About the game
What you do in a play session
Ready for a trip across Europe without leaving your table? In 10 Days in Europe, the goal is to be the first to assemble a continuous ten-day route, connecting countries by land, sea, or air. It's the third installment in the popular '10 Days in...' series, bringing all the fun and planning challenge we've come to expect.
At the start, each player picks up ten tiles and arranges them on their tile holder. The magic happens when you begin to draw and discard tiles. Each turn, you draw one tile—either from one of the face-up discard piles or the face-down pile—and decide whether to swap it for one of your already arranged tiles. The replaced tile (or the one you drew and didn't want to use) goes into one of the discard piles. The big catch is that you cannot rearrange your tiles once they're placed, so every swap decision is crucial!
Connections are the heart of the game. To travel by land, countries need to be adjacent on the map. For air travel, you need an airplane of the correct color between two countries of the same color. And for sea travel, a ship connects countries that share a sea border. The game is a super fun way to learn geography while trying to outsmart your friends in assembling the perfect route. With 42 countries on the map and a variety of country, ship, and airplane tiles, each game is a new adventure in planning and strategy. It's a light, fast-paced game perfect for anyone who enjoys a good spatial puzzle with an educational twist.
