Great game love playing this

Briloaint game! Bought for Christmas and played a, few times now, good interactive board game. As described

This game is very fun to play with the family.The same game on 2 different maps (each side of the board) with many ways of strategically playing.Have fun 😊

An enjoyable game and fun was had by all.

I'm a long time fan of the TV show so had to get this game. The board is double-sided with two routes, one from the first series, London to Singapore and one from the second series Mexico city to Ushuaia in Argentina. The latter being the shorter route. We all enjoyed playing both routes, even the cat! I would have liked the game to be expandible to include more recent series and different routes but don't see how this could be done without issuing a completely new game. I loved the suggestions for ways to change up play including adding taxi options and additional rules. The companion you draw can affect your travel choices en route and chance cards can help or hinder your chances and just like the show, you have a chance to work to boost funds for the final stages, although as the jobs are not country specific, it sometimes led to hilarity over the ludicrous scenarios. For instance how likely is it you could make money busking in a non first world country? I thought the game was well constructed, represents good value, maybe not as versatile as it could have been because of the lack of ability to expand play. The game was dispatched within the given time frame and was well packaged. I don't see this as a particularly educational game as the travel elements are too generalised. It is more geared towards competitive entertainment. It is fine to play with just two players or in teams which cannot be said for all games.

Game takes just the right amount of time (60-80 minutes) and has good pace. You have to plan carefully to get through each stage but ‘chance’ cards mean can you can win and lose money randomly and keeps the game fun right to the end. Has some features of the real show - such as going out of your way for a job. Very enjoyable for all ages and well made cards and pieces.
