Description
You control the French Private Eye Pierre Touche. Navigate the city streets, parks, secret passages, dead-ends and one-ways in search of the ringleader, Henri Le Fiend and his gang. You also need to find evidence and stolen goods that are scattered about. There are five cases, complete each case before its statute of limitations expires.

Actions
PrivateEye has the action space Discrete(18) with the table below lists the meaning of each action's meanings.
As PrivateEye uses the full set of actions then specifying full_action_space=True will not modify the action space of the environment if passed to gymnasium.make.

Observations
Atari environment have two possible observation types, the observation space is listed below. See variants section for the type of observation used by each environment id.
obs_type="rgb" -> observation_space=Box(0, 255, (210, 160, 3), np.uint8)obs_type="ram" -> observation_space=Box(0, 255, (128,), np.uint8)
Additionally, obs_type="grayscale" cause the environment return a grayscale version of the rgb array for observations with the observation space being Box(0, 255, (210, 160), np.uint8)
Rewards
You score points for completing your tasks like gathering evidence, nabbing questionable characters or closing cases etc. You lose points if you get hit or if your auto is on a pothole. For a more detailed documentation, see the AtariAge page.

Version History
A thorough discussion of the intricate differences between the versions and configurations can be found in the general article on Atari environments.
- v5: Stickiness was added back and stochastic frameskipping was removed. The environments are now in the "ALE" namespace.
- v4: Stickiness of actions was removed
- v0: Initial versions release
