Summary
Where in Time Is Carmen Sandiego? on the NES throws you into a chase that spans both geography and history. Armed with the New America Desk Encyclopedia, you interview witnesses and scour locations to piece together temporal clues, turning each turn into a mini‑detective puzzle. The encyclopedia doubles as a clever copy‑protection tool, making the printed pages part of the gameplay experience. As you hop from ancient ruins to futuristic cities, the game rewards careful note‑taking and a knack for matching eras with suspects. It’s a nostalgic blend of trivia and adventure that feels fresh even decades later.
