Underworld Couriers is a pick-up and deliver game with a twist. Players are couriers contracted to carry illicit goods around a map of the globe. Using a timeline, players must plan the most effective mode of travel between pick-up point and delivery location (air, road, rail or ship). Each of these types of transport takes travels at a different speed, costs various amounts and entails certain risks (passing through customs). Successfully completing a delivery will earn the player Notoriety and money. But be careful not to get caught or you risk a stint in jail. The most Notorious player at the end of the game is the winner.
