About this board game

Unlock! Mythic Adventures: Around the world in 80 minutes is a cooperative card game for 1–6 players, with play lasting around 95 minutes. Inspired by escape rooms, it challenges your group to search scenes, combine objects, and solve riddles together.

In this adventure, Phileas Fogg has wagered with gentlemen from the Reform Club that he can travel around the world in 80 days. With Passepartout at his side, he must hurry: the world awaits his masterstroke. Take on this global journey while seated at the table, using cards and a companion app to guide your play.

The game’s simple system makes every discovery part of the puzzle. As you explore, you can:

  • Search illustrated scenes for useful information.
  • Combine objects to uncover new possibilities.
  • Solve riddles and enter codes as your adventure unfolds.

The free Unlock! companion application can provide clues, check codes, and monitor the time remaining. Download it from the App Store or Google Play before playing; once downloaded, an internet connection is not required during the game.

A ten-card tutorial is included to teach you how to play without requiring you to read the rules first. This makes it easy to begin exploring the adventure and learning the core mechanisms as a group.

Released in 2023, Unlock! Mythic Adventures: Around the world in 80 minutes combines cooperative investigation, card-based discovery, and timed puzzle-solving in a compact tabletop escape-room experience.
