Geography Board Game - does anyone know this game?

In My Humble Opinion
1

When I was a kid, in the 1970s, early 1980s, we used to play a board game that a friend of my Mom’s had supposedly brought us from a trip to Europe. It could have been a trip within the US or somewhere else, though.

It was an English-language game, and the board was a map of the world.
You drew cards to find out what your home city was, and you put a pin in your home city. Then you drew a card to see where you had to go next, and you stuck a pin in that city. Then you either spun a wheel or rolled dice (I don’t remember which) to move. You had to follow established routes, and I seem to remember that the modes of transportation had different color lines, and you could not use two modes of transportation in the same move.

It was definitely NOT the National Geographic Global Pursuit game. My BF has that game and it’s not the same.

Though as an aside, if anyone has the rules to Global Pursuit and are willing to fax them to me, I’d appreciate it. We don’t have the rules for it any longer.

don’t know that game but the trivial pursuit people made a game called UBI. It’s a combo trivia and geography game.

For istance

UBI the first round of links played.

So IF

You know a round of links is golf

and

You know golf was invented in Scotland

then you have to find Scotland on an unlabled world map.

It’s fun. Really.

That does sound like fun, actually.
I’ll look at it next time I’m at a games or toy store.
Thx for the suggestion.
