"Carmen Sandiego: From Thief to Detective in Netflix's New Game"

Carmen Sandiego is back, but this time, she's not outsmarting detectives; she's become one. Developed by Gameloft and HarperCollins Productions, this game transforms the iconic red-coated super thief into a globe-trotting detective. It's a Netflix exclusive, and it's available right now.

You Play as Carmen Sandiego

In Netflix's new game, you step into Carmen's shoes for the first time ever, embarking on a thrilling adventure that spans the world. Expect high-tech gadgets, daring heists, and a showdown with VILE's most elusive criminals. Once the elusive villain, Carmen now tracks down thieves and protects the world's greatest treasures. As VILE pulls off high-profile heists, you, as Carmen, follow the clues, chase them across the globe, and bring them to justice.

The game combines classic detective work with high-tech action. You'll gather intel, crack safes, and hack security systems through engaging minigames. The stunning recreations of real-world locations like Rio de Janeiro and Singapore enhance the immersive experience. Carmen is equipped with an arsenal of spy gear, including a grappling hook, night vision goggles, and a glider for those dramatic rooftop escapes.

Carmen isn't working alone. She's joined by her hacker ally, Player, who feeds intel remotely to help track down VILE's top agents, including Paper Star from the Netflix animated series.

Do You Have a Netflix Subscription?

If you do, you can download the game for free. It's a premium, single-player puzzle adventure with no in-game purchases. While it's currently a Netflix exclusive, it's set to expand to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam later on.

If you grew up with 'Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?' from 1985, you'll appreciate how this game flips the script. You can check it out on the Google Play Store.
