Niobe is an accomplished prop and stage artist and has the skills necessary to produce the replicas. Xenia is also the director of the play and seems nervous about losing her job, giving her both a motive and access to the artifacts. However, Nancy is called in by a museum curator, who suspects that some thief is replacing the actual artifacts with clever forgeries! The obvious suspects are the actors themselves, but the police have been unable to figure out if they are telling the whole truth and nothing but the truth.įortunately for Nancy, there are only a handful of suspicious actors in the troupe: Xenia Doukas (who plays Persephone), Niobe Papadaki (who plays Demeter), Thanos Ganas (who plays Hades), and Grigor Karakinos (who plays Hermes). A local theater group has formed to perform classic Greek dramas, but with an innovative twist-the scenery will contain actual historical artifacts on loan from various museums. The current game continues this tradition with a trip to Greece, legendary for its rich history of tragic drama, epic poetry, fabulous architecture, and terrific art. Over the history of the series, the youthful detective has travelled to many fun and exotic locations, including Venice (in Nancy Drew: The Phantom of Venice), Japan (in Nancy Drew: Shadow at the Water's Edge), and Egypt (in Nancy Drew: Tomb of the Lost Queen). I recommend this game to any Nancy Drew fan who enjoys learning about history and legend and solving some really clever logic puzzles. Fans of previous games of the series will find much to enjoy in this game, and the difficulty level of the puzzles will challenge even experienced or older players (though an easy mode is also available for novice or younger players). As always, Nancy must also deal with a cast of suspicious characters, each with a tangible motive.

Along the way, the player will learn a great deal about the history of ancient Greece, including its art, stage plays, and myths. This time, the adventure sends the sassy detective to Greece, where she must go undercover with an acting troupe and discover how priceless historical artifacts are being stolen from a museum.

Nancy Drew: Labyrinth of Lies is the 31st title in Her Interactive's series of first-person adventure games based on the venerable Nancy Drew franchise.
