Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego's covey of cretinous creeps has created another crime. This time, they pulled their caper in China. In 1974, Chinese peasants outside the imperial city of Xi'an made an amazing discovery. While digging a well, they unearthed a tomb from the 3rd century BC, the final resting place of unified China's first emperor Qin Shi Huangdi, and the old king wasn't alone. To protect his tomb, his subjects buried him with an army of over 7,000 life-sized clay warriors. Historians says it took several hundred-thousand workers 36 years to construct the tomb and the Terracotta army. Since their discovery, many of the soldiers have been restored and returned to their posts in the large burial pit. But now, the army has evacuated. Carmen's henchrodent Wonder Rat, that self-promoting sniveling pseudo superhero, zipped through Xi'an and stole all the statues. Gumshoes, your mission is to reel in the rat, rerustle those statues, and then round up crime queen Carmen Sandiego.
