It's hard to call 80 Days a "game" in the normal sense of the word; it's much closer to an "illustrated interactive novel" or a "digital choose-your-own adventure book." It's a lot like reading The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle if author Hugh Lofting stopped every few paragraphs to ask you what you'd like protagonist Tommy Stubbins to say next. It's an interesting concept for sure and a fantastic format for mobile platforms, but the game does lack variety in a few ways that could have made it a classic.
