Leave a Review 80 Days
Please make a sequel 🙏
This game was created practically ages ago and I have never got bored on playing this game over and over and over again. The game is so soothing and simple yet it serves as a more lively alternative to literature due to its well-made gameplay. If inkle could make a sequel with a new storyline, I’m sure that game will become a hit!Show lessApple User DH
Needs an update.
This game is unplayable on any of the new iPhone 12. As there are cut off corners, which hides vital information.Heroism777
So-so...
I quite enjoyed the one game I’ve played, and managed the journey in 74 days. Gameplay was about 2 hours. I didn’t really have to think too hard about the choices I had to make throughout the game - the game would have taken longer if I had. But now I’m not really interested in doing it again to see if I can complete it any quicker, so it will be deleted after this review.Show lessMollydoly
Incredible game
Probably one of the best games I have played and I have been playing it on and off since it came out. There are so many variables you can go through as you trek across the globe. I love geography so that with a great plot however you choose to move is so much funStantoner
Great Journey
This is excellent fun, more really than a game. Very educational. You may want to hurry to get back under 80 days early on and that’s fine, but even if you go over it’s a blast to go through all sorts of adventures and scrapes. Just keep in mind you can start all over again when you return. Also, some southern routes I thought there was no way to make it back in time but I did and had all sorts of wild things happen along the way including shipwrecks and surviving a shooting! Still made it back on that one before 80 days. Last trip I didn’t make it back until Day 111 but it was the most fun ever, including the Nautilus and mermaids! Tip on North Pole if you want to survive, do everything, make friends with everyone or you won’t make it. So don’t be afraid to try new routes, meet new people, explore and have fun along the way. Endlessly playable. 5 stars.Show lessCeeStor
Highly recommendable
This game has a simple concept, travel around the world within 80 days. But it is so much more than that. It is a hectic race against time to get around the world. There are many different routes to take it and so much story behind it all. Can’t recommend this enough for the price it is.Spitfire13554
Very good. Better than all Fortnite crap
Astonishingly beautiful description of cities. Very formal, but also excellent, wording.
I have one suggestion to make. Perhaps you could make other games like this; for example, you could make another version of the game, based on the same storyline but set in, say, the 1970s, with modern-day versions of Fogg and Passepartout. It would be cool to have the possibility of travelling into space.
I achieved a time of 76 days on my FIRST try. My fastest time is now 46 or 56 days. I am trying to complete the journey in 20 days or even less (that is my goal)!
Hope you use your talent to make more games like this.
Kind regards,

P.s: Could you make it so that the Icewalker isn’t rigged to break down; I end up losing 2 weeks of travel, and I find that the journey could be achieved in 20 something days if it would just reach the North Pole, where it is only a 2-3 day wait until Fogg finds a couple of airships. I love this game! Keep going guys!!Show lessBaldis Schoolhouse
Great Story-based RPG, Strategy, and Resource Management Game
Pros:
- Easter eggs and plot twists galore
- Factual landmarks (Was pleasantly surprised by the game's accurate depiction of faraway lands when I visited Istanbul and Marrakech for myself last year) make for great travel planning IRL
- Thought-provoking dialogue and humanism, eerie dictatorships and the anarchy of revolution. I especially loved the piece on the untold stories of people that "progress" leaves behind.
- Still can't tell if I love or hate the Artificers Guild, but the politics are intriguing and got to love the explosives
- Making money from great sales
- Bribery through costume to get some cheap tickets
Cons:
- Time passes too quickly to be able to effectively buy or sell before morning departures, forcing you to stay the night
- Some options become less relevant later in the game, like socializing at the hotel
- Starting items are pretty random
- No bonus points for having your boss like you
- If you want to "win" and take the most efficient route you miss out on cool stories :(
- Hard to keep track of the politics and "quests"
Protips:
If you selected wrong on one of the text selections, close out of the app and relaunch to reset your choices for the current scene. Only works if you haven't finished the scene.
Also, stay away from Muscat.Show lessluciddelerium
Whatever happened to Inkle?
With its 750,000 word narrative and the immense fun I had in my first game, I was compelled to play this game multiple times. The original story by Verne provided the ideal source material for this exceedingly well-written adventure game. My only gripe is now what? We want more. Whatever happened to Inkle and the amazing writer? There are plenty of other great adventure books out there from which more story-driven adventures could be created. You’d think that given this game’s extraordinary success and popularity that it’d be a cash cow ... nudge-nudge, wink-wink!Show lessears99
A charming gem
For the price of this app, I’ve gotten more than enough value for it. After such a long time, I’m still getting new experiences and surprises. You start with a meager suitcase and rush off to race around the world in 80 days. But the journey will be nothing that you expect.
The game play is simple. It’s a choose your own adventure with some inventory management, time management, area exploration, and keeping Fogg alive and well. You can buy and sell curio items for profits. You can buy items to make the travel less strenuous. You can buy items that allow conversation during travel longer and more fruitful. Managing your inventory is a large part of a successful journey.
For downsides, I wish the app had more documentation. You gain statuses like “steadfast” or “well mannered” but there’s no indication of how these affect gameplay. To me, they’re 100% useless as I have no idea of why I would want them or what it does. Maybe it opens new choices? Who knows.
For upsides, the adventures are epic. But I enjoy the fact that you can find romance with a man or a woman, making it more LGBT friendly. Also, it seems that your character has African decent, and it certain areas race is taken seriously. These touches really made me happy.
You won’t be disappointed if you buy this app. My suggestion is to take the strangest routes, try to always hit different cities, and have an adventure!Show lessarkibet
