What should I watch after Around the World in Eighty Days?

Both the 1989 TV miniseries and the 2021 TV series Around the World in 80 Days faithfully follow Fogg and Passepartout's globe-trotting wager, with the latter adding a sharp journalist companion for extra drama.

Is there a game like Around the World in Eighty Days?

Are there other Jules Verne adaptations worth exploring?

The Fabulous World of Jules Verne (1958) and Verne: The Shape of Fantasy (2023) both draw directly from Verne's imagination — the former a cinematic sci-fi adventure, the latter an indie game set in an alternate 1888 world he inhabits as a character.
