This is am amazing game that taught me a lot about geography, history, and 80s geopolitics. We need a version for 2025 on GOG, which would be a total blast.
Listen up Gumshoe!. I can't believe that such a classic game is not on GOG. I played this game when I was kid, and I thought that the illustrations looked so realitic (compared to 8 bit system). I would really want to get this game. In fact we need all of the Where in... collection.
I have started many games, many times. But I have not started as many times as this one. Back then I was too young and didn't know enough English to properly play the game, I still try a new game every now and then with old emulators and abandonware sites.
The entire Carmen Sandiego series needs to come to gog as part of the gog preservation program in all their original glory!
These great games need to be presented and preserved in their original format so players new and old can enjoy them for many years to come!
No updates or enhancements, please!
This game had the best copy protection ever. It shipped with a 900 page World Almanac and expected you to USE it! What does the flag of Albania look like? Which country has the anthem "Amhrán na bhFiann"? Where is the Volga river? These were things you had to look up in a BOOK!
The Carmen Sandiego series was a big influence in developing my love for history and geography, not to mention my love for gaming on pc in those early days. I only got to try them at school, so I never had the opportunity to finish any of them. They shouldn't be lost to time.
Personally, I used to own the deluxe edition from 1992. Even though I played it when I was a child with my mom, on our first ever computer we had in the family. It was a fun game. It always drives you to learn more about geography. And looking back, the windows re-releases from the 90s greatly enhanced the look and feel of the original DOS game.
