In ACME's New York branch, the Chief informs agent Julia that some of the world's greatest treasures have been stolen. The Chief suspects the thefts to be the work of Carmen Sandiego, but there is lack of evidence to confirm it. Julia along with Adam Shadow are sent to find the thief and recover the treasures, before news of the theft reaches the public. Matt Forrest provides technical assistance during the mission. After many investigations around the world and putting together a digital map of Atlantis, it turns out that Carmen Sandiego had been intercepting ACME communications and planned this entire mission. Carmen Sandiego steals the map and heads to South America.

The gameplay consists of point and click elements. To progress the player must choose dialogue options during conversations, solve puzzles, make use of the digital handheld ACME computer and select a travel destination on the world map until a case is solved. When a case is solved the player gains a higher ACME rank.
