There is also a glitch in this game; did you know? If you take the broken dowel and put it next to the measuring stick inside of Elliot's studio before asking permission to use his equipment, you then are rendered incapable of asking him for permission and cannot get close to the lathe. By returning to look inside of the roll cabinet in the band organ, you are gifted with another broken dowel which stays in your inventory forever, despite THE broken dowel remaining where you left it next to the measuring stick. Only after you acquire the phantom dowel can you ask for Elliot's permission to use his equipment and get him to leave.
Arglefumph: The Nancy Drew Dude this was my first Nancy Drew game too! It was a great intro to the series in my opinion cool settings, interesting characters, and a good storyline.
God, I miss the old days of playing nancy drew games all day and having to watch Michael's walkthroughs !! 😭😄 I live for your videos Michael! please make more of these! I can't wait to see everything wrong with newer games☺☺☺
From what I can gather the flag is closest to the Tajikistan flag which is really random and also impossible to be certain because we can't see if there's any patterns on the white portion.
Carousels tend to have safety belts so people won't fall off of the horses while the ride is in motion. The ones I've ridden had thick leather straps attached to the seats. So, in a way, they are similar to seat belts.
I've never been on a carousel with seat belts, so I was confused by that as well. If you don't know how to hold on to the bar in front of you, or the reins (if there are any) you should never be allowed on a bicycle. Bikes don't have seat belts, after all.
You always find so many things I never noticed! All that menu stuff, especially... The pencil could have fallen from behind Joy's ear, though, or Elliot might have planted it to make it look like she was the one who trapped Nancy's foot in it.
#12. There's no such thing as a black and white VHS tape. The video feed is black and white, of course, which isn't uncommon for security cameras. And businesses often keep really old equipment around rather than spending to update every time technology changes. I was once in a hospital (in a major city) where the computer terminals at the nurse's stations were clearly 20 years old. I don't have a problem with the videotapes.
@hannahleeb17 Just like Louis from Message In A Haunted Mansion Elliot whould definitely be in A Wheelchair probably forever if They both survived having A Chandelier dropped on Chandler and Elliot falling down The Stairs
I know this is an old video but 132 Joy says when you first meet her she thinks Ms. Santos came up with the haunted carousel for publicity, and (if I remember correctly) it's implied that the carousel acting up coupled with the Roller Coaster incident caused the park to be shut down for maintenance. I'm pretty sure it's suppose to be Joy's belief that Ms. Santos would do something so underhanded for financial gain, while never even trying to help her father (which is why she blamed Ms Santos for her father's death), is why she sabotaged the roller coaster.
I think back in 2003 they still used black and white video tapes. DIgital storage wasnt so good back then. I know this from watching a lot of true crime docs, they were always black and white video tapes up until very recently. :) Love this series!
#37 more accurately, when they decided to go with Mildred Wirt's original idea for when Nancy's mom died, instead of Harriet Adams's unnecessary change.
I found one big glitch in the game. It was at the end of the game, and I had just gotten the arm of the spook from Ingrid. At this point, I hadn't gotten the pliers. When I got the arm, the pliers just appeared in my inventory. I didn't know that the pliers were in the secret room until I watched this video. I missed an entire death sequence and the secret room.
When he said How is Harlan spinning his char if his feet aren't touching the ground, I got the answer to that, Michael gray, harlan May have used his hand to spin his chair. I do it all the time.
116 she probably called him on his cell phone but then again I don't know how this type of situation works, I've never had to call someone out of the country on a cellphone
92. Unfortunately, that's what Breakout is like. Finishing a level is hard because the last 2 or 3 blocks are tough to hit. That's one reason I never liked Breakout.
137. When I played through the game again, with my mum this time, try as I might those pliers would not appear! Never did get them but finished the game...xD
I agree, plus they are all on youtube now! I think I remember arglefumph saying before the DVDs were expensive or something and that is why he didnt do them
The biggest problem with this game is the whole Miles the Memory Machine bit. Sure, people think it's cute, but it has nothing to do with the mystery, and really goes nowhere (Miles and Joy bond while Nancy watches). It's clearly there just to pad out a game that was too short.
I'm enjoying these videos, but I don't see how finding a secret passageway, however cliché, is a sin. Finding the passageways is so much fun! Also, I'm surprised you didn't sin this one for claiming 20+ hours of game play. (Or did it not claim that?) This game disappointed me because I finished it so quickly.
The first time you snoop in Ingrid's office, there's a spot on the wall by the door that turns red, and then you get a phone call asking the capital of Wisconsin. Correctly answering (it's Madison) will give Nancy an Easter egg in the inventory. Use the Easter egg to click on the horse tails in Elliot's studio, and then go to the arcade and click on a red spot on the wall by the prize machine to trigger the phone call from MHM's Nancy. This channel has a video of the Easter egg, too.
Re: #121 - I always thought it was written that way because Past Nancy assumed she would still be in contact with Charlie in the future, which is not completely incorrect given that Charlie and Ned are voiced by the same actor!
John Dickas because of the way the flag is you can't really tell if there is an eagle but the colors are the right way and if you look close enough it looks like there is something In the white strip.
Apparently past!Nancy for some reason thought that Charlie would become a central figure in her life after Message in a Haunted Mansion... Or at least that they would keep in touch.
Why do they give you only three options to order from the hotel menu? I mean, the fundae makes sense because it's plot relevant but are burger and the pasta just Nancy's favorites?
iHeartRyanStiles yes you are hun. All your posting isn't necessary. You have comments all over the thread. You don't need to respond to every point you disagree with on the video.
I have watched so many times and it's now occurring to me, that if the carousel is malfunctioning how is it that whenever Nancy rides it somehow functioning on its own?
You forgot how a single iron is apparently able to burn an entire hotel down in minutes
Lol
@@mysticwolf9600 I would be absolutely Terrified to ride The Roller Coaster since
It looks pitch black in The other Rooms of The Ride

"Elliot fell back-first into a broken staircase. Elliot is dead right now. Nany murdered him." Best one of this video.
it will be rude to use my phone now...lmao... that one got me... thanks for the laugh
I am super sensitive about this game because it was the first Nancy drew game I ever played. In my eyes nothing is wrong with this game!! 😂
Me, too. That made it extra hard to create this video.
Arglefumph: The Nancy Drew Dude Most of these were jokes anyway, but it worked
Arglefumph: The Nancy Drew Dude this was my first Nancy Drew game too! It was a great intro to the series in my opinion cool settings, interesting characters, and a good storyline.
Same! It's not even my favorite but I still love it so much
It was my first game too!

I live for your videos Michael! please make more of these! I can't wait to see everything wrong with newer games☺☺☺
Actually the spook in the fish terrified me when I was a kid 😂😂
I never caught the option of calling when she was menaced. Well, Nancy may die, but at least she goes with impeccable manners! Hehe!
0:36 The menu says the burger comes on a sesame bun, but there are clearly no seeds on that bun.
It was also ridiculously easy to miss Tink's number, because the indicators for turning both directions were so close together...
From what I can gather the flag is closest to the Tajikistan flag which is really random and also impossible to be certain because we can't see if there's any patterns on the white portion.
"Quack?" that part was really funny.
18 since when do Carousel horses have seat belts? I went on carousel's and they never had seat belts
Carousels tend to have safety belts so people won't fall off of the horses while the ride is in motion. The ones I've ridden had thick leather straps attached to the seats. So, in a way, they are similar to seat belts.
iHeartRyanStiles depends on how old the carousel is...older carousels usually don't have seat belts.
I've never been on a carousel with seat belts, so I was confused by that as well. If you don't know how to hold on to the bar in front of you, or the reins (if there are any) you should never be allowed on a bicycle. Bikes don't have seat belts, after all.
iHeartRyanStiles Some carousels with brass rings have added seat belts so riders don't fall off while reaching for it.
wait those are really a thing?
you have b3 issues. and you have BO issues! I laughed so hard!
That was a good one too!
You always find so many things I never noticed! All that menu stuff, especially... The pencil could have fallen from behind Joy's ear, though, or Elliot might have planted it to make it look like she was the one who trapped Nancy's foot in it.
The hotel operator is also Lani Minella, the voice for Nancy.
All Nancy's done so far is play arcade games and find a pencil 😂
"Elliot's hair" that's the best one haha
These are all sooo hilarious 😂 I especially agree about the pre-dipped ketchup fries. Yuck!
this mystery could have had more paranormal stiff in it like haunted fair instead of just haunted carousel.

Did you notice how Elliot's death scene is similar to Andy Jason's?
@hannahleeb17 Plus They both look like Sharks if You let Them Kill Nancy
@hannahleeb17 Just like Louis from Message In A Haunted Mansion Elliot whould definitely be in A Wheelchair probably forever if They both survived having A Chandelier dropped on Chandler and Elliot falling down The Stairs

Nobody is operating the carousel and nobody is feeding the rings.
37: yeah I questioned the research department when watching the playthrough for that game
The Nancy talks over Nancy talking almost made my chocolate milk come out of my nose. Also this was the only Nancy Drew game I ever beat.
Ezra Wickford invented that ya know
@@brittanywainscott8276 Ezra Wickford is not A real Person so no He didn't
This is the best series on RUclips.

The sin that is missing is that you can give back the pliers rendering you unable to finish the game 🤦♀️
Ingrid gave them back to me when she handed me the arm.
I love this series (and your review series as well)! I hope you get to make one for all of the games! :)
116 she probably called him on his cell phone but then again I don't know how this type of situation works, I've never had to call someone out of the country on a cellphone
119. Aunt Eloise did have a player piano, in the bathroom that you were never allowed to go in.
She kept a piano in the bathroom?
@@123Yellowberry123 I think that is just A joke but if Nancy's Aunt did why keep it in The Bathroom?
This is my favorite thing on RUclips
Ah this game has a special place in my heart: the first ND game I have beaten, all those years ago, and I was hooked forever.
183. Contents of menu are written out in COMIC SANS. Why?
it looks like the jewelry in the carousel horse is the same jewelry that gets stolen in Secret of the Old Clock
secret of the old clock reused it
because it was reused
These were my favorite games as a teen! When will you create an "Everything Wrong With..." video for Danger on Deception Island? That was my favorite!
You forgot: why does Nancy lay on the floor the whole time while reading the letter from Joy’s dad?
Lie* on the floor. Lay = placing an object on a surface or pooping out eggs.
Love it!! Keep doing more please!!! It's the best :)
Nancy learned Joy's father's first name from Paula.

do carousel horses normally have seat belts? none of the ones ive been on do. just saying
This is amazing.
Yay! These are awesome
Congratulations about Rosie! :D
hahaha "she murdered him" was said with such disappointment xD and nancy IS an idiot sometimes but we love her anyway
1:36 On all the carousels I've been, the horses don't have seatbelts. It's totally normal. Don't know why he sinned that.
Considering Nancy can fall off the carousel trying to grab the brass ring, they really should have safety belts.
Please review the Nancy Drew/Hardy boys crossover episodes from the 70's (meet Dracula and Hollywood phantom)
I agree, plus they are all on youtube now! I think I remember arglefumph saying before the DVDs were expensive or something and that is why he didnt do them
Yes! Can this be a thing??

Well it does lead to finding Kefler's workshop at least, so it eventually ties in.
Why would she bring a pencil there?
Emotional support pencil 😅
Joy’s really out here trauma dumping on a complete stranger
Lol, "Culprit Catpure" XD
Most annoying thing from this game: "Niacin". >.
My first game is that too.
The game spells it "Elliott" and then the credits say "Elliot"
They must be Canadian
@@SJHFoto Or that part was extremely rushed or Someone doesn't know how to Spell

167 maybe he used some kind of electronic adapter that he stole from Ingrid or something?
Carousels have seatbelts where you live?!?
180:Quack?
Yeeeah, more everything wrong with nancy videos!
16:08 😂😂😂 Come on Nancy!
How do you trigger the Easter egg phone call between past Nancy and current Nancy?
The first time you snoop in Ingrid's office, there's a spot on the wall by the door that turns red, and then you get a phone call asking the capital of Wisconsin. Correctly answering (it's Madison) will give Nancy an Easter egg in the inventory.

This channel has a video of the Easter egg, too.
maybe Harland spun touch the leg wheels or something
Do everything wrong with Captive Curse because that was my first Nancy Drew😂
Despite popular belief, some carousels do have seatbelts.
132: Well obviously Joy is aware of how revenge is a dish best served cold.
Also, there are two Ferris wheels visible from the carousel, however only the pink one is shown on the map.
If the Carousel isn't closed then Tink should be there running it instead of fishing.
Edit: Oh. 23. you covered that. thank you.
I'm obsessed with these videos 😂
So glad more got added to this series. Any plans to do Blackmoor Manor?

YOU FORGOT THE PICKLES
I'd say the flag next to the hotel could be the Hungarian flag, but if it is it's upside-down.
Sorry for replying to your 11 month old comment but i think its actually the mexican flag
Cyterist if it was Mexican, there would be an eagle in the white stripe, so I'm 100% sure that it's not
John Dickas because of the way the flag is you can't really tell if there is an eagle but the colors are the right way and if you look close enough it looks like there is something In the white strip.
Cyterist Oh, I didn't see that, but either way, it doesn't even really make sense why it would be there anyway.
Cyterist The colors of the stripes could also be the Tajikistan flag as well.
You forgot that the squid game is always the same. Same order of strength and direction every time you play it
Apparently past!Nancy for some reason thought that Charlie would become a central figure in her life after Message in a Haunted Mansion... Or at least that they would keep in touch.
What carousel horses have seat belts??
90. those instruction literally tell you exactly what you need to do.
Why do they give you only three options to order from the hotel menu? I mean, the fundae makes sense because it's plot relevant but are burger and the pasta just Nancy's favorites?
79 I don't know that roller coaster seems a little dull
