Added DiffLines:

* TemptingFate: During Carmen's video calls to you mentioned below and even when her own WantedPoster is completed, Carmen [[SmugSnake smugly boasts about how she can never be caught]]. As it turns out, she can be caught in exactly the same way as every one of her flunkies, rendering all of her earlier overconfidence rather hollow.
* TheComputerShallTauntYou: After catching every other crook in the game, Carmen will make a video call to the player backhandedly congragulating them for doing so but stating that she's still beyond the player's capability to capture. This feature is first used here and would be carried over into the 1996 ''Where in the World'' and ''Where in the USA'', as well as ''The Great Chase Through Time'' and some missions in ''Word Detective'' and ''Math Detective.''
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
The country in the game is South Korea, not North Korea.


* {{Bowdlerization}}: When it comes to UsefulNotes/NorthKorea? It's... quite tame compared to what the country is actually like.



* EveryoneHasStandards: Even UsefulNotes/NorthKorea will let an ACME detective in or ask them for help.

Added DiffLines:

* GameBreakingBug: If, after completing the game the first time, you recapture Carmen in a random case, she will be considered arrested and held in jail for a period of time until in the midst of another random case, the Chief will notify you that she and all the other crooks you caught have broken out of prison again. In that time between Carmen's capture and her escape, it's possible to reach a crook you're pursuing without having completed their WantedPoster first. In that event, the game calls for the ladder the crook climbs to take them up to Carmen's V.I.L.E helicopter and she flies them away to freedom. But obviously, ''this logically could not happen if Carmen is currently behind bars.'' So instead of playing the sequence with Carmen and the crook getting away, the game crashes and you are notified of an error.
