Fun Game Sep 23, 2008
By M. Nickless my 7 year old has enjoyed discovering all the mysteries. it took her a few months to "solve" the mistery and earn a badge. she doesn't play it all day, so it took awhile. she loved trying to unlock the clues. I like the fact i can download her spelling words into the system. Note: Leapfrog is working on bugs with all the Didj products. With Nancy Drew, the system shuts off if you hit the help button. Leap said they fixed it, but just be aware they are still working out kinks in the entire new product. Enjoying all the games so far.

Entertaining but much too short Aug 08, 2008
By Greg Friedman This Nancy Drew title was entertaining and engaging for our seven year old daughter. She enjoyed following the clues and enjoyed the integrated spelling challenges.
She played through the entire mystery in a bit over two hours. Our expectation was that there would be significantly more content. Considering that there is only a single mystery, there's not much replay value.
Summary: interesting age appropriate content but suffers from having only a couple of hours of content with little replay value. We've had significantly greater success with many Leapster titles which have tens of hours of content per title. Hopefully some of the other Didj titles will do better in this respect...

Not a Hand held game! It's an educational tool Apr 05, 2010
By Elizabeth Dyar
"Emanon"
I do not believe in hand held games or video games for children. My mother is the one who went against my wishes and purchased this for my daughter Christmas 2008, that's right 2008. Knowing my feeling on this subject my mother came armed with newspaper articles, e-articles, and an educational magazine. Due to my stubbornness it was an entire year before I loaded the software on my computer. With that being said I am glad my mother purchased this for my daughter (age 8) as I never would. Didj is not a hand held game or video game, it is an awesome educational tool. I love it! The Didj includes a feature on its "Leapfrog Connect" in which I can upload her spelling words and choose her math facts and language arts skills by grade and then again by specific skills. In order to continue to the next level she must answer a series of educational questions, this motivates her because she earns micromods. Micromods are equivalent to money/tokens in which she downloads "extras" for each game. For example, she has downloaded a pet for Sonic and a new computer for Nancy Drew and a Karate move for Spongebob. I have purchased another six educational tools; Nancy Drew, Nicktoons, Neopets, Tinkerbell, Super Chicks, High School Musical and a free download from Leapfrog Jet Pack Heroes. I can't seem to say enough about this valuable educational tool. My daughter is studying her math facts and spelling words without me telling her "It's time to study".

Kids Love it Sep 19, 2009
By R. Chawla
"RC"
Even though the 7 yr old quickly completed the whole game, but overall she loved it.
Good game option, but the product is being phased out. Dec 27, 2011
By Micheale Gorman I was excited to get this Nancy Drew game for my daughter, especially for such a great price. It is a fun game with a decent educational component, but the didj is being phased out by LeapFrog, so don't invest in this game unless you already have the system.
