This makes me smile, as one of the suggestions made over a year ago on a thread I started about ideas for new Nancy Drew Adventures was an Egyptian tomb one - I bet lots of game studios sift through the ideas on sites like Gameboomers to see what gamers are thinking!

From the preview trailer of this game there look to be some typically monstrous puzzles involving hieroglyphics and picture tile shuffling etc etc - plus lots of opportunities to die. I wish it would show the chores too, like maybe sweeping sand piles around, or perhaps making interesting food concoctions or maybe cleaning up after the camels!!!

Seriously, I don't know about the look of this game, I feel the trailer has given perhaps too much away?

Agree, agree, agree! The last ND game I purchased was Shadow at the Water's Edge (SAW). I was finally excited about Tomb of the Lost Queen, and looked forward to the trailer, but as you said, I only got about a third of the way through it because I felt it was giving much, MUCH too much away about the nature of the game's puzzles and obstacles. I generally enjoy trailers as they give you a feel for the game, but the TMB trailer felt more like a video walkthrough!

they just add a pin it to their web page what is that, and shown the box dvd cover.

Thanks family!

you are welcome, the dvd cover is in the amateur sleuth blog, and the pin it is above the bonus edition on the tomb of the lost queen game page.

Family, there is a website called Pinterest and you can pin things that interest you on there for others to see. If you have a Pinterest account you can "pin" their picture on it.

Ana
