Netflix’s New Game Carmen Sandiego Brings the Iconic Thief as a Detective

Carmen Sandiego: From Villain to Virtuoso Detective!

Gameloft and HarperCollins Productions have teamed up to deliver a thrilling new game featuring the iconic red-coated thief, Carmen Sandiego. This Netflix exclusive puts you in Carmen's shoes for the first time ever.

Become Carmen Sandiego

This globe-trotting adventure casts you as Carmen, now a detective tasked with tracking down VILE's most cunning criminals and safeguarding the world's precious artifacts. VILE is back, orchestrating daring heists, and it's up to you to follow the trail, chase them across stunningly recreated real-world locations like Rio de Janeiro and Singapore, and bring them to justice.

Expect a blend of classic detective work and high-octane action. You'll employ your wits to gather intelligence, crack codes, and bypass security systems in engaging minigames. Carmen's arsenal of cutting-edge spy gadgets, including a grappling hook, night vision goggles, and a glider, will aid your dramatic escapes.

You won't be facing this challenge alone. Carmen has her trusty hacker ally, Player, providing remote intel support to help track down notorious VILE agents, including the familiar Paper Star from the Netflix animated series.

Netflix Exclusive (for now!)

This premium, single-player puzzle adventure is currently available for free to Netflix subscribers, with no in-app purchases. The game is also slated for release on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and Steam.

For fans who remember the original "Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?" from 1985, this game offers a fascinating role reversal. Download it now from the Google Play Store.
