I had to give it at least one try and relief if you haven't tried to play it yet and choose your adventure books have discouraged wanting to play. You can mess up but be given second chances. In the case of me playing, I fouled up three times but didn't have to restart. Hopefully it's unlimited if you have really poor judgement on what to do. How'd everyone else do before winning? Also how is it important Tigress remembers you helped her? That didn't come into play later on however dealing with Argent really was.

Anyone else laugh when watching the bonus scene? Proof in my opinion the writers had fun coming up with ideas to pander to older viewers - er players. Credits music included.

I played it enough times to get every ending (good and bad) and make a cheat-sheet. If you help tigress, and then choose to go and Save Zack and Ivy (instead of doing the third caper) she saves you from being kidnapped to repay your kindness...
If you don't she leaves you for dead.

Thanks for the info ?.
... Either we're the only people here who have given this a shot or at least the only ones vocal as to having played it?

I started it this morning, but only got as far as the second caper before I had to leave for work. It is enjoyable, but I do not see as how our choices make much difference in the outcomes. Perhaps I'm just not far enough in to it.

@Claire Yeon I am a huge nerd about the Netflix series, It's what got me back into Carmen from my childhood, so I've played the Netflix game a lot there are four different main ending two bad, two good. your decisions do make a big difference.
@systemcat did you like it? (and am I the only one that likes Carmen 2019?)

Yes, I did. What I said earlier really was what was holding me back at first from wanting to give this a try. I figured with the current absence of knowing if there will be a third season, I should give it a chance.

I enjoy the current series but also enjoy the earlier series ( live and animated ). To how I see negativity with reboots, it's those who like the classic material and don't want anything new to deviate from that. I will give shows a decent chance if their premise tugs at my curiosity. To naysayers, two things ring to mind with that. Commenting I heard somewhere, likely YouTube over Nickelodeon programming. Just because one generation enjoys it doesn't mean it was intended for other generations to enjoy it. Also something I used to say to a guy I dated sometime ago. He'd easily get into nerd rages I just felt like giving an eye roll to. What I'd say to him if we were watching programming meant for kids, we were re-watching for the first time in years, and he'd complain about it being intellectually incompetent. I'd say to him, "enjoy a cartoon for a cartoon." I'm still a kid at heart and a long time fan so I accept this. ?

Same. That is what brought me here, actually. I binged-watched the entire first season from an uncomfortable pull-out couch bed at an Air BnB in Victoria, smiling with delight the entire time at the fact that Carmen Sandiego was back. I found this forum that same night, but it took a while to work up the courage to create a character and join. I only wish I had found it sooner.

@Claire Yeon Yeah, I grew up with where in the world and treasure of knowledge... So when 2019 came out I almost didn't watch it because of hero Carmen. But a friend made me and it's now my favorite show! (and Carmen's my favorite character).
I cosplay as a hobby, and my first cosplay when I was either thirteen or fourteen (correction, I looked for photos, I was not eight) was of ivy!
I actually just finished dyeing my hair bright blue for a cosplay of the character Cassandra/moonstone ((yes, I am aware I'm a bit to old to be watching the tangled spin-off show, but I like it, I don't know why...)

Cosplaying Ivy, that is the first time I've heard of anyone doing cosplay with the fandom and it wasn't Carmen. No objections to those who do cosplay Carmen but the fact you picked another character. ?

    [continuing] I'm sorry if any of my posts are/could be inflammatory or anything... some of them are stuff I've had in the pipeline for a while, and I messed with it enough to get it postable... that's why there are dates showing when I started working on stuff... I'm not, and never have been, trying to step on anyone's toes or say "this is how it should be"... I have no say here, not sure who does these days (like I posted... maybe this is a test to see if we devolve into chaos).

    [continuing] I don't have the time to be here a whole lot, I don't have much beyond mom to help with my rent (and once I have a job, that'll take up more time, though I will keep working on stuff (both for here and not) as often as possible, and post when possible on here. I have a question that needs some clarification... being that we are supposed to get permission from the person if we use their character in an addition/story/post, how would that apply if the character is core to the universe (like Carmen... I can replace @Chase, maybe cobble someone into @Ivy's place... but, like @Carmen, being that she's a major character, as long as I don't have her acting or write a major part for her, would that circumvent the rule at all?

    [continuing] I'm just curious... the absence of the major's leaves a gap that I'm not sure what to do with anything... we (the Left Behind) could do a story together (or some stories separate), and that'd be cool, but without being able to use any major's, I'm not sure where to take anything. And, yeah... you can probably guess what my typing is like here (or anyplace else)... I type here or in Word, I type something (or notepad), and 15-20+ seconds later it shows up, so I have to stay on top of my grammar and spelling. I have to keep on top of all that, because I'm working on the big Carmen story at the same time, so I can't slip off my game.))

    @Jon Eckart Not exactly sure if I understand all your computer probs. I hope you get those resolved soon. Yes, I have many probs with my basic Google Chrome, too. I think it's fair to say we all have a love/hate relationship with technology. 😆 As far as your stories are concerned, you can use any cannon character you like, whether there is a person playing that role on here or not. Say the story is a fanfiction; and that the version of Chase, or Carmen (or whoever) from the computer games, gameshow (or whatever). We don't do Netflix Carmen, mostly because of the violence. And because it is fanfiction, you can also create other characters and situations to suit your story. Now, Chase, Carme, Ivy (or whoever) were here, of course, you would ask their permission; tell them your idea; and if they like it they might write it with you. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you for a friendship with someone on--and off-site, you might form a partnership with them, and write stories together (like Chase and Carmen; or Chase and Ivy; or Lucy and I) and then you will just put a statement saying that this story is a co-write with whoever. In fact, if you collaborate with this person a lot, people will just assume they have your permission; although you should always say it anyway, just as a common courtesy. In fact, ironically, the only people whose permission you must always ask to use their characters are "original" characters, who are creations of their individual writers (which most of us on here, are) specifically because we are not cannon. I hope that makes sense. 🙂

    @Jon Eckart Now, if you want to write something, but don't have a lot of time, I would suggest posting a status; or replying to someone else's status. Or you could start a guessing game. Look under Forums/Guessing Games, and look at some things other people have done, to give you ideas. I hope that helps. 🙂
