Very influential, and his work stands up far better than H.G. Wells'. Nemo is a great character
>>8802736
Lovely.

Boring and scientifically inaccurate shit. Relies heavily on retarded characters to drive the plot. Wells is better.

Not bad, not one of the greats either. Characters are a bit retarded from time to time. Above average - good.
He's fun, his passage with the MC hopelessly floundering in in the darkness in the bowels of the Earth really stuck out to me.
But that said, Wells is better, The Time Machine is the GOAT and The Invisible Man makes for some great coemdy
The video game "80 Days" is actually better than "Around the World in 80 Days"

What type of game is it?
>>8806618
It's a narrative-based game written in the style of "Around the World in 80 Days" with minimal strategic elements that are present enough to be engaging without taking over the experience. You play from the perspective of Passpartout, making travel arrangements for and taking care of Monsieur Fogg. Many of the decisions you make require careful consideration and roleplaying along these lines. This description really doesn't do it justice, but it's probably the most fun I've had playing a video game. Also you can take all sorts of different routes so it's very replayable. 10/10 game would recommend.

I second this, had some of the best writing I've ever seen in a game so far
