Carmen Sandiego in Japan – Hannin Sagashite Nihon Zenkoku (Japanese: カルメン サンディエゴ イン ジャパン) is a 1989 spin-off[2] entry in the Carmen Sandiego franchise. It was developed and published by Broderbund Japan on two floppy disks for the NEC PC-9801 Series 525in.[3][4] The title functions as both an adventure game where players chase and capture Carmen, and an educational game where players learn about geography and history of Japan.[5] The title was released on November 21, 1989,[1] one of the few titles released under the Broderbund Japan brand that year alongside tabletop Shufflepuck Café (June 11) and shooter Wings of Fury (September).[1]
