He is often shown to be speaking to the user from an exotic location in which he is presumably hunting for clues.Ĭhase was one of Carmen Sandiego's partners when she was at ACME.
Chase also informs the user of clues he's found throughout the course of the game. However, whereas he appears "in person" in Carmen Sandiego's Think Quick Challenge, he communicates with the user electronically in the other two games. It is made clear that he is not actually the Chief since in Carmen Sandiego Word Detective and Carmen Sandiego Math Detective the user occasionally receives messages from an unseen Chief. In all three of these games, Chase fulfills the role typically held by the Chief in Carmen Sandiego products in sending the user off on missions and such. He is voiced by Pat Fraley and his last name is pronounced "dev-in-no." Chase DevineauxĬhase Devineaux is featured in Carmen Sandiego Word Detective, Carmen Sandiego Math Detective and Carmen Sandiego's Think Quick Challenge. They were voiced by Scott Menville and Jennifer Hale respectively. Zack and Ivy were the teenage protagonists of Where on Earth Is Carmen Sandiego?.

No Chief character appears in Carmen Sandiego's Think Quick Challenge, Carmen Sandiego Word Detective and Carmen Sandiego Math Detective. In the original first few computer games "the Chief" was a mysterious male figure hidden in the shadows who had very little personality or role. The character is never given a name beyond that title. The leader of ACME is called "The Chief", though the nature of the character varies considerably in different media. An ACME training academy of some kind is often stated or alluded to exist, presumably located at its San Francisco headquarters. Additionally, ACME usually has numerous field offices around the globe. Principally, ACME trains and employs agents who act as detectives, spies, and double agents against V.I.L.E.Īlthough the structure of ACME Headquarters varies, it is always located in San Francisco, often being depicted as well within view of San Franciscan landmarks such as the Transamerica Pyramid and the Golden Gate Bridge. The exact nature of the organization is never explained, but it appears to be concerned mainly with tracking down and capturing international criminals. The ACME Detective Agency or ACME Crimenet (changed to ACME Timenet in Where in Time Is Carmen Sandiego?) is the organization that the user or protagonists always work for.
