There are four (?) programs now.  They are commercial (from Broderbund)
and not available from any FTP site.  They run in the neighborhood of
$30-40 each.  Let's see if I can name them:

Where in the World is Carman Sandiego?
Where in the USA is Carman Sandiego?
Where in Europe is Carman Sandiego?
Where in Time is Carman Sandiego?

Many think that the last is the best.  I don't know if they have plans for
any further programs.  They are a sort of mystery adventure.  Your job is
to follow clues and find Carman.  At times you need maps, atlas's and
dictionaries!  They are quite fun and educational.  You learn a lot of
geography, if nothing else.
