It’s actually really funny that the first child character to appear in a Nancy Drew game ends up being the villain. HeR Interactive really said, “fuck them kids.”

Apparently I was right. Nancy Drew: The Final Scene was indeed rushed to production. Apparently HeR Interactive hit some financial hot water and decided to make two games per year to increase revenue. The Final Scene was the first game made after this decision. It was made on very short notice, and apparently the plot differs a lot from what HeR actually wanted it to be. Makes since. I mean, there’s not even a welcome audio clip, and tbh the plot was kinda weak.
