If you have not heard of 80 Days or Overboard!, you can find the official overview below:
80 Days
Inspired by Jules Verne’s renowned novel, join Phileas Fogg and his loyal servant Passepartout as they race around the world against a clock that never stops. Explore the entire globe to find the fastest route, or the strangest stories…
Barges, trains, airships and mechanical camels are ready to whisk you away. Take the newly-built Orient Express from Paris to Istanbul, then hop on a hot-air balloon for a 3-day journey to Beirut. Will you board a passenger ferry bound for Alexandria or an airship to Mesopotamia, or perhaps ride an ingenious solar-car down the old road to Baghdad through the ruins of an ancient Sumerian city…?
Taking its literary roots and exploding them across the entire world, 80 Days weaves a compelling narrative with deep characters and interactions. Branching paths allow for near limitless possible story developments and endings. Every new playthrough is a completely new experience and there is always more to discover.
Will you make it back to London in time? With hundreds of routes and cities to explore and thousands of people to meet, unique adventures, hidden corners and secrets abound in this multi-award-winning masterpiece of interactive fiction.
