    80 Days has more travel destinations than one vacation allows for, but should travelers bore of touring the streets of Venice or the sandy stretches of the Rub' Al Khali desert, a new route to the arctic will soon open, according to a related press release. The new, chilled destinations will share a December 16 arrival date with 80 Days' Android version, though a free update will add the new environments to the existing iOS version. Managing Editor Susan Arendt planned strings of vacations as Passepartout, itinerary planner of the wealthy Fogg, and found that 80 Days' choose-your-own-adventure journey holds "no clear right or wrong choices." While sorting the logistical travel details out provided entertaining obstacles, Susan added that 80 Days' strong writing "effortlessly strings together tiny vignettes to create a world on the brink of change, bristling with the excitement of possibility and the fear of the coming unknown."
