Genre and what to do:
Detective game. Nancy Drew - Dossier - Lights, Camera, Curses! is one more exciting game in the game series. All the previous Nancy Drew.s games were of puzzle genre, this one is the first made in the hidden object genre. It combines both fresh and familiar features, making the gameplay fun unforgettable. This time our teens are involved in the Hollywood movie studio which is remaking a classic movie, Pharaoh. A few accidents took place there, and it is up to Nancy to unravel the mystery behind them. Each important evidence is kept in the diary. All the clues are organized chronologically. There are nice mini-games throughout the gameplay. When you pick a lock, a Tetris style mini-game begins. You are to drop tumblers of different colors to match a picture the game shows you. One more important item is the action bar, where you can perform action, for example, interacting with the object, picking locks, etc, when the bar is blue.
