History VideoGame / EightyDays

* DevelopersForesight: Fogg can make remarks about the items that Passepartout buys. For example, if the player buys another Smith & Weston when you already have one in your luggage, he'll ask "How many guns do we need?"

''80 Days'' is an interactive fiction game loosely based on Jules Verne's ''Literature/AroundTheWorldInEightyDays''. Published by Inkle and written by Meg Jayanth, it was originally released in 2014 on [[IOSGames iOS]] and [[AndroidGames Android]] only, but the game was ported to PC in 2015 along with a major update and is now available on UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} and other vendors.

* AdaptationalBadass: Aodha, who goes from being a would-be victim of sati in the original to a mercenary leader.

* AlternateHistory: While the setting is a fairly recognizable mirror of the real world, the presence of the Artificers' Guild and the rise of Artifice has created different balances of power and different empires and resistances to empire.
* AndTheAdventureContinues: Upon returning to London, Passepartout will joke about another expedition but will be completely shut down by Fogg.
** In some endings, Passepartout can actually leave his master's service to have adventures of his own .

* ApocalypticLog: [[spoiler: If the North Pole route goes badly, Passepartout's journal can become this.]]

* [[BitheWay Bi the Way]]: Passepartout can pursue both female and male love interests.

* TheCameo: [[Literature/JourneyToTheCenterOfTheEarth Otto Lidenbrock]], [[TwentyThousandLeaguesUnderTheSea Captain Nemo]] or even Jules Verne, himself may appear during the course of the game.

* CityofWeirdos: Zurich seems to be one, with a touch of isolationism and xenophobia.

* CoolTrain: Trains that travel underwater, trains that are actually proto-MagLev; there are plenty of trains to be found.

* DisguisedInDrag: In Istanbul, through a complicated series of events Passepartout may find himself in the silks of a harem girl. After his escapade, however, he may choose to remain in the silks.

* [[GameWithinaGame Game Within a Game]]: With the update, you can play poker with a millionaire. There are also dominoes, playing cards, and dice you can buy which the characters play in-game (though there's no special minigame for those).

* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler:the Black Rose is revealed to be Fogg's bastard daughter with the Reform Club's cook.]]
* MadScientist: [[spoiler:El Talib seems like one.]] Or at least, mildly Paranoid Scientist.

* NotStayingForBreakfast: In Vitti Jokinen's romance route, [[spoiler:he will have fled due to a combination of trauma and guilt over the Ice Walker's crash the morning after, only to be found right before the end of the game. After their reunion, Passepartout can even pull this on Vitti]] Many other of Passepartout's romantic liaisons end like this, due to the transitory nature of travel.

* SelfImposedChallenge: Of sorts. A high ranking Artificer could easily round the world in far fewer than eighty days. But the Guild is impressed by Fogg's efforts to do so using only transportation available to normal people.

* ShippingTorpedo: Fogg is not too thrilled about his valet pursuing ''particular friendships'' while in his service. Passepartout can attempt to be this if he is suspicious of those with romantic intentions towards his master.

* {{Steam Punk}}: A rare example that examines the rise of such technologies outside of Europe.

* {{Take Your Time}}: Lampshaded; while Fogg is very much filled with urgency about the term of his wager, Passepartout can arrange a meandering route and choose to stay in cities for as long as he likes, though the clock is always ticking.
* {{Timed Mission}}: Very obliquely; though the clock is always there to tell the player how much time has passed, the game does not end when eighty days have passed, as Fogg and Passepartout still must return to London.

* {{Victorian London}}: Where the game begins and [[spoiler:usually]] ends.
* VideoGameCaringPotential: Passepartout can rescue men and women slated for execution, give money to beggars, smooth the course of love for others, and much more.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Passepartout can refuse to help an injured submariner, can mock those he comes across in his travels, and can even betray a living soul.

** In some endings, Passepartout can actually leave his master's service to have adventures of his own

* ClockDiscrepancy: Lampshaded. In the original novel, Fogg seems to have lost his bet by being a day late, but soon finds out that the travelers have crossed the International Date Line and effectively gained a day. Here, Fogg knows to adjust his clock when the line is crosseed and Passepartout remarks that there is no way such an organized man would miss such a detail.

* TheBritishEmpire: Examined when traveling across British-controlled/influenced lands, though a substantial amount of traveling can be done outside the bounds of the British Empire, unlike in the novel.

* Magitek: Unlike the steam and metal automatons created by members of other nations, Haitian machines are made from bone and wood and seem to run on blood and Voodoo.

''80 Days'' is an interactive fiction game loosely based on Jules Verne's [[Literature/AroundTheWorldInEightyDays Around the World in 80 Days]]. Published by Inkle and written by Meg Jayanth, it was originally released in 2014 on iOS and Android only, but the game was ported to PC in 2015 along with a major update and is now available on Steam and other vendors.

The year is 1872, and Phileas Fogg has made a wager that he can circumnavigate the world in eighty days. The player takes the role of his French valet Passepartout in the narrative, and it is his job to arrange travel, purchase and sell items to manage their finances, and ensure the general health and happiness of his master Fogg.

The game is set in an alternate history steampunk version of Earth vastly de-centered from Europe, and does not shy away from the heavier issues such as colonialism, imperialism, and technological progress vs. traditional culture, all while preserving the feel of an adventure narrative. There are mechanical camels and elephants, steamships and airships, flying machines powered by the life-forces of actual birds and still more technological wonders to travel upon.

* DamselinDistress: Inverted, as the original damsel in distress in the book (Aodha) now puts Fogg as Passepartout in distress.

* ClockDiscrepancy: Lampshaded, as Fogg knows to adjust his clock when the International Date Line is crosseed and Passepartout remarks that there is no way such an organized man would miss such a detail.

* ChekovsGun: [[spoiler:The photograph Quispe takes in Bogota for the Goland romance.]]

* OpiumDem: Passepartout will encounter these in China. As in the novel, Inspector Fix may lure him to one in Hong Kong, though this is avoidable.

* EmergencyCargoDump: [spoiler:On the route to the moon, Passepartout is ejected from the rocket in order for it to achieve escape velocity. Ironically, he is inferred to be the only survivor due to this.]

* IChooseToStay: The "Love in the Ice" achievement [spoiler:on Vitti Jokinen's romance path, if Passepartout decides to stay with him in Nanortalik and abandon Fogg.]

* The Bet: True to the original novel, Fogg's wager with the Reform Club drives the narrative.

* Cameo: [[Literature/JourneyToTheCenterOfTheEarth Otto Lidenbrock]] or even [[TwentyThousandLeaguesUnderTheSea Captain Nemo]] may appear during the course of the game.

* ChekovsGun: [spoiler: The photograph Quispe takes in Bogota for the Goland romance.]

* ChekovsGun: [spoiler:The photograph Quispe takes in Bogota for the Goland romance.]

* [[GameWithinaGame]]: With the update, you can play poker with a millionaire. There are also dominoes, playing cards, and dice you can buy which the characters play in-game (though there's no special minigame for those).

* GentlemanAdventurer: Fogg, who at one point even says that his ancestors worked so he wouldn't have to.

* GameWithinaGame: With the update, you can play poker with a millionaire. There are also dominoes, playing cards, and dice you can buy which the characters play in-game (though there's no special minigame for those).

* BitheWay: Passepartout can pursue both female and male love interests.

* {{Take Your Time}}: Evoked in an interesting way; while Fogg is very much filled with urgency about the term of his wager, Passepartout can arrange a meandering route and choose to stay in cities for as long as he likes, though the clock is always ticking.

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Passepartout can refuse to help an injured submariner, can mock those he comes across in his travels, and can

* BritishStuffiness:

* {{The Bet}}: True to the original novel, Fogg's wager with the Reform Club drives the narrative.
* {{Multiple Endings}}: By the end of the game, Fogg may have won or lost his wager, [[spoiler:return to London alone, or even die on his travels.]]
* {{Sliding Scale Of Adaptation Modification}}: Falls between a 2 and 1 on the scale, in a very intentional manner.
