Normally, you'd also have the option of calling Bess and George or Frank and Joe Hardy for help, but this time they're all off doing their own thing, so you're left to ask Loulou, the parrot, for help. (Yes, I said parrot.) Playing in Senior mode, you're pretty much left to your own devices to figure out what to do next, and you'll only interact with swat Loulou swat for a specific set of puzzles. Since I fired up Junior mode for a quick comparison only, swat my observations will be from the Senior detective point of view. Blackmoor Manor's puzzles are quite varied and devious, so be prepared to take lots of notes. (Nancy doesn't take notes; she makes observations in her notebook.) The puzzles run the gamut from the typical inventory-based variety—feeding Loulou a parrot cake—to using an alchemist's formulary to open a door. You'll also come across a couple of timed sequences (nothing too daunting), a modified slider, rotating rooms and a vast assortment of fun minigames. Deciphering the array of puzzles will involve keen observation, diligent attention to detail and actual typing ability.
