Roll the dice and race a living map shaped by real weather, travel alerts, and festivals. Collect stamps in your passport as you go. Pass & play with friends!
Race from capital to capital across a hand-drawn atlas of the whole world — dodging border delays, riding lucky tailwinds, and out-maneuvering rivals along the way.
GLOBE RACE is a pass-and-play board game for 1–3 players, built around a simple loop: pick your start and destination, choose a heading at every crossroads, and roll the dice to advance. What makes each trip different is the world itself.
• A LIVING MAP — real weather and real travel advisories subtly shape your journey. Storm brewing over the Atlantic? Expect a rougher crossing. Elevated travel risk somewhere on your route? Expect a few more delays.
• BORDER TRIVIA MODE - Arrival at a border requires you to answer a region specific trivia question. Get it wrong and skip a turn. Roll a push play roll and get a tougher question. Even at sea, you might get stumped!
• A WORLD BRIEFING — before every race, check the conditions report: live weather warnings, travel alerts, disaster watches, and any festivals or holidays in season that might slow (or speed) your trip.
• A DECK OF TRAVEL CARDS — border crossings, sea passages, and city stops deal you cards ranging from lucky tailwinds and free flights to bureaucratic delays and the odd disaster. In multiplayer, some cards can be played on your rivals.
• A TRAVELER'S PASSPORT — every country you pass through earns a one-of-a-kind procedural stamp, kept forever in your personal passport. Watch your collection grow, race after race.
• DESTINATION PHOTOGRAPHY — arrive at your finish line to a swipeable gallery of real photos of the place you've reached, courtesy of Wikipedia.
• TWO WAYS TO PLAY — race classic capital-to-capital, or play Courier Run, where you must detour to collect cargo before dashing to the finish.
• PASS & PLAY — 1 player versus an AI rival, or 2–3 players sharing one device.
No accounts. No sign-ups. No ads. Just you, the dice, and the world.
v1.4 — The Border Quiz Update
Know the world? Prove it at the border.
• BORDER TRIVIA — a new house rule: crossing a border poses a question about the country you're entering. Answer right and you're waved through; wrong, and your passport is held for a day. Over 800 hand-written questions across every region, and no question ever repeats in a race — your rival answers by personality (Bertie guesses, Voss studied).
• OCEAN TRIVIA — sea crossings ask about the deep: whales, penguins, reefs and record-holders. And if you Push the Pace, expect a harder question at the checkpoint. (Sailing the boat? Your sea legs forgive one wrong answer on open water — every time.)
• A CLEANER MAP — routes now sit quietly in the background and detail appears as you zoom, so the world reads at a glance. Where to go is entirely up to you.
• THE GLOBE — races now open with a dive from orbit down to your starting capital, on a map that renders the real curve of the Earth.
• LIVELIER TOKENS — the plane banks toward its heading and casts a shadow, the boat leaves a wake, the bike a tire line, and the car fishtails off the line at the start of every move.
