Jorden runt på 80 dagar ("Around the World in 80 Days") is a game that simulates the Jules Verne book with the same name. This game was published by Alga and is not to be confused with other "Around the World" games with Verne connection. Especially not the Ravensburger edition Around the World in 80 Days that was published in the same year(!). Be the first to travel around the world. But make sure you have enough money for the whole trip. The journey goes over two game boards (east and west), and using several modes of transportation (trains, wagons, elephants, ships and balloons). From every city goes a few different routes to different cities using different modes of transportation, and the player needs to have a card of the mode of transportation that s/he wants to use.
