Inspired by Jules Verne’s novel, Around the World in 80 Days
The bet is on: Phileas Fogg, british gentleman, is to make it around the world in 80 days.
Jean Passepartout, his French servant, is going with him. But Fix, a police inspector, has to keep close track of the travellers, as they are suspected to be the thiefs of the Bank of England.
Will Fogg win the bet? Help him surmont the obstacles!
A THRILLING ADVENTURE:
Phileas Fogg’s journey is not that easy. To win the bet, you will have to be courageous, to carefully observe things around you and to be clever!
Elude Fix’ traps, save an Indian widow, find your way in the jungle, and during longer trips, prove your whist opponents that cards don’t have any secrets for you!
USEFUL HINTS:
Use the Hint: a shiny halo helps you to find one of the objects.
No more hints? Not enough time? Find the bonus stars hidden in the scenes to get more hints or time!
MAGNIFICIENT SETS:
Discover incredible sceneries : London, Suez, Bombay, Calcutta, Hong Kong, Yokohama, San Francisco… And use different transportation means, sometimes very surprising : catch a train, go aboard a ship, travel on the back of an elephant!
CONTENT:
- 22 places to visit
- Mini-games: maze, cards games
- Search of objects (list, identical objects)
- Help: zoom on selected screens, limited number of reloading hints, bonus stars
- Magnificent sets: high resolution images
- Retina Display

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We love this game! To go through the whole story we bought the full version, but it was worth it! Great visuals and mini-games to go through the chapters-really fun.
After purchasing the full version of this app we downloaded it to a new device and tried to restore our purchase. Connect to server was all that appeared on the screen and after an hour, re-downloading the app, resetting our device and verifying that we did in fact pay for the extended version, it still wont restore our purchase.
We can't get past the first screen. The item that we need to click on is beyond the edge of the screen. Please either correct this bug or return what we paid for the app.
Hold iPad with both hands. Keep right hand still and move left away from your body. It will pivot your view and let you see more of the room. Watch will come into view.
Same problem as Jim583 and kodiakak. How take watch.
Same problem as Kodiakak. Has not been addressed.
We were sailing along enjoying the game (it's very simple to play) when suddenly in chapter 2 we were told to pick up a stamp. It will not respond. We're very disappointed. We've read online this has happened often. We think the problem should have been fixed before it was continued to be sold. And we paid $4.99. According to what we're reading, the game was only $.99 at one time. We feel like we've been completely ripped off. VERY disappointed.
We love hidden object games, but in the very first level of this one, the "watch" is evidently off the screen to the right on our ipad. The clue circles a point to the right, but there is no way to access it. In looking at a screen shot online, it is clear that we're not seeing the full picture. When we zoom, we see the same area, no more. Please update this so that we can get past the first level and ill probably buy the game! Thanks.
We really enjoy this game! We played it all the time. We are stck in India. We can not pick up the stamp. The game is frozen. Please fix so we can keep playing.
We have reached the stamp in the second chapter and it will not recognize that we are touching it so we can continue with the game….please fix this or give us our money back.
An object we need to find – and we uses a hint – is off-screen. No way we can nab it and move on. So…moving on to another game. Too bad, too…looks like fun.
Purchased the full version of this game and it does not work. What a rip off. Hopefully the makers will make some corrections. If not, do not purchase.
It doesn't allow the user to touch the final object on the list. We deleted it.
It is stupid to offer a free version that doesn't work. We agree with other reviewers; the instructions describe a map and scrolling, but they doesn't exist; the first scene requires you to click on a watch to continue and the hint indicates an area on the side that you can't reach, so you're can't click it and you're stuck. Bad programming; the designers and Apple should be ashamed to market it; and we'll never buy an app from this company in the future. Hitting them in the pocketbook may wake them up to the fact that consumers are tired of the mediocrity they're trying to sell us; we can fight back. It is a terrible game and we're deleting it.
We could not tap on the watch in the first scene, either. Game deleted.
You cannot tap, hold and scroll to utilize the map as stated. Game is very frustrating and we deleted after the first scene. Some objects such as the watch are not easily accessible. Graphics are mediocre at best.
