I signed up with Big Fish Games and have a credit to use. I haven't played any ND games and the reviews tend to be scattered. Out of these, which one was your favourite?
Curse of Blackmoor Manor Danger by Design Danger on Deception Island Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon Legend of the Crystal Skull Secret of the Old Clock
Also, do I need to play them in order (any character spoilers?) or are they all pretty much standalone?
I know everyone has different game preferences as far as style, story, plot. The ones that I've enjoyed off the top of my head are Culpa Innata, Black Mirror, Nibiru, Still Life, TLJ. My all-time favourites though would be the GK series.
Thanks for any input!

Curse of Blackmoor Manor, hands down. You can play them in any order you want. You will get references to other games but that's all. Ana

Ditto - I think Blackmoor may have had the toughest puzzles but was the most fun for me.

Hi misa, my preference is in this order: Danger on Deception Island Last train to Blue Moon Canyon Curse of Blackmoor Manor Danger by Design Legend of the Crystal Skull Secrets of the Old Clock But not to upset the applecart! - Nancy Drew games vary & if you like tough puzzles you've been given very good advice by BrownEyedTigre & nickie - I have fond memories of Curse of Blackmoor Manor - it is the game that led to my 1st post on GameBoomers! To follow, Legend of the Crystal Skull might appeal as it almost entirely consists of solving a sequence of puzzles!

Haven't played Blue Moon Canyon or Crystal Skull yet, but of the rest of your list I liked Danger on Deception Island the best.

Even though it's not on your list misa the ND called the Secret of the Scarlet Hand was a great game with lots of puzzles.

Ghost Dogs was my favorite but I'm thinking of getting them off eBay in order again to replay. I've played them all since the beginning and I don't remember them all... I hate that.
