Description

Nancy Drew tags along with her detective pals, Frank and Joe Hardy, on a mysterious train adventure that starts in Chicago and takes them west. The train ride is hosted by a Lori Girard, prominent socialite, who has gathered a group of top researchers and detectives to help her unravel a century

old secret.



Originally built as a private train for 19th century adventurer Jake Hurley, the elegant train is shrouded in mystery. Long ago, Jake set out to discover the “mother lode” during the heyday of mining in the west. Trouble soon followed when Jake lost his beloved new wife Camille. Though despondent, Jake pressed on with his search for riches. Later, the train was discovered in remote Blue Moon Canyon; his engineer dead of an apparent heart attack, and Jake ─ mysteriously vanished.



As Nancy, players investigate the train and its hidden secrets, explore old mining towns and delve deep into mineshafts. Players interrogate the train’s passengers and uncover clues to determine whether Lori is really interested in the vanished Jake Hurley ─ or some long lost secret he discovered in pursuit of treasure. Did Jake hit a vein of gold? Did someone get to him before he could claim his fortune? And what other priceless elements might be hidden in The Last Train to Blue Moon Canyon?
