Now we're really starting to get into the plot in earnest, and I'm enjoying it. Well, more so after the first puzzle, in which I keep messing up my attempts to count out the letters in a document to find a secret code. Nancy finds more eyeballs (glass), discovers the secret of that model crypt, finds the missing painting in a cemetery, and stumbles across hoodoo spells! After the cosplaying iguana startles us, we read up on the crystal skull, it's history and supposed powers. Where is the skull now? Could someone have wanted the elderly Bruno dead? Probably. Since Nancy can't get a cab, she leaves it to Bess to interview the doctor, who was Bruno's best friend and was there when Bruno died. Theories of George's death remain unsubstantiated and frankly groundless.

I make better progress on the puzzles and am enjoying this game all around. Good voice acting and writing; I don't know whether this is one of the better games in the series, but I can see why the series endures! And any adventure game is likely to have a few annoying puzzles. Check out the part where Nancy gets into a duel with squad of hornets so she can filch a piece of fruit. Nancy's tough, if she can keep going after all those hornet stings. Also, I get a TRIPLE RAID!
