Nancy Drew: Danger By Design Hints
No one is talking to me!
1 of 7: Except for Minette and Dieter, people will always talk to you, but Nancy doesn't always have something to ask. When you try to talk to everyone and Nancy has nothing interesting to say, it usually means there's a puzzle you haven't solved yet; check your checklist and journal if you're not sure what it is.
2 of 7: When nothing seems to work, here are a couple of things to try:
3 of 7: -- Go back to Minette and see if she has something new for you to do.
4 of 7: -- Call everyone in your phone book, including the US friends.
5 of 7: -- If Heather is gone and you haven't done it yet, try to open the Dodo box.
6 of 7: -- Read all the magazines in the game (two at Minette's studio, one at JJ's apartment).
7 of 7: -- When using these hints, read all the way to the end of the hint! Remember, we're trying to keep from just giving you the answers, so the spoilers are usually at the very end of the hint.
