Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Niko Jovic, a renowned scientist, has been murdered, and the case is cold! The scientist, who was co-owner of a institute known as the "Technology of Tomorrow: Today", was electrocuted in a Tesla coil room. Video tapes show no one came in or left after him. Nancy Drew, eager to solve the case, heads off to what U.S. state?

Answer: Colorado

The institute is located in Colorado Springs, Colorado. It is a highly restricted area, meaning that there are only a few suspects. Nancy's cover is doing due diligence for a new investor.

2. As Nancy arrives at the institute, she gets a call from Victor Lossett, a co-owner of the organization before Niko died, who hired Nancy. He calls Niko "a "great man", and asks Nancy to find out who did this atrocity. She receives a code to Niko's desk drawer from Victor. Inside the desk drawer, what will Nancy find?

Answer: Police case file

The case file lists the people involved with the institute that are potential suspects. These people are Victor Lossett, Ellie York, Gary Cortright, Mason Quinto and Ryan Kilpatrick.

The case file also says that the body was found by Ellie York at 12:13 a.m., and the cause of death was electrocution.

3. In Niko Jovic's office, Nancy can find what mechanical bird?

Answer: A pigeon

The pigeon just seems like decoration, but later on, Nancy will discover that it has a big secret. Nancy will need magnets to find out what it is, and solve the case!

4. Nancy decides to investigate Ryan Kilpatrick first, who apparently threatened Niko and built the machine that killed him. Ryan is the technology specialist at the institute. In order to fix the tape player in Miko's office, Ryan asks Nancy to get her what candy?

Answer: Koko Mallos

Niko Jovic's room has a candy machine. To get candy, Nancy must play a game of "Simon Says".

Interestingly, these candies were also featured in the "Trail of the Twister".

5. Nancy gets a call from an old high school enemy, Deidre Shannon. She mentions about how a friend of her father wanted Deidre to give a reference for Nancy. Deidre hangs up, but later on, she tries to help with the case in order to compensate for a plagiarized essay she submitted. Deidre finds pictures of Ryan standing next to what object, proving Ryan's innocence?

Answer: A clock

Ryan had attended an awards ceremony the night of Niko's death, but she still had enough time to get to the institute and kill Niko. The pictures Deidre found, which were taken by two freelance photographers, prove that she could not have made it there in time.

Deidre Shannon is also featured in the game, "Alibi in Ashes".

6. Mason Quinto is a research assistant at the institute, who works during the day. He has a very logical approach to life. His computer password is what Nikola Tesla factoid?

Answer: Tesla's hometown

Tesla was born on July 10th, 1856 in Smiljan, a Croatian town. You don't need to be a wizard to figure it out; a book in Nancy's sleeping area mentions the town.

7. Ellie York is a research assistant who works during the night. She gives Nancy a demonstration of the Tesla coil lab where Niko was killed, but does not let Nancy do anything else there. Ellie does not normally let people snoop through Mason's work area. Nancy is allowed to snoop if she can beat Mason's high score for what arcade game?

Answer: Aggregation

In Aggregation, you have to put three of the same objects adjacent to each other to remove from the board. Once you clear all objects, you win! There are special power-ups you get that make the game easier.

Mason's high score is 22500 or 31575, depending on what level of difficulty you're playing.

8. Gray Cortright is the head of security at the facility. He doesn't talk very much. Hidden behind some coat racks in his office, what can you find?

Answer: Diploma

The diploma is for physics, and it says it was given to Gary Cortright. Why is a genius like him working in security? Is there more to his story than meets the eye?

The Future Omelet of Secrets (an Easter egg) is a real item in the game. It can be obtained if you activate the mechanical pigeon in Niko's office several times.

9. Victor Lossett hired Nancy to find out who killed Niko Jovic.

Answer: False

Not even close!

Victor killed Niko. He edited the security footage to make it appear that no one came back in. He turned on the coil and electrocuted Niko while he was working.

Victor believed that until the case was solved, people would always try and figure out who killed Niko.

Victor was the one who asked for a reference for Nancy Drew. He wanted to find a detective who would assume Ryan was guilty. Because of Deidre's hate for Nancy, she made her look very unqualified to be a detective, and thus, Victor thought he had found the perfect candidate for the job.

Unfortunately for Victor, Deidre proved Ryan's innocence, and Nancy discovered who really did it. Ironically, if Victor had just done nothing, he may not have been caught.

Victor's exact motive for killing Niko is not mentioned in the game.

10. What does Nancy build that allows her to sneak out a USB drive containing unedited footage of the electrocution?

Answer: Faraday cage

The room containing the footage has been booby-trapped by Niko to destroy electronic devices.

A Faraday cage, similar to the one in the Tesla coil lab, can be used to draw electricity away from itself, keeping the USB drive safe.
