Days of Wonder | Ticket to Ride Board Game | Ages 8+ | For 2 to 5 Players | Average Playtime 30-60 Minutes

I love ticket to ride. Such a great board game. This is the full version. The aim of the game is to build your train routes from one place to another. Rules are easy to follow and the game lasts approximately an hour (longer the first time you play). Whilst its slightly more expensive than other games I definitely think it's well worth the money.

Ticket to Ride is one of the classic modern style board games. I've been playing it on iPad for years, and whilst the app is good, it doesn't compare to playing it for real with the beautiful board and the colourful train pieces and cards. Although I was already familiar with the rules, I was surprised by how easy it was to learn for new players - I've introduced three new players to the game and they all picked it up straight away (and annoyingly beat me in some cases!) The one criticism I have is that the train cards and tickets are very small, and seem a bit like they were skimped on. This can be rectified by buying the 1910 expansion which has full sized train cards and tickets, but they really should have been provided as standard. On the opposite size, providing a bag of spare train pieces is a nice touch. The game's fun with two players, and that's how I've always played the app version, but it's especially good with three and four players. The gameplay really is so well designed and keeps the game flowing so well and exciting to the end. Games like Ticket to Ride don't seem to be nearly as well known as they should be. This, together with Carcassonne and perhaps a couple of others should feature just as commonly in homes as do more traditional games like Monopoly (actually more commonly, because it's a much better game than Monopoly). It has a mainstream appeal that I don't think is necessarily made particularly clear by its box and marketing, but I'd highly recommend that people give it a try, and if you like it, have a look at the 1910 expansion and some of the additional maps too.

I bought this game for our family game nights and it hasn't disappointed. The game is relatively simple in concept, you are competing with each other to gain rail routes across North America and ultimately score the most points. There are bonuses for the longest route and for each route you manage to gain from your cards (kept secret from the other players). We've found the level of complexity is just right for a family game; simple enough for children and to pick up without spending lots of time learning rules, but complex enough to involve strategy and keep things interesting. The board itself is beautiful and intuitively designed, and appears sturdily made. Each player also gets a collection of coloured plastic trains to place on the board which is a nice touch. Our games usually run just under an hour or so, which for us is ideal because it means they don't drag on or require us to set lots of time aside. Although invariable we've enjoyed it so much we play more than one game at a time!

Enjoyed by all, highly recommend

Great game and recommend it

Never play games, during covid thought id try a game bought because said it sold millions copies. Its very easy to learn, a game takes about 1 - 2 hours depending how slow players are. Its good quailty and the size can fit on a shelf. You need 2 players 3-4 is best. Its a good beginner game or a game you want to learn rules in 5 minutes.

Bought this for my 12 and 9 year old daughters and we've played it non-stop. Grandparents and friends too. The box makes it look quite boring but it's a really great game. Lasts about 30-40 minutes usually (unlike Monopoly) and there is no money (I'm always banker so that's a relief) or dice (to pick up off the floor). Really easy instructions. Loads of strategy and luck involved too. The game is a bit pricey but the quality of the board is very good and the 'cost per play' makes it a very cheap option as we've played it so much already. Can't recommend it highly enough, I'll be buying it for birthday presents for the rest of the year for anyone with kids aged seven upwards.

The product came within a few days of ordering undamaged, and all contents were accounted for. Ticket to Ride (North America) is the first entry of the series and (IMO) the best one to start with for new players, as it doesn't have added special game mechanics (i.e. railroad stations) compared to later versions (i.e., Europe, Japan, etc.) of the game. Ticket to Ride (North America) is an easy-to-learn game as the player has one of two actions per round, drawing or playing train cards to create an entire route from one city to another. The only small negative aspect I find with the game is the size of the train cards. It's half the size of the Ride to Ticket (Europe) version and hard to hold with big hands.

El juego ya lo conocía, muy divertido y gusta incluso a los más longevos (los abuelos rondando los 70 años están enganchadísimos). Las reglas son sencillas y éste en versión americana es mucho mejor que el versión europa por la distribución de las rutas. La única pega es que las instrucciones están en inglés, el resto del juego es independiente del idioma. Si el idioma de las instrucciones no es un problema, desde luego que no merece la pena pagar más porque estén en castellano. Es un juegazo.

Love this game! Easy to understand and requires the right mix of strategy and luck that anyone can master after a round of play. Great two player game! Usually takes about an hour to play
