2022 Marathon - Nancy Drew #2: Stay Tuned for Danger 

Aww, it was cute to hear Rosie in the background! It reminds me of your very first mega-marathon and hearing Mary in the background. How time flies!

I love these older games so much, but I wish they would redo them for current computers so I don't have to fight to get it to work lol. Thank you for doing these run throughs

arglefumph nancy drew megamarathon is THE best time of year hands down

As much as I would love to see Remasters of the older games, they wouldn't have Lani.

I never played this game but listening to the Ned and Nancy interactions makes me miss it. They say I love you and I miss you!

Orange? NOT ORANGE! I couldn’t stop laughing at that

So this may be a hot take but: Brittany Cox (the new voice of Nancy) sounds soooo similar to Lani Minella in the early games, this one especially. I think she did a great job emulating an earlier Nancy. I just so happened to put this play through on after watching the Midnight in Salem one and their voices are practically similar back to back.

I'm replaying all the games in order, but wasn't able to get this one to work in a download form. So I guess I'll have to play this vicariously through you!

When Michael reads the teleprompter, it reminds me of his narration for The Lady's Choice. I love it! I hope Michael does the other 2 stories for that game one day.

So basically Lillian gets away with nearly poisoning Rick Arlin

Your commentary is the best 😂 Please don’t stop making videos!!

Omg. I clicked on the 2014 playthrough thinking it was going to be this one...and the audio quality has improved big time. But also omg the kiddooooooos. They're cute.

You wanted to ask Lillian about something? You're off the case!

I think the bomb puzzle restarts you outside the room because in the older games puzzles like that can start even if you don’t have the stuff you need to complete it. The first time I played this game I didn’t have the screwdriver and kept dying. Then I finally found the screwdriver but didn’t have the wire cutters so I’m glad it starts you back in the hallway so you can go get what you need 😅

The only ones I haven't played are the first two, but I have seen vids and the lobby music in this one always calms me down

Thumbs up if you completed your Nancy Drew game collection by going to Goodwill and finding them in physical copies which means you basically paid only one or two dollars for all of them

I love this game! I hope they remaster it one day like they did with Secrets and Kill. One can only hope!

the eyebrow movements in this game are insane, I can't stop staring

My lights flickered as you read the threatening message at 18:41 my lights flickered so I got really spooked haha

1:01:44 “Hello Rick, don’t try to leave the room, the doors rigged. Consider my first warning. Somewhere in this room is an explosive device that will blow your body to smithereens”. After that im not sure lol 😂 i heard something about todays your debut of something lol

That’s crazy… I remember when your oldest was your youngest daughters age 😂

Watching this now after the release of KEY yesterday and tbh I think STFD is so much more charismatic and fun to play.

your daughter is so adorable ;w;

The scene with the live shoot has more npcs than any other ND game before midnight in Salem

shrodingers drew: for every wire nancy disarms on the bomb, three other nancy's in paralell universes fail and are blown up

I can't exactly decipher it the best, but here's what the message said on the bomb from what I can tell "Hello Rick. Don't try to leave the room, the door's locked. Here's my first warning, somewhere in this room is an explosive device that will blow you and your body to smithereens." And that's as far as I could understand without it like hurting my ears or getting too hard to decipher

The child was cute to hear from. Reminds me of me when I played Nancy Drew with my sister

I'm a little late to your 2022 mega marathon but nonetheless I'm so excited! :)

Love this one!!

Why are there not more comments????!?

This game is turning 25 this year! Do a 25th anniversary playthrough!!

I really like you Michael. 😊

Love the narrative, cheers mate.

It’s the unblinking eyes for me

Always love watching your streams :) Also your daughter is SO CUTEEE

"Join me next time in the thrilling case, Mystery of the Missing Mustache!"

I have a theory. What if soap operas aren’t around because RU-vid, Facebook, and other social media platforms have taken over the soap opera stage, so to speak? Just a thought. On a separate note, the cut-out magazine (or mini-newspaper) probably could have been switched with the culprit’s copy when the culprit was there so as to avoid suspicion. Also, did anyone else notice that the timer spells out a message once the bomb is deactivated? You just have to rotate the display 180 degrees

My first game 😊❤

"I'm not exactly sure, like, [Mattie's] mom is _a suspect,_ ... I _guess_ we could assume that her mother, who never appears, is the culprit..." Well, Rick _is_ getting those death threats _in the mail..._ I don't know how Nancy could ever hope to properly _prove_ Mrs. Jensen's involvement from _New York,_ though. That said, with how bombastic Mom's letters are and some of the stuff around Mattie, I can see forming a fairly reasonable hypothesis that Mrs. Jensen was some sort of mastermind who sent threats and also put Mattie up to do a thing or two in-person to enhance the sense of danger in ways that Mommy Dearest couldn't from out-of-town, or, perhaps a bit more likely, that she finally _got through_ to Mattie and more or less accidentally convinced her to take revenge on Rick for stealing "her" rightful place in the spotlight. I could see that idea holding for a little while, depending on what clues you find when. Also, personally, I don't think "they" have Millie Strathorn "hiding" in the Prop Room at all. I think she's just a slightly kooky old lady who gets a kick out of playing Prop Master and using pretending to be bound by company regulations as an excuse to subject people to silly "tests". She's a nut, but she's still the founder, so as long as she's not a _serious_ impediment to getting work done, they just let her claim whatever job she wants.

I think they restart you outside of the room so you can get the screw driver if you don't have it.

Anyone notice how this is set in New York and Owen Spayder’s hire date said September 11? This was made in 1999 but STILL coincidence or nah

“Hello Rick, don’t try running away. Don’t run. Didn’t you get my first one? Somewhere in this room is an explosive device that will blow your body to smithereens…maybe all the way to Hollywood! Too bad your debut out there will be-“

1:01:45 - There's a clue somewhere in the game that reveals the correct order in which to cut those colored wires, in the "tape player" puzzle... I believe it's in Lillian's office, IIRC. But I'm not sure if you can get in there before the bomb threat in Rick's dressing room gets defused, so ... 🤷‍♀

rick you are not nancy type lol

I think Bold & the Beautiful and Young & the Restless are still going, too, but I could wrong. Haven't watched them in years cuz I lost interest.

25:54 i do not know why, but... it looks like he checking his armpits for some reasons...

Anybody know what happened to the stream last night? Was waiting for the building to explode and all of a sudden it said it was a private video?

I'm really late on this but I discovered steam the gaming platform actually has a lot of the Nancy drew games I'm not sure if it has all of them Obviously doesn't have ransom of the 7 ships But it does have a lot of the games Edit: my mom loves this Soap opera I think it's Called days of our lives All I really remember is this little scene that plays with a guy saying like sand through the Hour glass so are the days of our lives and my mom has been watching it I think even better I was born

Gosh it’s weird to think of things from the previous century like it feels really really old, but that’s because it is really really old.

57:23 57:32 😂😂😂😂

Dwayne powers is a lex Luthor level villain

The Roman numeral for four is wrong. It's shown on the clock as "IIII" . In real life it is "IV". I don't have a reason for pointing this out beyond that Waverly taught it to me and it bugs me.

"Voice Talent ... Roger _Jensen_ as Owen W. Spayder"... Did "Owen" actually have any lines?? 🤔 And is he any relation to _Mattie_ Jensen? 😊 Lol.

No Michael I’m pretty sure that’s supposed to be a laptop I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure sure it’s supposed to be a laptop this game as far as I recall this game came out in like 1999 which was the year I was born and the Nintendo DS wasn’t released until 2004

You can talk to Millie again.

NO

Lillian is a Karen

Can you stop scream/screach? Your voice is much louder than the game audio. Calm down. Sheesh..
