This game is very fun despite its issues. I'm going to jump straight into pros and cons.Pros:It's set up extremely close to Trivial Pursuit, with enough differences that it's legally distinct. Instead of collecting 6 pie pieces from specific spots on the board, you collect 4 tokens, which require 2 cards to obtain, which you gain by answering questions correctly. That means 8 correct answers, 2 in each category, from any spot on the board, will get you the tokens. More questions required, but more spaces that count toward that requirement. It's very easy to make up your own house rules to make the game flow more smoothly, better resemble other trivia games, or just make more sense. The board is very fun, with lots of world sites pictured, not just on the board, but on the cards as well. The tokens are quite nice, something tangible to collect, and having to trade cards in for them is a nice touch. Actually you could raise the number of cards required for trade really easily, or even add another layer about trading cards with opponents. That step adds a lot of versatility.Cons:With only 4 categories and a standard 6-sided die, it's impossible to avoid eventually being on a spot where you'll land on the same category no matter which way you go. Honestly, this could be considered neutral instead of a con because it could be seen as a balancing move, but it's just irritating enough that it becomes a con. If I already have an Architectural token, but I'm right behind the other players in my progress, I don't want to be caught in a position where I can only answer another Architectural question. That reduces the fun of the game. The colors are subdued enough that they can blend into each other under the right lighting. Green, blue, and purple are all dark and subdued enough that it becomes a sub-game just telling them apart. They need to be a little more vibrant and a little more distinct. Fortunately, the category words at the bottom of each space help compensate for that, but they don't make up for it. This next one is a nitpick more than anything because it's easy to fix, but the Architectural tokens are golden broken pillars, while the Political tokens are white Roman pillar facades, and yet the Architectural category is white while the Political category is purple. The tokens for the other two categories match colors, so it makes more sense to make the white tokens be Architectural and the gold tokens be Political. In fact, if the Political category's color was turned into dark gold, it would help differentiate colors on the board a lot more easily. A lot of the questions are a bit strange in nature, and even more are strangely worded. English isn't the first language of the question writers, and if it is, that only makes it worse. As an example, far too many questions want you to find which of the three options do NOT fit the question, and far too many are punctuated as questions when they're actually sentence fragments. "The Panama Canal has NOT been blocked by?" That's an example, and I call this a question in the negative, or an inverted question, because it wants you to find the odd one out. It's also a non-question, needing only a slight reword or a blank space to make sense. I don't think that's how that specific question is worded, but there are plenty of other questions that have been worded that way. Just make the questions about which option fits the question. A small handful of questions in the negative are fine, but trivia games do much better when they have questions in the positive. They're more engaging. Also reword the questions to be questions, or else utilize blank spaces.Verdict:We had tons of fun playing this. We implemented house rules to switch the tokens to their matching colors, which made management easier, settled on no time limit to answer (it's how we usually do trivia games unless there's a reason not to), a few other things, and lastly, we spent a lot of time laughing at the questions before answering them. The last one didn't make the game more fun, but it did give us something else to do. I recommend getting this, just realize it's not a fully polished product like Trivial Pursuit, which it's obviously inspired by.

We homeschool our kids and try to make school as fun as possible. Games make learning so much more fun and when you can do a fun learning game in place of reading your history curriculum that is awesome! This game has SO many super cool facts to learn and my kids love the pictures too!We have all loved playing this game so far. It is set up for age 8+ but younger ones can very easily play it too with a little bit of help. It is pretty easy to mostly play the game how its set up to be played but adjust for the age of kids that are playing. We have a couple of younger kids that aren't the best readers so we can adjust how we play to incorporate them in our game too.There are SO many random facts that they have learned through playing this game over the last month or so. I would highly suggest this game to every homeschool family out there and even public schoolers. It is a great learning tool!!

Good: the board artwork is nice and the gameplay is straightforward and easy to follow. It took us less than 30 seconds to learn the rules and feel confident we were playing it correctly.Less than good: the colors can be difficult to differentiate on the spaces. I'm color blind and I'm used to having this problem with some games, but my wife and kids were having the same issue with this game board. A number of times there was a debate about what color a piece had landed on (and consequently which category). Also, the fact that the tokens don't match with the colors of their categories made it difficult to remember which token was associated with which category. Some of the questions were ridiculously hard. I'm relatively good at trivia, but was getting stumped by questions about locations that I have personally visited many times. Except for the occasional easy question, my teen children were blindly guessing on most questions as they had no idea what the answer could be.If you are really into geography, this may be an interesting game for you to try. We played it a night after playing Hexaquest (another trivia game) and that other game was much more fun for us as a family than this one.

I got this for my wife (and myself lol) as between the two of us, we have visited over 150 countries. 96 for me, 62 for my wife. Given our travel experience, we are usually pretty adept at getting geography/travel questions on Jeopardy or other games. But some of these questions, even with multiple choice, were quite challenging and we definitely learned a few things...even about places we've already traveled to and thought we were 'experts'.The game board and cards are beautifully design and colorful. As travel enthusiasts, we could just look at the cards and game board and be entertained! It is great how the questions are divided amongst different subjects: natural, religious, architectural, and political. Pretty creative grouping and the game overall is well thought out.

This is an easy-to-understand trivia game concept. You choose your color of plane and travel the world collecting trinkets by answering questions in four categories: political, architecture, religion, and natural. Each question is multiple choice with three possible answers. Some of the questions were relatively easy but the majority were very difficult! At least with multiple choice you have a 1 in 3 chance of getting it right! The board is very large and the cards are plentiful and nice quality. We did find one card that I believe had the wrong answer listed - I looked it up to verify. Also, for the price I wish the plane game pieces were a bit higher quality. Still, it is a fun trivia game that will remain in our game night rotation.
