  • Summary: In 1899, Oliver Lavisheart, young adventurous Englishman, accepts to help his uncle Mathew to win a bet: going around the world in 80 days or less to collect proof that the wacky uncle has created 4 major inventions in 4 different cities all around the world. Oliver follows Phileas Fogg's tracks through Egypt, India, Japan, and finally to America. He has only 80 days, or his uncle will lose his bet and will be ruined. For this trip you will become Oliver, discover your uncle's fantastic talents, his adventurous life and his secrets. You will also learn a lot about yourself, the truth about your family and the true nature of this incredible bet. As the game progresses you will help a strange German Archeologist, rescue a distressed - not overly bright actress from Bollywood, organize a SM contest, win an elephant race, drive the biggest airship ever, find a way to make the Scottish tartan the coolest street wear worldwide, fool a shogun's samurai, burn your own boat to go faster, avoid the traps of inspector Fix's nasty son, get into disguise, bribe, steal.

    There are some frustrations with saves and puzzle implementation, but the game does have solid entertainment value.

    You'll find a lot of personality (and not a little humor) as you make your way through the game but the only thing that's really being challenged here is you patience.

    A serviceable adventure game that does a few things new but is unlikely to tide anyone over or bring back renown to the adventure genre.

    The New York Times review is right on the money. It could have been a great game, but the technical problems ruin it.

    While this has some fun elements and nice graphics, the humor is generally poor and borders on sexism and racial stereotyping. Add to this the various bugs, including crashing to the desktop, and the dire save strategy, and the game is hard to recommend.… Expand
