this is me posting irl
i know the Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego theme is technically superior, but the i also love the intro to Where On Earth Is Carmen Sandiego and its Mozart-ripoff theme


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGufyFt6zQc


and also just the image of "okay yeah, Carmen probably stole one of the bigass crawler-transporters from NASA to then go steal the fuckin' Statue of Liberty" is rad as hell


EDIT: the German singers really sold the hell out of the theme:

whoa it does and it seems tedious to figure out why, though a bunch of character design and animator folks overlap with some bigger early 90s shows so maybe industry overlap from other projects and friends? either way i guess the whole show is on dvd so now i know what i need for the shelf 💃🏻

these were good. i dont think i ever was able to beat them because i couldn't save or whatever, i just remember starting over from the beginning

i also played ecoquest, which i only just now realized was made by the kings quest lady.

Until I was in high school my parents wouldn't let me have any games with shooting in them so we had like every sim game there was. SC2k, simfarm, simant, simsafari, simtown, simtower, simisle, etc. I think simfarm was my favorite
