Help!
The notorious Carmen Sandiego is on the loose. She and her gang are swiping precious landmarks and treasures all over the map. They're filching everything from the Mona Lisa's smile to the Statue of Liberty's torch.
Squads of ace detectives are already in hot pursuit: intrepid investigators like those pictured here. But Carmen's not easy to nab. She's a very furtive fugitive.
So there's plenty of challenging excitement waiting for you.
So much fun it ought to be illegal
The Acme Detective Agency will quickly assign you to a case. Then get ready for a whirlwind chase.
Start at the scene of the crime, questioning witnesses. To help you decipher the clues you uncover, each game comes with a reference book packed with information about the cities and countries you'll need to visit.

Collar the right rascal and you'll be on your way to a promotion... and new and tougher cases.
