Point-and-clickRole-playing (RPG)StrategyAdventureIndie
A narrative adventure fueled by clever resource management, it tasks you with circumnavigating the globe in Jules Verne's timeframe. The core gameplay loop revolves around bartering for supplies, managing your travel budget, and choosing your route. Its emergent storytelling, driven by reactive writing and a sprawling map, ensures that no two playthroughs are alike, making this a journey worth repeating.
