Jenny LeClue pretty much did the trick for me. It delivers the kind of cozy-rainy-afternoon-with-a-cup-of-tea Nancy Drew mystery you would expect, with a level of polish and flair you would not expect from a basically one-person development team. Some people who have never met a teenager in their lives find Jenny annoying, but making her a bit mean makes her a better character, and honestly she's probably on the nicer end of the spectrum for kids this age lmao. Anyway, this was not my favorite adventure game of all time, and there are some mild annoyances here and there along the way (Jenny herself not being one of them), but overall I feel like this game deserves a little more love. It is basically the adventure game equivalent of comfort food but I would play the next installment in a heartbeat.
