Journey to the Center of the Earth
Players guide Professor Lidenbrock, Axel, and Hans on a three-stage expedition beneath the Earth. They descend through the Icelandic volcano Snaefells, cross an underground sea, and escape through the erupting volcano on Stromboli. Players draw and use explorer and equipment cards to move the three adventurers, overcoming pits, whirlpools, and difficult terrain. Along the way, they collect water, fossils, and other natural treasures, while event cards introduce additional challenges. After the final escape, fossil collections, water, and bonus points determine the winner.

Tom3.5 A good recreation of the book. But the fact that you aren't an explorer, and a bit of dullness keep the game from one that I'm going to hang on to.
