Category Description for Ticket to Ride
In Ticket to Ride, 2 to 5 players draw tickets to connect rail routes between major cities and attempt to complete them in the most direct route possible. Longer routes and longer sections score more points than shorter ones. Since routes can have sections that overlap, competition for certain segments adds to the excitement. Ticket to Ride game strategy is not too complicated, so younger players are not at a disadvantage. Games last between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the number of players.
The original Ticket to Ride game is based on North American geography, while Ticket to Ride Europe has slightly different rules and covers Europe and eastern Asia. Ticket to Ride USA 1910 is an expansion that allows 3 more variations of the basic game. Additional Ticket to Ride expansions cross the exotic lands of Asia, from Africa, to Germany, and all the way to the Northern face of Europe. Explore wildly different locations and circumstances around the globe as you expand your train lines in these different editions. The gameplay of each is similar to the original Ticket to Ride, but each map has its own challenges to overcome, including mountains, valleys, ferries, rough terrain, tolls, and other unique regional challenges. Despite the varying climates, treacherous landscapes, and locational nuances, your goal is the same. Create the best route, collect the most valuable tickets, and connect cities to beat your competition!
Games listed as Expansions require Ticket to Ride or Ticket to Ride Europe to play. Other editions are stand-alone and require no other Ticket to Ride games to play. Ticket to Ride Express Editions are fast-paced standalone games based in individual cities, such as Berlin, London, Paris, and New York. These Express versions have gameplay that lasts only around 15 minutes. Happy travels!
