Nancy Drew: Ransom of the Seven Ships Hints
Board Game Strategy
This game is pure luck; all you can do is spin the spinner to move. There's no real strategy except to keep hold of your temper and try again, really.
Sonny Joon explains that if you land on the red alleyway in the middle, you will be bumped back to the beginning. Landing on a spot that is already occupied by another piece will also send you back to the beginning. However, if you have already passed the alleyway and then land on another piece, you will only move back two spaces. If you land on the 25th square, you are moved back to the 14th square. To win, you have to get to the WIN square first.
If you lose, don't worry about it and don't get frustrated; just keep playing until you win.
