And I thought the other games in the series were short!
After the abduction of the Statue of Liberty and Big Ben, as well as the subsequent arrests of two V.I.L.E. criminals, you'd think the V.I.L.E. crew would lay low for a while. Instead, they've gotten more ambitious than ever, stealing the St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow as well as the pyramids straight out of Egypt.

This time Big Ben is missing.
The Big Ben Burglary is the second case in the ongoing episodic production of Carmen Sandiego Adventures in Math.

While on the short side, this adventure in math will provide some reasonably challenging math-based puzzles for the proper age group as well as a cursory glance at some world geography.

He mentioned that Sony had asked the crew at Eat Sleep Play to look into coding for it but nothing had been decided. Jaffe went on to say as follows:
