2020 Mega Marathon - Nancy Drew #18: The Phantom of Venice

[@shelbyroye6452]

I don’t know why I watch your videos over and over again even though I know what happens. You’re great and I appreciate these videos!

[@user-fk4qk6lc8o]

sameeee

[@skyblazeyoutuber57]

Same

[@yournextex1254]

Same!!!

[@ceciliacrasto4602]

I never get tired or bored with your videos. They never fail to bring a big smile to my face and bright my day. Hope you and your family are doing well, thank you for existing ❤

[@mizzwriter13]

The final ND game ever should be a set-up where all of Nancy's past foes work together to try and stop her. Does it work logically? Probably not. Am I willing to forgo logic for the sake of seeing all of the people Nancy defeated once (and in one case, twice) who taunted her by saying they'd get their revenge try to come after her again only to get absolutely destroyed by our favorite teen sleuth? Oh absolutely.

[@kittentuson5892]

Arglefumph's comments on everything in all of his videos are just perfect! XD

[@JennifulCreations]

You sound just like Prudence! So enjoying these videos. Love the older games, it's like going back in time, when life was normal. ;)

[@megabuster3940]

One of the best Nancy Drew games IMO alongside Waverley and Alibi

[@VanessaDownen]

I really love that even after the scopa game, Michael keeps bringing up how confusing it was

[@benjaminhurley1823]

One of my favorite ND games from my childhood

[@kono9460]

cat suit dancing is also one of the funniest in the whole series

[@kono9460]

love your videos and this is probably my favorite game cuz of the cool Italian setting and scopa! The case is so cool too and the puzzles as well

[@underatbr2212]

okay so this is about 2 years behind all the other comments but when colin says at 47:58 "she will tell all her friends he has a criminal record" I want to scream WHAT FRIENDS since we notice later that shes not really well liked in "high society". that always got on my nerves

[@ceciliacrasto4602]

Also SHORTY is COLLIN?!? I am SHOCKED!

[@sagedelt]

Does anybody else think they used a guy to do prudence’s voice just because of Michael’s impression of her being so good?

[@angusinacampbell2857]

It legit sounds like Tobias as Mrs. Featherbottom from Arrested Development lol.

[@phantomess1870]

I like colin... I feel bad for him.

[@VanessaDownen]

41:00 I've never wanted anything more than I want this stuffed cat

[@kittentuson5892]

Don't hate one me but I found the slides pretty fascinating and really wanted to know more.

[@writerspen010]

I didn't mind the tesserae slides either! I also don't mind putting the mosaic together. It's just tedious not being able to zoom in with the tiles being so small, and a few of the colors look very similar

[@lindseyreisker]

Does anyone notice a silhouette of a woman in the left corner of the window?? I googled it and supposedly its Samantha Quick. I really wish I knew who she really is and what she looks like.

[@3rcpro-life-semper1m5]

I only noticed it when someone pointed it out and I had to go back to see. I think she has a strange voice and it's creepy 😳. I have no idea what she looks like and if we meet her in any other mysteries. But I totally think it's cool how the writers snuck her in there. That'll teach me how to be more observant.😄

[@lindseyreisker]

@@3rcpro-life-semper1m5 Supposedly she is in the silent spy. I found something on the wiki but who knows if its true. We may never know since I doubt there will be another Nancy Drew game. :(

[@3rcpro-life-semper1m5]

@@lindseyreisker Ohh! Neat! I haven't played that one yet. (I'm waiting to play it with my sister.) Even though we don't know for sure, maybe we can hold on to that thought lightly. :) Oh no, I hope that won't be the case! I hope they can make more Nancy Drew games. It would be so sad if they stopped coming up with mysteries. For those of us who can't become real live detectives, the best we can do is become a detective through these games. :)

[@nutella7644]

im 9 months late but when does that happen?

[@bae_bea8846]

@@nutella7644 in the end game part where Nancy is reading her letter to ned

[@writerspen010]

LOLLL when the Phantom strikes, and the newspaper appears on-screen, "Venetian" is spelled differently (that is, correctly) than on the newspaper on the entryway table on day 1

[@lindseyreisker]

Does anyone know if we ever find out who Samantha Quick really is? There is a lot of theories on the web but not sure what is true.

[@abbylynne1371]

She reappears in the silent spy, amd we find out her real identity

[@lindseyreisker]

@@abbylynne1371 Who is she?

[@mizzwriter13]

@@lindseyreisker SPOILERS her name is supposedly (and I say supposedly because she's a spy and I don't know how much of the information is "really" her and how much is just another secret identity) Zoe Wolfe. We see her in Silent Spy as someone who is keeping an eye on Nancy, and she brings up the fact that Nancy stole her identity in Venice (saying that it's not cool to steal someone's secret identity).

[@lindseyreisker]

@@mizzwriter13 oh yeah, I remember that! I wish they would have done more with that story line. But thank you so much for clearing that up a bit. It is definitely one of my favorite games because we get to learn about Nancy's mother.

[@jjdoughboy2103]

2:32:00 i think they could if they made it episodic based with each being a group of culprits with a few straggling clues which lead to the next group in the next episode

[@superdongshinee1794]

Cafes in Italy really aren't that expensive, for just espresso or something like that. Although I usually just go to local places, not big cities.

[@writerspen010]

I never experienced overpriced cafes either, even when visiting big cities. It was always one to two euro from what I remember

[@karricompton]

I gave you a thumbs up just because of your Prudence impersonation.

[@stephaniegaub3745]

What do margherita and colin say if you picked the bird watching option? 😂

[@dianae3024]

Margherita talks about meeting Red Knott at a party and Colin talks about wanting to pick up bird watching as a hobby.

[@ghosttrees5362]

Just wondering...what was the big deal about stealing Nancy’s locket? I mean, wasn’t it just some cheap pocket that Ned gave her and it wasn’t like one of the priceless items Helena’s henchmen steal? Why was Helena so adamant to keep it?

[@alwaysforever1329]

I think Helena was jealous of how perfect Nancys’ life seemed to be. For example when Nancy tells her the necklace is from her boyfriend she says something like “you really do have it all don’t you”

[@RyuzakiHirokai]

Everyone wanted Sonny Joon as a character. I always wanted Prudence Rutherford and Eustacia Andropov

[@audyegonzalez8626]

2021 mega marathon sometime soon???

[@mystify9293]

colin: look at that color me: mmmm mustard

[@gussiejives]

What I don't understand is that they could have used Briscola rather than Scopa if they wanted to use an Italian trick-taking card game with only one opponent. Not only is Briscola a much more straightforward game using the same deck of cards, but it can be played with 2 people as well as 4. It requires just as much strategy for what cards to play when. For those who haven't played it, it's kinda like Euchre only there's no requirement to follow suit and it's based on points per card rather than tricks. This makes remembering what cards have been played and what cards are still out there critical to winning. I played the game all the time in college.

[@kaileemeade6801]

I like all of your videos of Nancy Drew! I wonder if I can do a walkthrough of Nancy Drew: Trail of the Twister, I completed that game a few weeks ago.

[@Olivia-qi1sy]

I was today years old when I learned that Luigi was not the name of the gondolier but a way to take it for free

[@writerspen010]

It kind of bugs me that Margarita, an Italian, uses the English plural "euros" (it's just "euro" in Italian, singular and plural)

[@stuffwithsoph8264]

"Euro" is singular and plural everywhere, only Americans say "euros"

[@hannahkillian689]

You were going for Yoda? I thought of Grover from Sesame Street...

[@erinsquire2749]

no I like it great job of the yoda voice

[@annajinx5858]

Lol! The colorblind comment made me laugh so hard

[@natalieruiz59]

Colin is not a Suspect...

[@writerspen010]

I know this was last year, but since you were struggling -- "Gervase" is pronounced "Ger-VAH-sey," (ending rhymes with "grey") not "Ger-vase." In Italian with the exception of "-gli" (e.g. consigliere) and "-gn" (e.g. lasagna) you pronounce every letter you see.

[@isaac4533]

I can do Mickey mouse voice! Bit of a voice actor

[@3rcpro-life-semper1m5]

That's really cool 👍 and a great talent! Are there any other voices you can do??

[@anthonypinkerton1809]

Would you please shut up! You're making the game take much too long!

[@crimson_auror]

Dude, if you don’t like livestream commentary then find someone else to watch. Many many people like this format. There’s other people with gameplay walkthroughs that don’t talk if that’s what you prefer. Kindly stop harassing this man. You’re being an ass.

[@nanaxo937]

If you don't like how Arglefumph does his videos, why do you continue to watch and take time out of your day to comment, knowing you don't like how he plays the games? You have so many options of people with no commentary, fuck outta here with your negative ass. 🙄
