Second Chances
As with all Nancy Drew games, in this game there are many fatal accidents such as:
- Picking unripe vegetables for Shorty twice.
- Trying to take an egg from the chicken with the warning sign over it.
- Leading the horse to the riding area before getting permission from Tex.
- Leaving the stables while the horse is still saddled up.
- Knocking the jail key to the ground without putting the chair up.
- Over-baking a cake.
- Making the chickens or horses sick.
- Over-exhausting your horse (keeping it away from the ranch for too long)
- Not fixing the hole in the fence and letting the coyotes eat all the chickens.
- Getting bit by a rattlesnake in the garden.
- Get stung by a scorpion.
- Failing to escape and trap the villain in the maze.
- Falling through a hole under the rug while trying to get Dirk Valentine's treasure.
However, like in many of the Nancy Drew games, if the player makes a mistake, they may click on "Second Chance" at the main menu and it will take them back to the place before they made that mistake.

Famous quotes containing the word chances:
“Sustained unemployment not only denies parents the opportunity to meet the food, clothing, and shelter needs of their children but also denies them the sense of adequacy, belonging, and worth which being able to do so provides. This increases the likelihood of family problems and decreases the chances of many children to be adequately prepared for school.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
“For what we call illusions are often, in truth, a wider vision of past and present realities—a willing movement of a man’s soul with the larger sweep of the world’s forces—a movement towards a more assured end than the chances of a single life.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
