This was my first nancy drew game. My uncle got it for me when I was 7, I had such a big crush on Henry I remember crying when I found out he had a girlfriend lol

I'm dying of laughter with Lamont just sneezing in the background while you take your sweet time with calling Nancy and solving puzzles 😂😂

58:20 Memory unlocked. I grew up rural America in the early 90s. Gas stations would sell this chalky white candy the size and shape of a cigarette. And they came in boxes that looked like cigarette boxes. And they literally had "Candy cigarettes" printed on the side.

The way you can just hear the sneezing slowly killing the man in the background while we solve puzzles is killing me 😆

Louisiana native here and actual Investigator. I was certainly amused to see an ND game in New Orleans and for the most part they nailed it. Wish there had been more background info in the game that others have going into the history and explaining the Voodoo culture, Mardi Gras and Krewes associated with that holiday, as well as some more local NO backstory. The lack of mention of Marie Laveau was certainly surprising as was the distinct cemeteries found in the area which exist above ground as they do because of floods resulting in essentially raising the dead as it were. There was a problem with those buried being unearthed after bad weather which is why most are in above ground sarcophagi. Shrimp is also not a required ingredient in gumbo and it's a flexible recipe aside from one part, the roux. It's base is what makes gumbo distinct and requires almost a mastery in creating it correctly. Flour and oil or type of fat cooked down into a sort of gravy based cautious as to not burn it. I would suggest using chicken and andouille sausage if you eat either of those. Sandwiches known as "po-boys" are commonly found as well and are popular locally. They mainly contain seafood however like fried catfish, shrimp or oysters. The muffuletta is a different option focusing more on meats, cheeses, and lots of olives and is a sandwich cut into 1/4s intended for sharing. Cafe du Monde' is where you get beignets or a type of fried donut and chicory coffee and can be found easily in the French Quarter next to Jackson Square, the southern most part. I've always adored New Orleans and have fond memories of it being the place where I went for most larger shows and concerts of bands I liked that came through the area. When Katrina hit I was all but 2 hours from there and felt some impact but nothing compared to what those in the city endured. It was certainly heartbreaking to watch when electricity was available again.

Gabs freaking out at the spider in the hole and BB's immediate look up at her in response made my day.

Years ago, HeR actually did a promotion and sent out a limited number of actual Koko Kringle bars! It tasted like a Crunch Bar. I still have my wrapper!

Gab playing Nancy Drew is one of the things i always look forward to! Thank you for this, Gab ♥️ time to enjoy the cozy and spooky ride with my cats

Cozy AND spooky Nancy Drew? Gotta get my tea ☕️

The way BB looked up and stretched his paw at Gab's face when she got scared by the spider was SO CUTE (༎ຶ⌑༎ຶ)

nancy peer pressuring bess into doing some light crime is so funny

This is just pure nostalgia for me as this was the first Nancy Drew game I played with my mom when I was a kid. I remember somehow I maganed to figure out the shelf puzzle, still one of my favorites to this day and managed to convince my mom for us to replay it having the original disk and me being 19 now

Just sat down with a jigsaw puzzle and a coffee. Absolutely perfect to have in the background! Thanks Gab!

Yasss! As a long time ND fan this was my favorite of them all. The rainy ambience, the jazzy and sometimes ominous music, the overall gothic and gloomy vibe throughout the house, Henry’s voice & cool aesthetic… this game is all around perfect! And the coziest one for sure!☕️🌧

I love the vibes of this game! The rain, the soundtrack, the atmosphere, the style of Nancy walking around the graveyard~ Also Henry Bolet was cool, I love pathetic goth men. I like to imagine maybe he and Ned became better friends afterwards

I missed both streams and couldn't even watch this video on the day it came out, but I'm finally here! :P This was always low-ish on my imaginary tier list of ND games so I don't have as much to say about it, but here are my tidbits: - It's an accepted fact among the ND community that Henry is hot as hell and deserves so much better than Summer. Many of us are willing to volunteer as tribute. - This game came out seven months before the Indiana Jones movie about crystal skulls. Weird, right? And as a personal coincidence, the guy I had a huge crush on at around the time this game came out was potentially about to move to New Orleans and his class number (we were alphabetized by last name in my elementary school classes) was 17. Maybe that's part of why I never loved this one? haha - One of the books noted in the file cabinet is "Finding Fish" by Bill Kessler. I guess he gave up Fox & Geese and wrote a book? Prudence Rutherford also has a book in there. - "Didn't someone say last game we played that Bruno was mentioned somewhere?" That was probably me, lol. And yeah, Mystico said something about a dark figure named Bruno in our future! - This game's UI is the same as White Wolf, but with slightly bigger/different font, I think. - The big statue guy in Zeke's is the "tall glass of water" from the forge room in Blackmoor Manor. - I love the idea of Lamont just watching Bess do all sorts of weird things on his shelves and somehow still being trusting enough to go do the thing she asks over there. - If you eat too many Koko Kringle bars, Nancy gets sick. The screen turns green and I think she makes an unpleasant sound or something, haha. I can't remember exactly. And Her Interactive did make real Koko Kringle bars once a long time ago! They were basically just Crunch bars. I kept the wrapper from the one I ate and laminated it so it's a bookmark now. :D I also have an uneaten one in its plastic wrapping still. It sits on my bookshelf with a bunch of the old yellow ND books. - The doll in Renee's room is one of Camille Hurley's from Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon, though I forget which one that is. - Henry's mom was also apparently Dr. Preduvicu, the wood expert lady from Danger on Deception Island. Or maybe they're just relatives who posed in exactly the same way? - The gumbo stand employee person is dressed an awful lot like Shorty Thurmond, former cook of Shadow Ranch. - The skeeball game made me rage a bit when I replayed this recently. If you make each square a chicken, you get an Easter egg, but I opted to not torture myself further, haha. (Other eggs come from putting in a different pattern on Renee's box and using a different set of numbers on the clock in the hallway. You get the numbers from a little paper with the mummy in Zeke's, similar to the Time Will Tell stories in Bruno's book.) - The ending match puzzle gets a lot easier if you use your phone to take a picture while the screen is lit, hehe. Props to you for solving it the way we had to back in 2007! - There are surprisingly few ways to "die" in this game. You can get stabbed by the wasps too much, bitten by the spider if you reach in there too much, get chomped by Bernie if you poke the log after you get the conk, and you get a game over if you go out the emergency exit while Lamont is in sneeze mode. I think that's all. I don't actually know if you can suffocate in the underground chamber or let [culprit] escape. As far as game endings go, this is one of the easiest. Also, I am absolutely going to try the "restructure your thoughts" positive what-if thing! What a neat idea!

This is seriously one of the things that i look forward to each month! watching Eveline play Nancy Drew is just so much fun and relaxing! Once she gets to The Haunting of Castle Malloy though, i hope she can bring Sean on with her since that game takes place in Ireland, and i'd love to see his reaction to it

OMG, almost 4 hours of Gab, spooky Nancy Drew, and blissful BB-cam.❤ I'm so relaxed I can barely sit up.😸

Oh man, this is just what I needed to find today! It's a rainy day here, my daughter is staying home from school because she's not feeling well and we are snuggled up watching Gab play Nancy Drew! That coffee delivery was so sweet! My husband does that for me and it's the best surprise!

They had no right modeling Henry THAT attractively

OH MY GOODNESS!! This is one of my most favorite Nancy Drew Games. I remember playing it with my grandpa and we would see who could beat it first. The iguana is so cute. Thank you so much for playing this one!!

Finding the glass eyes in the cemetary gave me huge Coraline vibes.

Gabs playing every Nancy Drew game is curing my depression and healing my inner child’s trauma ❤ this is so pure ❤ and always excited to see the next game!!

Henry looks like he was maybe inspired in his design by Edward Scissors Hand ✂️ Sidenote: is Nancy a great detective bc she’s nosy as hell and has no boundaries lol

I didn’t have the capability to invest my energy into games like these as a child because I didn’t want to think hard about anything. I spent the bulk of my time in books or cartoons but now as an adult I am indulging a lot in gabs series with Nancy Drew games And it makes me feel like a child again. Even though this isn’t some thing I did as a kid, I still feel nostalgic because it is from that time and the games are just so relaxing. I thought the voice acting was so stupid as a kid but now I kind of like it and sometimes I even laugh at how terrible it can be at times. The mysteries are pretty good and the characters are not that bad either, I regret not getting into this as a kid but luckily as an adult I can do whatever I want now. It’s never too late to indulge in something new I just wish I had found it sooner because of the comfort and laughter it brings me. Thank you so much for playing these games and sharing it with us. I’m really terrible puzzles and I often don’t finish games because I get distracted so I really appreciate KZfaqrs who take me along the journey without me having to invest so much energy into it.

This is one of my favourites! The atmosphere, the spooks! "That scallywag. Why didn't he tell me? Oh that's right. I would've hung up on him."

it’s always a good day when gab uploads a nancy drew game

yo!!! My fondness for Seán was sparked by his endearing cameo (ts: 15:53) where he brings you coffee. You guys are very adorable. :-}

ahhh nancy time! my favorite! this one i remember quite well, because once, when i was like 10-12, i had a birthday gathering and my friends were trying to solve the shelf puzzle, while me and my grandma were trying to heat up pizza. one of the fondest memories i have of my childhood i always can't wait for nancy videos, so thank you for playing them! ❤

I had an absolutely horrible weekend, finding out I need a new car and trying to find a new job, and Gab posting a new Nancy video is just the thing I needed to help 💛 Thank you, Gab!

New Gab Nancy video dropped!! Best way to spend a Sunday, curled up with this and my cats

i’ve been playing the nancy drew games with my mom and sister since i was like 4, im 24 now and watching you play gave me such a full circle moment - thanks gab :))

When you got the eyeball from the gum machine, I was terrified for a split second, absolutely sure that I was about to hear Nancy chew on it! 😂

I love when you play Nancy Drew. Please never stop! 😊

just had my cat go missing so having Gab post this is a breath of fresh air. watching her always puts my mind at ease, I'm just been depressed for three since my kitty has been gone. thank you for posting video's

LITERALLY last night I was introducing a friend of mine to the Nancy Drew series through Legend of the Crystal Skull and lo and behold the next day you upload a playthrough of this exact game. She had an absolute blast. ❤️

I played the older games as a kid and have slowly been playing through the newer ones so I can watch your vods while I work from home. I'm almost done with Icicle Creek, so not watching this one yet because spoilers. Just wanted to say thanks, it makes the work day so much better! Your English is mind-blowingly good! To play and stream a game with this vocabulary in another language...just wow 👏

It's awesome seeing Sean come in to give coffee when needed. Always a pleasure to just chill and watch you play such beautiful games. Can't wait to see what you play near Halloween 🎃🖤🎃🖤

I am Indonesian and since we were influenced by Dutch culture in the past I really recognized that cigarette chocolate Gab mentioned. It's one of my favourite candy when I was a kid.

Can you imagine playing this with friends oved a weekend back when you were like 12 or 13 and you have been going over the riddle of the grave stones for over 40 minutes and one of you starts listing off the names in book and they finally get to constance norring and youre like "wait, what did you just say?" And it clicks and youre all screaming at how hard and stupid the riddle was but you just feel so smart for figuring it out. I imagine thats the 13 year olds equivalent to doing molly

Coffee deliveries from Sean always make me so happy. Your relationship is freaking adorable

Oh man, the last Nancy game with proper spooky vibes was the one taking place in Salem but this game has a warning at the front. LETS GO!!

i was wondering why i was so nervous watching gab just casually go around the house when nothing scary was happening, and then i remembered At Dead of Night!

that va doing all the sneezing did a great job. it must've been an interesting recording day. "so, you want me to sneeze? for how long?"

I had memories of this game, moving around through the outside. The atmosphere in this game is so good!

Okay but what are the odds that Gab would upload this while rain is pouring outside my house right now🌧

Nancy: What's in that pouch around your neck? Answer: Things. Secret things that help me. Nancy: I know what weed is, ma'am. I also want more guys who wear nail polish. It's a sign of embracing femininity that a lot of guys today are afraid to do. You don't have to be goth or emo to do it. I just wish there were more guys who didn't care about being so masculine and were emotionally relatable and available. Also cosplayers and guys who go to Ren Faire and genuinely like it.

the human brain is funny. woman: is anxious about making phone calls same woman: streams professionally and uploads videos of those streams to her 1M subscribers. (damn, gratz on the 1,000,000)

Thats why it told you to turn down your lights, that would've helped you see the screen far better.

34:30 the way BB's attention was drawn to the cursor is too precious

I JUST finished rewatching all the other ND videos as a background for work- this is needed! Thanks gab!! Hope you're lovvvving the games x

I was anxious to see u play this ‘cause I had the feeling you’d looove the atmosphere 🥰 this is one of my favorite!

Gumbo worker is definitely the equivalent to RE4 merchant.

Lol 😂 the puzzle at zeke’s was hilarious. Bess just casually solving a puzzle while Lamont sneezes in the background

Got coffee, got Nancy Drew, I'm a happy happy girl

I love this game. It has a great creepy atmosphere and I adore the punny cemetery puzzle! I like that it mixes New Orleans aesthetics with a more unexpected, slightly goofy mystery (a "magic" crystal skull owned by an eccentric dentist). I'm so happy to have finally seen Gab play it!

I’m so happy! This is my favorite Nancy Drew game ever and it actually gave me the kick in the butt to finally visit New Orleans

already watched it on stream, but will definitely re-watch it on youtube in the future! thank you for playing the game, i am so happy you're enjoying the nancy drew series 💜

It was my first Nancy Drew game and I have a lot of memories of my dad and I playing it together. Still my favourite one. Thank you so much for playing it!!

Yaaas! Another Nancy Drew game! I have this on in the background while I game. Boops and slow blinks to BB x

I've always liked Henry and Lamont

I love Gab's channel so much. She's so chill.

Really loved the atmosphere of this one! I really love the ND games when they're centered around one specific place :) the voice acting and the written lines are funny as always

Yessss I live for these!! Please do Castle Malloy or Captive Curse next, they’re also spooky!!!

When Gab got upset over the spider and BB noticed and put out a comforting paw... ❤

I’ve been miserably sick with the flu so seeing a new Nancy Drew play-through from Gab I can watch curled up with a cup of tea makes me so happy. I’ve heard a lot about this one but have never seen or played it before and am already loving the cozy spooky vibes 🖤

Omg BB at 22:46 when you get jump scared 🥹 he's like “mom are you okay”

this game is so nostalgic, along with purble place. i remember playing it on my grandparents’ computer. i had a tough time lol.

I love the eye movement of the characters, it really gives them emotion!

Thank you for this Gab! I was having a bad day and thought “maybe gab will have something good to watch.” Your Nancy vids are my absolute favorite!

A new Nancy Drew from Gab always makes my day! So excited to sit down and watch!

actually you can feed an alligator marshmallows, apparently. I went on a swamp tour in Louisiana once on one of those big boats and they gave us marshmallows for the gators lol. We also released some babies into the swamp

Ooooooohh I am LOVING "The Skeleton Key" vibes! 😍

Thanks for another wholesome video, and also for making me appreciate this genre of games! 🤗

Is anyone else’s favorite part the random Sean moments? 😂❤ they are so cute. I love that my two favorite KZfaqrs love each other!

During the chanting scene all I could hear was "Chocolate Beef!Chocolate Beef!Chocolate Beef!" xD

I hear kill juice everytime! So when you said ''Kill juice is not that bad'' I was really confused.😂

I was actually in New Orleans on bourbon Street and we did an algator tour and apparently they love Marshmallows!!! That's how the tour guide got the algators to come up, it was amazing!

Hands down my FAVORITE ND game!! The puzzles, atmosphere, location, characters UGH

I'm not sure if you've already played these games but i think you'll like the rusty lake games. Theyre puzzle games.

Hell yeah! An early B-day present! God, I love this series so much. New Orleans has some amazing stuff.

My favourite thing in the world is watching vods with cat cams 😍😍😍

Honey, wake up, gab uploaded a new nancy drew video

Omg koetjesreeeep that is exactly what came to my mind as well! So nostalgic, so tasty. I think this is my favourite playthrough of Nancy Drew you've done

Someone should make like a clip video of every time Gab predicts something correctly in the Nancy games, that would be so good.

There is definitely alternative options for gumbo. Gumbo is heaven and, from a true southerner (not me) zatarans is the best store not base and you just add anything you want. Highly suggest, especially if you add some spice. Perfect recipe for a great “I don’t feel good” soup/stew

I've just come down with a cold and feel horrible. Came onto YT and see Gabs has done another Nancy Drew for us. Just what the doctor prescribed 🤒🥰

Literally squealed when I saw this on my feed. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU I LOVE THESE!

That was a great game! I loved the atmosphere. The constant rain was relaxing.

These next couple of Nancy Drew games are my favorites!! So excited

I woke up this morning saying to myself “Mannn - this Sunday would be awesome if Miss Gab Smolders released a Nancy Drew play through.” And the universe delivered! Thank you Gab!!!

I love how Gab says "trAEsure" like Fred from Scooby-Doo. Honestly, her mispronounced words are all pretty cute; but I think that's my favorite.

"Watch out for that hot sauce. It gives my stomach FITS!" - Are we gonna torture him again? 🤣

I love watching these, it's so comforting and cozy!!! Every stream Evelyn does is the perfect amount of serotonin and entertainment that we all need in out lives ❤

😀👍 15:50 - 16:10 ---> Sean brings Gab some coffee! 1:17:35 - 1:17:40 2:38:25 - 2:28:31 ---> That key just go yeeted on the ground...

I've had a rough start to my week and your Nancy Drew make me feel so much better and calmer. Just a chill, fun vibe 🥰

I was so into this game back in the day that my best friend and I made a Facebook page for Henry... which is still live lol Those were simpler times.

Yas this is perfect timing!! I’ve been on a binge of your Nancy Drew series the past week, and was wondering when you were gonna do some more! It’s so fun to see someone play these games-I wish they got more recognition!

I thought henry was creepy when i first started playing this one. but then I loved him as the story unfolded 😂. I want him to breakup with his abusive girlfriend he deserves so much more. I also hated the puzzles, they were so hard i needed a walkthrough haha

I swear... the amount of money contractors must have made in installing secret rooms in houses in the Nancy Drew Universe...
