Nancy has barely set foot on the premises and already trouble is afoot! It's up to Nancy to solve this mystery before all the guests leave and Chantal is left out in the cold. As Nancy makes her way to the lodge, an explosion destroys the bunkhouse and a wolf howls ominously in the distance. A white wolf also appears at the site of the accidents and then mysteriously disappears when the police arrive. Chantal, the owner of the lodge, has asked her to investigate a recent string of suspicious accidents that have happened at the lodge. Nancy Drew travels to Alberta, Canada to stay at Icicle Creek Lodge. The latter incorporated the different control scheme into the gameplay and minigiames. The game was originally released in June 2007 for Windows but was ported to the Wii in December 2008. The game is loosely based on a book entitled The Mystery of the Mother Wolf (2000). There are two levels of gameplay, Junior and Senior detective modes, each offering a different difficulty level of puzzles and hints, however neither of these changes affect the actual plot of the game. Players take on the first-person view of fictional amateur sleuth Nancy Drew and must solve the mystery through interrogation of suspects, solving puzzles, and discovering clues. It has an ESRB rating of E, though the game does have a premise unlikely to be understood by children and it does have some moments of mild violence and references to alcoholic beverages. The game is available for play on Microsoft Windows platforms as well as the Nintendo Wii. The White Wolf of Icicle Creek is the 16th installment in the Nancy Drew point-and-click adventure game series by Her Interactive.
