## Description

80 Days is a BAFTA-nominated interactive fiction that lets you race around the world using airships, trains, boats, camels, and more. With a half‑million word script by Meg Jayanth, stunning art by Jaume Illustration, original music by Laurence Chapman, and built on the ink engine behind Sorcery!, this is a branching storytelling experience you control.

Play as Passepartout, balance your master's health, finances, and the relentless clock, and choose your path city by city. Race others via a networked feed, share journeys, and load routes from friends to compete head‑to‑head. No in‑app purchases, and every playthrough offers a fresh adventure as you discover murder, romance, rebellion, and intrigue across 150 cities around the world.

## Review summary

Overall, reviews celebrate 80 Days for its rich writing, atmospheric visuals, and replayable branching journeys, with a travelogue feel that rewards exploration and offers offline play at a fair price. The main recurring drawbacks are UI scaling and visibility issues on newer iPhone/iPad models, which can render key HUD elements unreadable, plus occasional startup/compatibility glitches on certain devices. A subset of players also view the experience as narrative-focused rather than a traditional game, which shades how some perceive value.

### Pros

- Outstanding writing, dialogue, and branching narrative that adapts to your choices.
- Stunning visuals, art direction, and immersive sound design that bring a steampunk Victorian world to life.
- High replay value with many routes and outcomes, encouraging experimentation and long-term play.
- No network dependency and strong value for money, making it great for travel and offline play.

### Cons

- UI and HUD elements (HP indicator and corner info) frequently get cut off on newer devices, making crucial information unreadable.
- Startup and compatibility issues on some devices (crashes or getting stuck at the title screen) prevent play on certain hardware.
- Perceived as more interactive fiction than a traditional game, with some players feeling the format doesn’t justify the price.
