Product photo is not correct
Rating: 1/5
I bought this thinking it was the Carmen Sandiego from the mid-nineties, which is what the product photos show. The actual game for sale is the 2001 "Treasures of Knowledge," which is a great game, just not what we were looking for. The product description is correct, but the photos should be fixed to avoid future confusion.
Carmen Sandiego
Rating: 5/5
I loved this game when I was younger! Even to this day I still remember:
"Agent Shadow Hawkins reporting, Chief. I'm in. No sign of intruders. Search plan delta delta two. Jules, how did you!!...""I took the elevator." Sadly, I can't remember the rest except for "ten o'clock! red hat!" and "I know you, and you're no simple criminal. Why are you doing this?" and lastly, "Catch me if you can, ACME agents! Hahahahaha!" This was the best game ever! So, I would DEFINITELY recommend it to anyone. Also, if you are a fan of this game, I would recommend the Nancy Drew PC series from HER Interactive. It's pretty similar, but the next level and they still release new ones twice a year.

I'm the guy who talked about the throwing knife thing. Here, I copied this from a site, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?
...and where has her gang of thieves taken the loot? You're the detective tracking down culprits in this globe-hopping mystery action game. And as you work your way up the five challenge levels from Rookie to Ace Detective, the mysteries get more complicated and your suspect and his henchmen become more aggressive, firing bullets and throwing knives you must duck on-screen.
In each case, one of 10 elusive villains has stolen one of 90 national treasures and absconded to one of 30 foreign cities. Chase your suspect around the world, racing the clock and making crucial decisions: What city did he go to? Where will you investigate, the Embassy or the Warehouse? Collect pertinent facts from the special Almanac, and travel the globe until you've got the goods on your crook. When you know whodunit, visit Interpol and bring your suspect to justice!
So, here is the website where they said this: http://www.consoleclassix.com/snes/where_in_the_world_is_carmen_sandiego.html
Copy it to your web bar/browser thing.
Just like when we were kids

This game is educational and fun. We have a 6yr old boy who loves this. He is learning to put the case together to find Carmen. It, however, does not work on our Windows XP but does work on our MacBook.
A fairly good product.

My only complaint is that i didn't realize it was the version for schools. Other than that it is good.
