I miss Carmen Sandiego. It was an awesome game. All I have now is Rock-apella.

Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego was still pretty old (released by 1991). I remember having that one as a kid.

Where in Space is Carmen Sandiego, that was after my time.

Edit: Where in Time was released in 1989, Where in Space was released in 1993 so maybe I just didn't see it until later.

Hmm... sounds like I misremember since I was 5 in 1989. Course, I always got the hand me down games... Still those dates don't sound right but I trust your research.

In other words, Never mind me!

Is it possible that it's Carmen Sandiego Word Detective? Here's a list of games in the series:

I played Carmen for hours without ever knowing the rules

While at school I played number munchers on the Apple II and some Zork clone (with B&W graphics made up with about a dozen lines) on the mac. I always ended up in dark areas, getting killed by some grue substitute.

that list can´t be correct... there was no SNES in 1985.
in japan it was released in 1990. 1992 in europe i think.
sega master system also wasn´t released before 1985.
NES came out in 1983. guess you had an NES, fiona. ; )

i played alota consoles, but i must admit i never cared about carmen sandiego! i never even heard about games with that content.^^

...after thinking about it, it´s possible they mean it was FIRST released on amiga or whatever in 1985 and later on the other systems. damn.
