Carmen Sandiego is making a thrilling return, but this time, she's not evading capture—she's the one doing the chasing. Gameloft and HarperCollins Productions have teamed up to bring us a new game featuring the iconic red-coated thief, and it's available exclusively on Netflix.
You Play as Carmen Sandiego
In this exciting new Netflix game, you get to step into Carmen's shoes for the very first time. Embark on a globe-trotting adventure packed with cutting-edge gadgets, daring heists, and face-offs against VILE's most cunning criminals. Carmen, once the notorious villain, has now turned detective, dedicated to thwarting thieves and safeguarding the world's most precious treasures. As VILE continues their high-stakes heists, you'll follow the trail of clues, chase them around the world, and ensure justice prevails.
The gameplay combines classic detective work with high-tech action. You'll gather intelligence, crack safes, and hack security systems through engaging minigames. The game features beautifully rendered real-world locales such as Rio de Janeiro and Singapore, bringing the adventure to life.
Carmen is equipped with an array of spy gear, including a grappling hook, night vision goggles, and a glider for those dramatic rooftop escapes. She's not alone in this mission; her hacker ally, Player, provides remote intel to help track down VILE's top agents, including the notorious Paper Star from the Netflix animated series.

If you're a Netflix subscriber, you can dive into this premium, single-player puzzle adventure at no extra cost. There are no in-game purchases to worry about. The game is also slated to launch later on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam.
For those who remember the classic 'Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?' from 1985, this game offers a fresh take on the beloved character. You can download it from the Google Play Store and see how the narrative has evolved.
