In this family adventure game, each player's objective is to circumnavigate the globe and finish before the other players in a maximum of 72 days, just like Nellie Bly. Each player must pass through each of the cities she travelled through before returning to her starting point in New York, within the allotted time. The 72 days are represented by the 72 “Event” cards, so one player must reach New York before the stack of cards is exhausted, or all players lose the game.

Don't know Nellie Bly? Her real name was Elisabeth Jane Cochrane, and she was born in Pennsylvania in 1864. At the age of 16, she managed to get a job as a journalist, and did her first story in a canning factory. Thanks to her determination to uncover the truth, she quickly became an outstanding investigative journalist. She even managed to infiltrate a psychiatric asylum by posing as a madwoman, and then denounced the horrific conditions of the patients in an article that caused a scandal. And at the age of 25, inspired by Jules Verne's novel, she embarked on a round-the-world voyage which she completed in just 72 days.

This game is designed to appeal to a family audience:
  • Simple, intuitive rules;
  • Ideal for a family game night;
  • Educational content: in addition to having fun, players learn historical facts.
  • Interaction between players, strengthening family and friendships. 
It's accessible and entertaining for players of all ages, as long as they can read.

It can be played by 2 to 8 players:
  • Individually, from 2 to 4 players.
  • In teams of 2: from 5 to 8 players.
The duo mode, for example, lets you team up with a younger child who is not yet able to play independently. It also works for games between friends, generating complicity and tactical exchanges throughout the adventure.

This game offers two different play experiences:
  • Relive the extraordinary voyage of Nellie Bly, who actually circumnavigated the globe in record time in the 19th century,
  • Explore the legendary epic of Phileas Fogg, as told by Jules Verne in his famous novel.
It includes a specific board and cards, a common basic rule and a few rules specific to each game.
