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

Carmen Sandiego returns, but this time, she's traded her thieving ways for a detective's badge. Gameloft and HarperCollins Productions have created a Netflix exclusive game starring the iconic red-coated criminal-turned-hero.

You Are Carmen Sandiego

For the first time ever, you play as Carmen Sandiego herself! Embark on a globe-trotting adventure filled with high-tech gadgets, daring heists, and thrilling showdowns with VILE's most cunning criminals. Having once been the elusive villain, Carmen now uses her skills to track down thieves and safeguard the world's most precious treasures. VILE is back, pulling off daring heists, and it's up to you, as Carmen, to follow the clues, chase them across the globe, and bring them to justice.

Expect a blend of classic detective work and high-octane action. You'll gather intelligence, crack safes, and hack security systems in engaging minigames. Explore stunning recreations of real-world locations, from the vibrant streets of Rio de Janeiro to the futuristic cityscape of Singapore.

Carmen’s arsenal of spy gear is at your fingertips, including a grappling hook for daring escapes, night vision goggles for covert operations, and a glider for dramatic rooftop getaways.

But Carmen doesn't go it alone. Her hacker ally, Player, provides remote intel to help track down VILE's top agents, including the infamous Paper Star from the Netflix animated series.
