Quirky is always a fun personality trait, although it is immensely overused in children’s entertainment nowadays. What good things can I say about it? The characters are pretty popular with everyone. Okay, that’s enough bad-mouthing the game. Personally, I like the idea of an ending that says, “You won the game! Congratulations! Here’s the plot as a reward.” In fact, if Final Fantasy games did this, I would be pleased as punch, because they do not contain discernible in-game plotlines. The ending of the game amuses me, because it tries to wrap up all the various plotlines in as little time as possible. Only when you replay the game a couple of times and choose different dialogue options will you be able to get an idea of how all the various plots are related. So, far too often, you’ll end up with a bunch of unrelated plot points that don’t get explained and/or don’t seem to be relevant. And unfortunately, it’s often hard to trigger certain plot points because following through on their subplots is optional. In fact, most of the plot of this game is entirely optional. In fact, when I tried to follow through with their investigation, I was unable to trigger the “confront the criminal” scene, which stinks because that’s basically the whole POINT of investigating crimes, am I right? The Hardy Boys’ investigation, while interesting at some points, is pretty much completely optional. The plotline about Kane Okala, who I can only presume is supposed to be the titular Creature of Kapu Cave, gets dropped ten minutes into the game. Could it be that someone is pretending to be Kane Okala in order to carry out nefarious deeds? And there have been sightings of Kane Okala, a minor Hawaiian god who is destroying the local pineapple crop. The Hardy boys are there, too, doing a background check on a local surfer girl. The plot of the game is that Nancy goes to Hawaii to help a quirky entomologist named Dr. So, if you like short mystery games with only a semblance of a plot, this is the game for you. Graphics: It is glaringly obvious they got a new graphics team for this game.Length: It is over twice as short as the other games.Nancy Drew: The Creature of Kapu Cave is sometimes pegged as the worst game in the entire series, for these reasons:
