Maybe you're like me - and you first encountered this AT SCHOOL! I was hooked. The problem was, because of a shared computer lab... I never really had enough time to play this all the way to completion. I desperately wanted to capture Carmen and become the Ace Detective. Finally had my chance! BEST VERSION: (Apple IIe) It was fun to fire up this game in the Tandy Color Computer 3. I really haven't had much experience at all with the CoCo3, so this game was one of my first uses. Color palette is quite messed up, between improper composite output, and RGB throwing off some weird things - seems like palette swaps happen by accident every so often? That's the main problem with this version - color. The sound is not as good as the Apple, and gameplay is slower overall. They DID use the updated World Map screen when flying. A GOOD game on the Coco3, but still best on Apple II.
