Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego? Right in the palm of your hand! Starting today, you can dive into the latest installment of the Carmen Sandiego series on iOS and Android, exclusively for Netflix subscribers. This early release marks a thrilling opportunity for fans to experience the game before it hits other platforms.

In this new adventure, Carmen Sandiego, the iconic criminal turned vigilante, takes on her former allies in the nefarious secret syndicate, V.I.L.E. Players will follow Sandiego as she globe-trots to track down and capture V.I.L.E. agents. The game introduces a mix of exploration, subterfuge, and engaging minigames like hang-gliding, which add a fresh layer of excitement to the gameplay.

This iteration of the series diverges from its predecessors, which were primarily point-and-click adventures where Sandiego played the role of the villain. The shift to portraying her as a globe-trotting vigilante, now available exclusively on Netflix before other platforms, underscores the significance of this reinvention.
