Nancy Drew 1: Secrets Can Kill! (Remastered) Hints
What do I do with these odd notes I keep finding?
1 of 3: Each note (there's one on every bulletin board, and lots of other places too) has two important features: it tells you something important, usually in some sort of code, and it includes an odd letter-number combination, like He:U2.
2 of 3: Decipher the coded messages to find out something about the central mystery, then jot down the letter-number combination. (Nancy will also note these combinations in her journal for you.)
3 of 3: The significance of the combinations will become clear near the end of the game. In the meantime, keep looking for the coded messages everywhere you go. There are 18 of them to find (15 at the school, 3 at the diner), and you need to find them all.
