Acme Products: The sleuths worked for the Acme Detective Agency, the agency the player of the computer games works for.Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? provides examples of: note Geographically speaking, Hawaii is not considered to be part of any continent. In the second season, this was expanded to all of North America presumably, Hawaii was never an option. The winner of that round played the end game, placing markers on a large floor map, hoping to arrest Carmen herself and win the grand prize of a trip anywhere in the 48 contiguous United States. The two remaining children played a game akin to Concentration, looking for the loot, the warrant and the crook, in that order. Halfway through the show, the lowest scorer was eliminated. Instead of playing for cash, the young "detectives" played for points, here called "Acme Crime Bucks". Three children answered multiple-choice geography questions while pursuing a member of Carmen's gang, who had stolen a famous landmark. The series was a co-production between WGBH Boston and WQED Pittsburgh. You can also travel to ACME HQ in San Francisco, but the only thing you can do is start a new case, or assign a new detective.Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? is an Educational Game Show based on the Carmen Sandiego computer games by Brøderbund, which ran for five seasons (295 episodes 65 episodes each in Seasons 1-3 and 50 episodes each in Seasons 4-5) on PBS from Septemto Decem(with reruns airing until May 31, 1996). Locations include (but not limited to) Kathmandu, Dar-es-Salaam, Baghdad, Manila, Lima, Port Moresby, Singapore, New Delhi, and Tokyo. If you keep get promoted, you may find yourself in the hall of fame. Unlike the rest of the Carmen Sandiego games, you're given a quiz just before you get promoted, requiring you to look up the reference that came with the game. If you're not sure about the information you've entered, you can look up the dossiers on each suspect. Once you get enough information about the suspect, you can transmit this information to Warren the Warrant Robot to make him get a warrant for you. If you're lucky, you can contact other informants like Bart Samson and Vinnie the Squealer. The options you can do in each location are the same: you can question witnesses, look up evidence reports, or contact Crime Net to receive additional information about the suspect such as features, hair and eye color, auto, and sport. The life cycle is self-explanatory: sign up for a case, travel between locations questioning witnesses, obtain warrants, and make arrests, and you have approximately a week to do so.
