarios.

Her Interactive’s Nancy Drew Dossier series combines hidden object mechanics with story-driven gameplay involving detective work, interaction with clues and characters, brain-teasing puzzles, and arcade mini-games.  Playing from the point of Nancy Drew, players find hidden clues and use their strengths of observation, deduction, and problem-solving to uncover culprits and schemes in a story-driven plot. Resorting to Danger is the second game in the Dossier series, which debuted with Nancy Drew Dossier: Lights, Camera, Curses! back in January.

 "Our games have such resonance with women of all ages due to the sense of empowerment they feel from being as brilliant as Nancy Drew," said Megan Gaiser, president and CEO of Her Interactive, in a statement. "We believe the traits that define Nancy – gutsy, intelligent, independent – are imparted to players on a very subtle level and ultimately act to increase self-esteem and instill confidence.  So with all the games that are ‘good for you’ like fitness games and brain games, we’re glad we can offer a game that’s good for the soul."
