Treasure in the Royal Tower is the 4th installment in the Nancy Drew video game series by Her Interactive.

Plot[]

Follow ancient clues to find Marie Antoinette's legendary secret! While snowed-in at the Wickford Castle Ski Resort. Nancy Drew, is trapped in a place that's as strange as its history. The castle is a riddle, full of dead-ends and detours that hint at a legend left behind by Marie Antoinette! Solve baffling puzzles, search concealed rooms, interview evasive suspects, and sidestep danger on the hunt for a secret that the doomed Queen was desperate to hide.

Characters[]

Dexter Egan -- An orphan, but later adopted son of Ezra Wickford. He resides in Wickford Castle as the caretaker, despite the fact that he was under no circumstances to inherit the castle after being disowned.


Professor Beatrice Hotchkiss -- A "scholar of French history," though "specializing in Marie Antoinette." She spends most of her time in her room typing away for her "research." Professor Hotchkiss returns in Legend of the Crystal Skull and Tomb of the Lost Queen.


Lisa Ostrum -- A photojournalist who is at the castle to write an article about old Wisconsin mansions. Usually seen reading a magazine by the fire.


Jacques Brunais -- A famous French skier. Nancy learns that he was formerly a contestant in "last year's Winter Olympics." Jacques is thought by many to be quite good-looking and spends his time at Wickford Castle as a ski instructor as well as making wooden "hope" boxes. He also has a fiancé named Isabelle.


Bess Marvin, George Fayne, and Ned Nickerson -- Nancy's best friends and boyfriend that help her with the case via telephone.
