The board game of Mornington Crescent is based on the London Underground tube map. It was widely popularized in the 1970s on a British radio program called "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue". It is played worldwide, and there are many variants based on local geography, local customs, or indeed anything that attracts the fancy of the players. It is well-suited for play on the web and there are several popular servers.
