Netflix’s New Game Carmen Sandiego Brings the Iconic Thief as a Detective

Carmen Sandiego returns, but this time, she's traded her thieving ways for a detective's badge. Gameloft and HarperCollins Productions have teamed up to create a Netflix exclusive game featuring the iconic red-coated criminal-turned-hero.

Play as Carmen Sandiego

For the first time ever, you become Carmen Sandiego in this globe-trotting adventure. Expect high-tech gadgets, daring heists, and a showdown with VILE's most cunning criminals. Carmen, once the elusive villain, now hunts down thieves and protects the world's most valuable treasures. VILE is back, pulling off audacious heists, and it's up to you, as Carmen, to follow the clues, chase them across the globe, and bring them to justice.

The game blends classic detective work with high-octane action. You'll gather intelligence, crack safes, and hack security systems in engaging minigames. Explore stunning recreations of real-world locations, from the vibrant streets of Rio de Janeiro to the futuristic skyline of Singapore.

Carmen’s arsenal of spy gear includes a grappling hook, night vision goggles, and a glider for those dramatic rooftop escapes. She's not alone, though. Her hacker ally, Player, provides remote intel to help track down VILE's top agents, including Paper Star from the Netflix animated series.
