Embark on a thrilling new adventure with Carmen Sandiego: from notorious thief to globe-trotting detective! Gameloft and HarperCollins Productions have teamed up to deliver a Netflix exclusive game where you play as Carmen herself.

Become Carmen Sandiego

For the first time ever, you'll experience the world through Carmen's eyes. This isn't your average detective game; expect high-stakes heists, cutting-edge technology, and a showdown with VILE's most cunning criminals. Carmen, once the elusive villain, now protects the world's most valuable treasures, tracking down VILE's nefarious agents. Follow the clues, chase them across stunningly recreated real-world locations like Rio de Janeiro and Singapore, and bring them to justice.

Gameplay involves classic detective work combined with high-octane action. Engage in minigames that test your skills in gathering intelligence, cracking safes, and hacking security systems. Carmen's arsenal of spy gadgets, including a grappling hook, night vision goggles, and a glider, will aid in dramatic rooftop escapes.

She's not alone in this fight. Carmen has the support of her tech-savvy ally, Player, who provides remote intelligence, helping track down VILE's top operatives, including the infamous Paper Star from the Netflix animated series.

Netflix Exclusive (for now!)

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

Fans of the original 1985 "Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego?" will find this a captivating twist on the classic franchise. Download it now from the Google Play Store.
