Backpacker

Published 2004

Travel the continents of the world taking photos in different countries. To win you must outwit your opponents to be the player who has returned home with the most photos. Like real traveling, you will constantly be faced with choices, so you'll need to play the right card at the right time. Visit one or many continents, enjoy bonus events, get good and bad advice, avoid getting sick or missing your plane. You may even be forced to change your plans or seek assistance from your fellow backpackers. You'll need careful planning, patience and a bit of luck to win. Things don't always run smoothly when backpacking and you will have to cope with problems, delays and events, some of which may be caused by other travelers.
