10 Days in Africa (2003)

About this game

You have 10 DAYS IN AFRICA™ – touring by plane, car, and on foot. Chart your course from start to finish using destination and transportation tiles. With a little luck and clever planning, you just might outwit your fellow travelers. The first traveler to make correct connections for a ten-day journey wins the game. Tiles are arranged on a player's tray, then a new tile is drawn. It can be used to replace a tile on one of the "days." Then that tile or the drawn tile are discarded face-up to one of three discard piles. Tiles may not be rearranged, only replaced. You must complete your journey correctly, connecting by foot - bordering country tiles set side-by-side, air - countries of the same color with a same-colored airplane between them, or automobile - a car can drive between two countries and a third country which borders them. Whoever is the first to connect all 10 days wins the game. This is the second installment in the 10 Days in series.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.4/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
