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.

Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise.

The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.Action Stealth
