While Nancy Drew: The Model Mysteries might be fine for younger gamers, it is a shame more effort wasn’t made to engage the player’s intellect instead of dumping yet another generic and charmless casual game onto the shelves and at that, one that must leave those unfamiliar with Nancy Drew’s legacy without a clue as to how the heck she has prospered for eighty years.- Just Adventure

I really didn't like this game. This is no Tex Murphy game. I didn't think things gelled and with the ordinary acting and poorly-integrated puzzles, I found it confusing and boring to play.- Just Adventure

But this game does nothing more than remind the adventure game lover of the malaise our beloved genre currently finds itself in.- Just Adventure

By game’s end, it almost seems as though the developers have gotten sick of the entire game and just want to get it over with.- Just Adventure

Where the game falters unlike any other in recent memory though is the dialogue. Not the voice-acting mind you, but the dialogue itself.- Just Adventure

Still, it is fun exploring the island and piecing together the story, I just wish I had been ‘lost’ a little longer.- Just Adventure

Now I realize that this review seems to have degenerated into a bitch-fest, but I just can’t seem to find any redeeming values in this game.- Just Adventure

So, this is a pretty ordinary game that has potential in some areas.- Just Adventure

My recommendation is that you don't purchase this game unless you are bald, for you are sure to pull out all of your hair in frustration.- Just Adventure

The disappointment of the year for the adventure community. All of the fuss and hype was for nothing which is actually a shame, since its wonderful world was the perfectly fertile ground to create a fantastic exotic adventure, but unfortunately the opportunity was lost.- Just Adventure

This is one piece of poultry that deserves a visit from the Colonel.- Just Adventure

It is living proof (among many others) that in order to successfully top a sequel (or, in this case, an otherwise successful sequel), you have to work twice as hard. And that is something that the developers simply failed to do.- Just Adventure

Simply put, this really isn’t an adventure game. You don’t have to think, you don’t have to work, you don’t ever have to put pen to paper. The paths are literally laid out for you with neon signs, and you just have to follow them.- Just Adventure

I found this game to be a little on the slow side, as well as frustrating from time to time…hey, let’s face it…when you have been on the path for a while and fifty clicks later…ahhh look…more path! It can get a little tedious.- Just Adventure

Be a good parent and plop them down with a paperback version of The Hobbit and allow Middle-Earth to exist in their imagination rather than as a lesser version of "Super Mario World."- Just Adventure

The puzzles are a monotonous nightmare accompanied by hordes of zombies that make your finger numb by the repeated clicking on the left mouse button to kill them. Almost 85% of the puzzles involve finding a key to unlock a door, chest, or anything that could be locked.- Just Adventure

The more I played the game, the more I just sat there staring at my computer screen, shaking my head sadly.- Just Adventure

The game has little merit, as either an adventure or a story. The premise is ludicrous, the graphics are mostly pedestrian, the voice-overs distinctly amateurish, the puzzles unimaginative, and the ending quite unsatisfying.- Just Adventure

In the final analysis though, Mata Hari the game is something that Mata Hari the person never was: boring and pedestrian.- Just Adventure
