Danger on Deception Island is the ninth game in the Nancy Drew adventure series. It is based on Nancy Drew Mystery Stories #153: Whispers In the Fog.

Synopsis[]

Plunge into danger to bring a mysterious island's secrets to the surface!

George's friend, Katie Firestone, has invited you, as Nancy Drew, to Deception Island in Washington for a whale-watching excursion. But when you arrive, you find Katie's tour boat has been heavily vandalized. A threatening note also warns Katie to 'stop meddling.' Apparently, Snake Horse Harbor is divided over an orphaned orca whale that recently appeared in the channel and has decided to stay. What was a simple vandalism case begins to unfold into something more mysterious and sinister. Can you find the culprit, or will you be too late to 'Save the Whales?'

  • Kayak in clear coastal waters and shadowy sea caves
  • Solve puzzles using Morse code and the Anagram Buster
  • Build sandcastles, dig for clams and play chess

Characters[]

Holt is a fisherman who's also running for harbormaster. He resents Katie's interference in the orca problem and feels that the economy will suffer since fishermen have to avoid the orca.

Jenna runs the Hot Kettle Cafe. Her family has lived in the area for generations. She very much disagrees with Katie's views on the orca, believing that it should be reunited with its pod.
