All Roads start in London What are you packing in your Suitcase? The yellow Rubber Boots, a Russian Train Timetable or The Sailing hat? Everything has its Advantages. At the Beginning of the Game, however, there is not Room in the Suitcase for everything. Plus, things have to go fast, because Master Phileas Fogg has made a delicate Bet: In 80 Days he wants to make it around the World. And the Clock is ticking mercilessly! The Journey gains further Explosiveness because a War in Europe looms and mysterious Competitors take part in the Bet, which do not always behave like Gentlemen ... So in 1872 you travel Neck over Heels from London, with tens of options as far as the Route is concerned. Even when you land in Paris, many Paths arise for the ambitious Duo, with you slip into the Role of Fogg's French Servant Passepartout yourself. Not only does he have to decide a lot of things himself, but he has to take care of his Master almost maternally. Phileas loses precious life Points over Time when the Journey becomes too stressful. So you can comb it, feed it or make an effort elsewhere. Against time, money and competition Even the Right Clothes can Help. Those who rattle along a dusty Desert Road benefit from Cap, Glasses & Co. What is Interesting for Collectors is that there are sets, which usually consist of two or three corresponding Garments. If you have them completely with you, you lose less Health or get completely new Options in the Dialogues. But not a Worry: It's not about Collecting And Babysitting, but primarily about Exploration and clever Planning in a Parallel world that differs from ours with some technical And political developments – of course, that also awakens the narrative Curiosity. Add to That the economic Aspect: You start with a proud 5000 Pounds, which at the Beginning still seem like a Treasure. But the further you get, the more expensive it gets, because you can save Travel Times via Bribes or horrendous Passport costs. To replenish your Budget, you should sell the Collected in the Cities. But Beware: Every Item only scores really good Prices in two or three Cities – otherwise you have to slip it away. So Sometimes a Detour can be worth it to bag maybe a whopping £1000 instead of 10. All in all a nice Game which is but very far away from the Book Template. Who doesn't mind this strikes here. But I would wait for a Sale because in my Opinion €10 is too much.

Ive played through it 4 times now. The time/money management and strategic travelling is by itself engaging. But the misadventures and twists along the way really makes it fun. It also paints a lively picture of meeting people along the way and getting to see part of their life stories.

That's 10 bucks well spent, such a brilliant game, so rich with so much content. I can't wait to restart the game to try different routes. This is easily my favorite game on iOS and it's such a chill experience too. Five stars easy Everything Inkle touches is awesome, thanks and keep up the great work!

Ingenious game that you can play for hours. Even if you have already won, you always want to try new routes, experience new little stories or make other known decisions. Easy to use but hard to master. Geography knowledge is an advantage but not a requirement. The only downside: very good English skills are required.

Start and finish are fixed in this interactive master class masterpiece. London. The rest is in the hands of the reader (... or player? Oh, let's call him Spieser ...), the coincidence or even the many distractions that can happen to someone on a world tour. The world is a devastating version of the late 19th century, the language is great and all the characters are beautiful. No trip is like the other. For three reasons I give only five and no six stars: 1) 6 you can not give 2) The reader must be relatively firm in English 3) The view on the globe is not possible at any time in the game, the only real drawback here.
