Note: This game is in both English/German.

Round the World is a real-time card game played simultaneously. The players are travel agents creating "trips" around the world for their customers. Each "flight card" shows two continents (each continent has its own color): a "departure" and a "destination" connected by an airplane/arrow. You try to get rid of your own 30 card deck within exactly 5 minutes by creating "trips" card by card with matching colors from card to card until the trip is complete and can be "booked" (saved for scoring).

All players play at the same time, everybody to their own speed and rhythm. Holding your deck in one hand, you draw the top card as your sole "hand card" and add it to the ones you placed before in front of you to create "trips" - or put it under the deck again. When you add a card, you may pick up the card from the other end of the trip and continue using this as your "hand card". You may also add cards to your opponents' trips - and take cards (you desperately need) from them. But beware: all cards not "booked" (still in the deck / incomplete trips) are scored negative - so with your deck emptied too soon your opponents are able to lengthen your trips without completing them ...

A game consists of two rounds of 5 minutes plus two simple scoring phases. The focus of the game is on your perfect timing within the 5 minutes, keep an eye on cards with landmarks (better for scoring!), and on your opponents "offers". There are variants included shifting the focus and making the game more challenging.

The late 1960's: During the "Cold War", secret services pull the strings, and agents are sent around the world exchanging information at top secret meetings.

Despite the fact that they represent one of the big powers of espionage, the players manipulate agents of all countries – only the ones of the direct opposite are out of their control. The aim of the game is to guide the agents in such a way that all countries get the same amount of information. Only this guarantees the global balance of power. However, agents tend to live a double life; aside from their official identity, they also work for another country – undercover.

In Undercover, the countries are represented by the six colors of the color circle: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue and Purple. During the game, players place and replace the agents adjacently to others with matching colors — the same or one of the two neighbored colors on the color circle. Tiles can be flipped before being replaced, and later flipped again and again. Since the tiles show different colors on the sides - again two colors neighbored on the color wheel - there is a strong deduction element in the game (while younger kids rather will play it using their memory).

For the highest score you need to score for all colors more or less equally. The player who coordinated the meetings of agents of all countries in the most clever way wins the game.
