![]() And don’t forget to keep your ears open to listen to what the people in the streets of any given city have to say along with the crews of the various means of transporting you from one destination to the next. Each trip takes its toll upon the noble English gentleman. You will have to visit the market in a city and buy items that will sell for greater profits elsewhere in the world or burn a few days waiting for the local bank to authorize a withdrawal.Īdditionally, Passepartout will have to manage the health and well-being of his master. ![]() Transportation costs money, as does accommodations, and you have limited funds. But you cannot spend your time waiting around your means of transport so as not to miss it. Other times a pause in tapping the right menu will cost those oh so few precious seconds that represent minutes that allow for a ship to depart leaving you waiting for the next one. Sometimes that is not a problem, as you wile away the day waiting for your connection tomorrow. Each action in each city takes up time, a few hours at the least. Fogg acts the part of the noble, yet aloof gentleman, while Passepartout does all the legwork making travel plans.Īs Passepartout, the player must manage many different resources, but the most important is time. On the other hand, the part of Passepartout has been expanded beyond that of a befuddled and bemused companion. There is no set plan established through meticulous time tables that are assured to go awry, there is no pack filled with bank notes ready to resolve any problems that may arise, and there is no general active participation in the decision making process on his part. However, the Phileas Fogg of Inkle Studio’s game, 80 Days, is not so fastidious a traveler as he is in the book. Likewise, it is the set up for Inkle Studios iOS adaptation of the novel. So is the set up for Jules Verne’s famous adventure novel. In a hasty rush, he tells Passepartout to quickly pack a suitcase, and they are off to begin their extraordinary race around the world in 80 days. The other members of the club are astonished by his declaration and consider the matter so foolhardy and made in the with such rash judgment that they are willing to allow him to retract the bet. ![]() However, one day he makes a bold declaration and bets his entire fortune against the money of various members of the Reform Club, of which he is a member, after reading a certain news article in the London Times that it is in fact possible to circumnavigate the globe in only 80 days. Being of a genial nature and a person of meticulous timing, Fogg keeps to a set schedule leaving Passepartout an easy enough job.
