What a waste of my money. I am a huge fan of the Nancy Drew games, but his wasn't even close to those. I had the same problems as lots of others and had to go their web site to download something to even get the game to work. Once I got it working, it took me a while to figure out how to maneuver between the brothers. I barely got started with the game and lost interest. I haven't even finished it, and I have no desire to. Don't waste your money on this game. What a disappointment.

I am hooked on the Nancy Drew games and figured the Hardy Boys game would be done as well as those games. I was wrong. A couple of minutes into the game my cursor disappeared and I had to get a patch. The patch brought the cursor back but it was very stilted througout the game. As you moved from place to place in the game you had to wait for the new scene to load which was very bothersome. Also knowing when to separate the brothers or keep them together needed a walkthrough. Hopefully the next one will be better. I hope so.

Many ways they can improve. Graphics are great but the story line was a little lame. Felt lost and clueless quite often. I keep in mind that the first Nancy Drew game was quite lame as well. And look how GREAT they are now. There is hope for the Hardy Boys. I would suggest playing just so you can get use to the tools and game format.

I am unable to give a review on the game because I have not been able to resolve the technical issues. I currently have a request in to the technical support for the manufacturer but they are slow to respond. There are many technical problems with the game so it's been frustrating. I certainly would NOT have purchased this game if I'd done my homework first!!

I have every Nancy Drew game made,and was so exited to know Hardy Boys had a game.What a waste of money!!!!!I love adventure company games and was so anticipating this one.Do not be suckered in to buying it!!!The first 10 minutes are ridiculous just trying to get the stupid keys.The worst of all is waiting between scenes for the game to load.I have never experienced such a long wait for loading.I swear I dozed off a couple of times.This game is a complete waste of good money!!!!!
