Gesucht wird: Carmen Sandiego

Carmen Sandiego, eine der bekanntesten Meisterdiebinnen, ist bald wieder auf der Flucht vor den PC-Spielern. Bereits zu seligen Amiga-Zeiten machte sie Sherlock-Holmes-Verehrern das Leben schwer. 1985 erschien Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? und avancierte zu einem der erfolgreichsten Spiele - immerhin 6 Millionen Exemplare sind laut Publisher BAM! Entertainment verkauft worden.

"We are excited to team up with BAM! to bring Carmen Sandiego to the video gaming world," sagte Eric Stone, Riverdeep's Executive Vice President und General manager für die Learning Company Produkte. "Her mysterious and clever nature has intrigued kids for many years. She's not an evil villain, but she is certainly a prankster, and a character we feel will transfer very well to gaming platforms", so Stone weiter.

"BAM! is constantly looking for new ways to deliver solid content to the expanding, all-ages gaming audience, and Carmen Sandiego is a natural fit," erklärte Bernard Stolar, President and Chief Operating Officer von BAM! Entertainment. "Carmen Sandiego is a well-established brand, standing the test of time and various line extensions beyond her PC roots. I believe it is the perfect property to bring to gaming consoles and a new generation of players."
