My spouse Cathy joins me for this stream as we play through the first seven episodes (of nineteen) of this edutainment game that revitalised the Carmen Sandiego series as a point and click adventure. It's a lot of fun seeing how they handle history in the context of children's education, striking a balance between accuracy and simplicity, and the game has a lot to recommend it: the voice acting, cheesy puns, and a relatively broad coverage of world history.

We played this using VILEBox, a preconfigured DOSBox installer that includes all the PC games in the series (manuals are also included, which helped us with a few sticky spots): https://archive.org/details/vilebox
