It's time to catch that sticky fingered filcher Gumshoes! 🖤

The media could not be loaded. A brilliant blast from the past. Talk about nostalgic! The over look of this little unit definitely looks like an old apple 2 and just instantly reminds me of computer day back in school. The picture quality looks just like it did when played on an old apple monitor with just a bit more clarity. The sound is fantastic, not to loud but not to quiet, with three different volume levels. The game obviously plays perfect. Does not skip a beat. I am so glad I got this, both actually. As I did purchase ,The Oregon Trail unit as well. If you get the chance to get your mittens on either, I highly recommend it. Well made. Comfort to hold while playing and gameplay is just brilliant and nostalgic. 5 STARS!! I hope more are released.

Good gift for someone with nostalgia for early PC games

The screen is very small and hard to read at times. The game itself is true to the original Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego which makes it very giftable for a person known to have nostalgia for old games from the days of Amiga and Atari. I wish the screen was bigger but for the price you really can't ask much more than what you will get. As a plus, they did add a sound button with off, medium and high sound settings which is great because in high sound mode it can be annoying to someone near you. I would recommend buying, but if you are like me you will need your reading eyeglasses to play this game.

Great piece of my childhood!

Works well, graphics are crisp and the sound is great! Sort of wish this was the "Deluxe" version with digitized speech and music, but it's cool anyway. Only issue was the included batteries were almost dead and I was starting to think the unit was defective until I swapped them out for some fresh AA's and viola, problem solved! I seriously hope Basic Fun makes more of these handhelds! I'd love to see "Sim City", "Master of Orion", "Eye of The Beholder", etc..

Classic Fun

This is the exact game I played on a computer back in the mid 90s but now on a handheld. You can start a profile for multiple users to play separately and track their detective stats which is fun. It’s educational and my ten year old enjoys it although struggles with some clues. It’s a puzzle/detective game so it doesn’t need the flashy graphics of now but if that’s what your looking for you won’t get it here. Great value for the price.

Fun Game

The version of Carmen Sandiego on this handheld game isn't one that I originally played. I think the first one of these games I had was the 'Where in Time Is Carmen Sandiego?'. Still - I'm enjoying playing with this handheld game.I bought this mainly because I have one of the other similar handheld games - the Oregon Trail one, and I liked it.

Fantastic blast-from-the-past repackaged for today's youth

Whomever came up with this idea is a genius. I loved the Carmen Sandiego games as a kid on my old PC.I purchased this for my 13-year-old as a smaller gift at Christmas, half expecting him to maybe give it a cursory look and not play with it again (while I solve the mysteries on my own after bedtime). To my surprise, he loves it.Warning: You will learn about the inadequacy of your public school's geography education very quickly though.SON: Dad, where is the Taj Mahal?ME: Well, It's an Indian-made mausoleum. What are your choices?SON: New York, Agra, Singapore and London.ME: Okay, so now where do you think?SON: Ah! New York!

A blast from the past

Talk about a blast from the past I just realized that they made these things and as soon as I found that out I pretty much had to have it this was one of my favorite games when I was a kid. one of the first times I use the computer was in school and as mostly remember the only had game such as this and Oregon trail for anything that was actually good so I guess I can think school of all places for learning how to play a video game. LOL but all kidding aside it's just as good as I remember it being way back in the day
