Game Overview

Before his death, the last descendant from the a line of African Kings reveals an ancient secret that has been concealed for hundreds of years. In his dying breath, he mumbles the key to finding the entrance to the long-lost treasure of his world. Shortly after the death of the descendant, famous African antiquities are reported missing from museums throughout the world. Missing or stolen? The style looks familiar, almost too familiar. Could it be? In this single-player game, the player is the new young special agent intern at A.C.M.E. Throughout his training, under the supervision of A.C.M.E. agents, Jules and Shadow, our athletic hero studied the psychological profile of Carmen Sandiego so that he could be one step beyond her next move and eventually capture the infamous thief once and for all.

The Bottom Line

The last descendant of an African King reveals an ancient secret with his dying words: Deep in the jungles of Rwanda lies a hidden temple containing a great diamond which possesses the knowledge of all nations. The map to the temple has been etched onto the skins of eight drums scattered throughout the world. All eight drums must be re-united to open the temple. But beware, the drums are protected by mysterious powers, and legend has it that elemental spirits guard the treasure. Players travel through nine exotic locations, learning their history and geography, and solving challenging puzzles on their way.
