Did You Know?

Kevin Manthei is often credited for writing the music for Nancy Drew games 1-25, but did you know he didn't actually compose every song for each soundtrack? For some of the earlier games, other artists were involved in creating some of the songs in the games, yet Manthei is often solely referred to as the main composer. Interestingly enough, he didn't actually compose any music on the soundtrack for Warnings at Waverly Academy, either. Instead, another company called SomaTone Interactive Audio wrote the music for game 21 as well as The Hardy Boys: Treasure on the Tracks. For games 26-32, HeR Interactive hired Thomas Regin of North by Sound to compose the soundtracks. Since there was such a long delay between games 32 and 33, HeR Interactive hired another composer named Ryan Ricks who is actually married to the current voice of Nancy Drew, Brittany Cox.
