The Phantom of Venice is the eighteenth game in the Nancy Drew adventure series. It is based on Nancy Drew Mystery Stories #78: The Phantom of Venice.

Plot

Valuable artifacts are being stolen from all over Venice by the thief known as "Il Fantasma" or "The Phantom". Somehow he is able to steal the artifacts without breaking anything or tripping any alarms whatsoever, always managing to escape in the dead of night. The Italian police force can use all the help they can get as Carnivale draws near, and Nancy is personally contacted by the GDiF to help investigate.
