Nancy Drew: The Creature of Kapu Cave PC

Nancy travels to Hawaii as a research assistant for Dr. Quigley Kim to determine why the population of native caterpillars has exploded. She runs into the Mapu’s – the family of a budding pro surfer. The Hardy Boys, on a separate covert operation, are also visiting the Mapu’s and staying at the family’s cultural immersion center.

Before Nancy leaves for the camp, Mike Mapu warns her to avoid the Hilihili research compound and its evil vibes; it’s super secretive and some believe it’s linked to the Kāne ‘Ōkala. Local legend has it that a long time ago, a man was sacrificed to the hungry volcano to appease it. Kāne ‘Ōkala, or “the rough-skinned man,” later escaped from the volcano, but he was scarred for life with a rough-skinned and frightening appearance.

When Nancy arrives at Camp Quigley, she sees a monster ravaging the camp, and soon discovers that Dr. Quigley is missing! Could the monster she saw be Kāne ‘Ōkala?

As Nancy explores the island, she finds more than she bargained for: invasive beetles are damaging the island’s ecology and could pack a devastating blow; are there ties between the beetle and caterpillar problems and the secret compound? Could the mad scientist of the Hilihili research compound, be behind it all? Maybe the Kāne ‘Ōkala is back for revenge.

As her Hawaiian adventure unfolds, Nancy discovers the Kapu, or “forbidden” cave, and suspects that something mysterious is hidden in the cave – behind the Tiki Centennials (totems) and caterpillar webs that guard the entrance.
