Nancy Drew (PC) - Every Voice Actor
108I tried keeping this as spoiler-free as possible, but don't watch this video if you want to play these games blind.
Turns out making those types of videos showcasing every voice actor for a franchise is particularly difficult and time consuming for the Nancy Drew games, especially since there's hundreds of voice actors and characters by this point.

Asterisk Notes:
*Daryl Grey is briefly voiced by Lani Minella in the original SCK’s climax.
*Sally McDonald appears in SSH's teaser of DOG. I don’t know if her voice actor here is the same in both games.
*I don’t know who the “receptionist” is in CAR.
*Lani Minella voices Samantha Quick in VEN under a voice filter, as I believe someone confirmed through modifying her voice clips.
*The “additional voices” in CAP are reused voicemail from previous games. I don’t know whether the voice actors also voiced other characters in the game. To avoid wasting time, the reused voice lines are here: https://youtu.be/38gogKgvsXY
*I don’t know who “DJ Beckford” is in ASH.
*There was a 2014 Her Interactive Cookie Contest for fans where the 1st place winner got a minor voice actor role in MID. Based on a FAQs then, the winner likely recorded her voice line to be sent to HeR online to avoid traveling all the way to their offices. No offense to the fan, but based on the poor audio quality of this specific line from this specifically isolated NPC, I'm assuming the fan voiced this character.

Other Notes:
- I also managed to find out whether a voice actor has their name credited differently in between games. For one example, Charleena Purcell's voice actor in SHA is credited as Julie Rawley but is credited as Julia Francis in TRN. One would think Charleena has had multiple voice actors. However, an Unlocked! episode (https://youtu.be/trTYLUH0DZs?list=PLtNRExlosPUCtGyS3qb7xve7k27Rv7pEi) disproves this by calling Julia Francis the voice actor of Charleena in TRN and Poppy Dada in SSH, when she was called Julie Rawley, meaning that she also voiced Charleena in SHA with the latter name.
- There's plenty of fun facts about the voice actors (ex: Rick Arlen's voice actor in STFD was a voice actor of Sonic the Hedgehog, Jake Rogers's voice actor in SCKR was a programmer for HeR Interactive, etc.), but this video's already crammed with information, so that research will be up to you.
