Product Description

From the Manufacturer

This expansion for the Ticket to Ride boardgame will have you rolling your way to victory. It is compatible with any Ticket to Ride board map. Players still try to complete their Destination Tickets by claiming routes while blocking each other on the map, but instead of drawing Train cards, they roll the five custom Train dice on each turn. They can then use the dice to claim routes, collect Route Tokens to be used later in the game, or draw more Destination Tickets. Three Tunnel dice are included for board maps that have Tunnel routes.

Product Description

Add the Ticket to Ride - The Dice Expansion to your Ticket to Ride game! This expansion is compatible with all Ticket to Ride board games and adds even more element of luck! Players use the dice, in place of drawing cards, to fulfill their destination tickets and claim their routes. Includes 5 dice and 3 additional tunnel dice (for games with tunnel routes).

Contents of Ticket to Ride - The Dice Expansion:

• 1 Dice Cup


• 8 Custom Dice


• Tokens


• Rules (English, French, German, Italian, Spanish)

Please Note: This is not a stand alone game. It requires any Ticket to Ride board game to play.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as fun as the TTR cards, January 6, 2009

Got the dice expansion pack and played Ticket to Ride with the Dice. The group of people I played with, myself included, all agreed that the dice expansion pack make the game easier and faster, but not as fun as with playing with the TTR colored train cards. We want to create a few house rules to implement the dice portion into regular play.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bad Expansion for Best Family Game on the Market., December 27, 2008

= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

For the first time I have been disappointed by a Ticket to Ride expansion and a Days of Wonder Product. Look, Ticket to Ride is one the best games, and in my opinion the best family game on the market. This substitutes dice rolling for the acquisition of cards on the board. While it produces a different game which is alright, the original use of cards is much more fun.

If you don't have Ticket to Ride, buy it. If you have it, purchase one of the other expansions first. This pleasure can be postponed indefinitely.

If you love a really epic game of Ticket to Ride, then this probably isn't for you, but a lot of the people I play with prefer a more casual atmosphere. This speeds the game up, and keeps everyone on the same footing.
