    Any game that’s concurrently released with a Netflix release is probably something you should be skeptical of.

      @ngwoo, I really enjoyed the old text-based ones when I was younger. I played the original Where in the World and I think so the Where in Time. But those were early gaming days and I was younger too.

      So I’m curious, but not too excited.

        I played those too, as well as Math Detective! I loved them, but they were the only games we had (parents wanted us to exclusively play educational games).

    When we were helping my parents move earlier this year we found the desktop encyclopedia that came with my original copy of the game!

      There was a multi-year animated series on Netflix just a few years ago, and evidently it must still do well given this announcement.

      the publishers note that a live-action Carmen Sandiego movie is also in the works at Netflix

      They’ve released 22 video games over the last 40 years, they may have slowed a little in recent decades but they never really stop.
