	Description Edit \| History

Players start out in London and race around the world. By skillful use of cards, each player tries to be the first to get back to London.

This is an action game without dice. Using cards representing different travel modes players try to use as many of their cards as they can. Playing all of ones cards during a turn allows one a bonus move.
