Who it's for

Groups who like efficiency puzzles with real interaction through pricing. Best at four, where the market moves fastest.

Not for you if…

You expect a Jules Verne adventure β€” the theme sits lightly on an economic engine, seventy-five minutes is optimistic with new players, and distribution outside Germany is patchy.

Vibe's take

A constant low-level squeeze β€” you always know the move you want and always wince at what it now costs. Watching the price of movement climb is half the game.

About this game

Phileas Fogg managed the trip in eighty days, so you set out to beat him. You travel the globe, buy equipment and fill a travel diary β€” but every action gets more expensive the more often the table uses it.

Action prices rise with use, reset each periodTravel diary as the main scoring trackFive periods, then back to London
