Globetrotting

Ever thought about planning a trip around the world without leaving your table? In Globetrotting, you play as an ambitious traveler organizing three major annual itineraries. The real charm here is that you're not just marking paper: you have a physical globe in your hands! Each round, three destination cards are revealed, and everyone simultaneously chooses where they want to head next. The trick is using the built-in ruler on the globe stand to measure the actual flight distance, which dictates the cost of your adventure. If you spend too much, your budget blows, and your planning goes out the window.

The game blends the challenge of managing a personal bucket list with the need to coordinate routes with the person sitting next to you. These shared travel buddy goals add a layer of interaction: you need to meet up in the same place at the same time to score. It's a constant exercise in route optimization and luck, where every line drawn on the globe counts. Plus, there's a frantic race for global objectives, rewarding those who are most efficient at hitting their milestones before everyone else. With a light weight, it's the kind of game that flows quickly but still demands a sharp eye so you don't miss any opportunities. If you enjoy games that combine spatial strategy with a light theme and tactile components that are satisfying to handle, Globetrotting is a perfect addition to your next game night.
