 Disappointing March 25, 2010

Looking for a fun game with a bit of challenge? Then this is not the game for you.
In this version of Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego, the plot is dumbed down, the dialogue could use a lot of work (they spout facts instead of carrying a real conversation), and you are spoon-fed what you need to do next in your missions. The puzzles aren't even challenging at all. Admittingly, I am a bit older than the target audience; however, I do not see the fun in a game that isn't even a challenge. For really young kids, this might be an okay game, but I do not recommend this game for the higher age range listed.
For those of you looking to regain the fond memories of travelling with Acme (Broderbund version), this will be a sore disappointment; don't waste your money.

ow disappointing -- this game won't load on Win XP. Tried a variety of ways, and no support for this product from Encore either. Don't bother - a waste for XPers.

Where in the world is Carmen San Diego? I wouldn't know. The disk is either defective or does not work with Windows Vista.

Got error message; it will not run. I tried using "run older program" from control panel, with no avail. Did not return as shipping will likely cost more than the product.

The game stinks. It does not work on Windows Vista as it claims it does. Also when i loaded it on a different computer with Windows XP it would only work for 5 minutes and then shut down. Piece of garbage.
