80 Days

Third time is the charm


Game no: 127
Genre: Adventure 
Platform: iOS 
Duration: 4 days (+13 days for next game)

What is it about
- Phinieus Fogg and his trusty valet Passportou have to travel the world in 80 days to win £20000.

Gaming consists of
- Reading
- Buying and selling
- Solving murders, fighting bad guys (all text based)
- Budgeting 
- Finding the best route around the world

What's good:
- The storyline is long and interesting 
- Buying stuff from one country that is cheap and selling it for 2000% profit
- Travelling by steam car, train, airship, rocket, horse (don't travel using horses), ferry, boat, a ship with legs 

What's bad:
- Mr Fogg needs to be taken care like 24/7. Travelling to harsh condition will cause his health to deteriorate
- The reading. It's long winded with branching paths. Getting the right paths will get you bonuses, the wrong will just lose more money
- Borrowing from the bank and sleeping at the hotel will lose 1 day
- Long distance Travelling... Anything can happen ( Mr Fogg died once )
