Title: Fantastic game for all ages!
Review: The game is very easy to intuitively understand but also has enough depth for adults to play by themselves!The components and build quality are top notch! This is a game designed for some wear & tear. The art is amazing. The facts & historical moments are fascinating. The box and added plastic insert is awesome. It packs up & sets up very satisfyingly.It plays quick and breezy at a light/medium complexity weight.Honestly I'm very satisfied, very impressed, and my adult friends & I had fun!The only real con is that this game isn't so addicting or complex to withstand tons of playing for "advanced" gamers. If the theme doesn't already keep you coming back to the table don't expect the gameplay to, in my opinion. The gameplay is great but not a ton of depth.

Title: A family game that is fun and teaches history
Review: I read reviews that this was the best of the Trekking series so I got this first. The cards are great quality. The playing board is a mat that gets rolled up and put a away. weird at first but I like it. I did learn some things playing the game. There are notes on the cards that can be read. A fell in love with the mechanic of moving less means I could go again and possible a better card appear. It has some elements of 7 wonders game. This is several family members favorite game. I have to be careful not to overplay it and make others hate it.

Title: Surprisingly fun for a history themed game!
Review: I have always been interested in the Trekking games by Underdog games, but they looked too much like Ticket to Ride. Trekking Through History, however, was different enough for us to try it. We are a math/science family, but this game was still a huge hit for us. We the game was easy to understand and it felt great when you could achieve a long timeline of events or complete longer lines on your sheet for bonus points. The artwork is fantastic and the facts about the events on the back were interesting to read. It also plays super quickly (under an hour tops) and has interesting decisions and tension along the way. Definitely a recommended game from us!

Title: Highly Recommended Family Game - Simple Rules yet so tactical
Review: My wife and I love to play complex board games as we do enjoy the puzzling aspect and how it stimulates our brain into thinking about how to be efficient. This game is not something we would think of playing, but I personally purchase this for a couple of reasons. First, we do like Trekking The World as it reminds us of several other games we like, combine into one. So we decided to pick this up expecting it won't disappoint. And second, we need more welcoming games and we could pull out in case our family members wished to play.We played this game more than 5x now as it becomes my niece's favorite. She was not a board gamer but she enjoys the puzzle aspect of the game, especially in fulfilling your itinerary. This is not the game my wife and I would think of playing together, but I rated this as a 5-star as it really delivers as a family (lightweight) game. That even non-gamers or casual gamers would enjoy and would make them more interested in discovering what board gaming has to offer.Component-wise, I personally am so fascinated with the production quality. This was the first board game I had with a neoprene mat, and best of all, it does have a functional insert to store the components. Hand's down a top-notch production. I wish this would be the norm for all board games.Again, as a heavy gamer, though not the game I would always prefer playing, I'd still highly recommend this for families who want to play something fast, and simple yet offers a good amount of decision space.

Title: Fantastic in every way
Review: My family and I love everything about this game. We're big board game fans and have a good sized collection, but this is one that we keep coming back to.The game play isn't the most complex, but it does offer a variety of different win strategies so it's approachable from several angles. The build quality is among the best I've ever seen -- every component is high quality and feels absolutely amazing.This game is especially great when playing with others who aren't as embedded in the hobby as we are. It's a great starter game for friends and family, and it makes a great first impression on everyone we show it to.Highly recommended.

Review: We own at least 200 varied board games and this is the one that we can use for anyone: friends that love gaming, friends that aren't big gamers. It is simple enough to learn quickly and there is enough strategy to make every game different. You don't have to learn the history facts, but you can read the extra info on the cards as you play along, so it's good for those who love historical trivia as well as those who really don't care.

Review: Lovely colourful & educational family game. Looks great on the table, really lovely. This game is dressed to impress. Everything is beautiful & quality. Card illustrations are gorgeous & the backs have historical info on if you fancy a dabble in facts. You can choose when & where to trek. You have to weigh up your options. A long or short trek? Grab some points or stay in the past a bit longer to get more points? Your Ancestors can help if need be. We've only played at 2 player but can imagine this is more competitive at 4. I reckon it takes us about an hour to play. We don't rush through history. Nice game.

Review: Thème passionnant, illustration agréable, bonne mécanique de jeu et thermoformage absolument exceptionnel !Son seul défaut est qu'il n'existe qu'en anglais mais cela ne gêne en rien le jeu puisque c'est seulement pour lire le texte en rapport aux illustrations. Heureusement les règles en français sont disponibles en pdf sur le site de l'éditeur. Je le recommande vivement, les parties sont super sympa à jouer.
