Nancy Drew on casual gaming portals

[Noone]

I've seen some of ND titles on casual gaming portals like BigFishGames. Is casual auditory interested in such kind of games? Have you recieved any feedback from this kind of people? Does it anyhow differs from the hardcore Nancy fans feedback?

Really a great question!

For us, its simply an alternate way to deliver our games. There is definately some crossover with the audience. The most tangible response has been in 'number of downloads' and this type of delivery has definately expanded our visibility. Most of our feedback comes from our website's forum. It relates more so to the games content and the gameplay experience. There are always players find our games too challenging (store bought or downloaded,) but the niche we target is after a sophisticated, thought provoking mystery and we will continue to appease that group first and foremost.

Can you tell how much of the people from casual gaming portals buy several Nancy games (I mean they bough one, liked it and bough another one or two from the series)?

I don't have that information, sorry.
