Ticket to Ride
Game Box

Ticket to Ride is a cross-country train adventure in which players collect and play matching train cards to claim railway routes connecting cities through North America!

Game Board

The original Ticket to Ride is perfect for an experienced tabletop enthusiast, families, and those new to the hobby. Simple rules and beautiful design make it easy for anyone to play and have fun!

Board overview

Players compete to connect iconic cities across the United States by claiming railway routes on the map board. The person with the highest number of total points wins!

Pieces

To earn points on their cross-country train adventure, players claim routes between two cities, complete Destination Tickets, and compete to claim the longest continuous path of routes across the map.

Trains

A player will claim a route between two cities by playing matching train cards equal to the number of spaces in the route. Missing a specific color card? Try using the powerful Locomotive card that can be used as any color.

Card

While connecting cities, keep an eye on your routes! If you manage to have the longest continuous path on the map board, you will earn special points at the end of the game.

Closeup

Earn additional points by completing Destination Tickets. These cards will ask you to connect specific cities through whatever route necessary. However, be careful because any Destination Ticket left uncompleted will result in negative points!

Echo Dot

Using a compatible Echo device, say “Alexa, launch Ticket to Ride” and be taken on a guided tour from the beginning to end of the game. No rule book is needed. You can even play against Alexa!

Assembling train routes across the U.S. not only sparks a healthy sense of competition but also provides an entertaining way for kids to learn and reinforce their geography skills. The game strikes a perfect balance between fun and education.

    The quality of the components, from the beautifully illustrated board to the sturdy train pieces, reflects the attention to detail by Days of Wonder. The game's durability ensures that it can withstand the excitement of countless play sessions without showing signs of wear.

    With an average playtime of 30-60 minutes, "Ticket to Ride" is an ideal choice for a quick family game night or a longer gaming session. The strategic elements keep players engaged, and the excitement builds as the train routes unfold.

    What truly sets this game apart is its versatility. Whether you're a seasoned board gamer or someone new to the hobby, "Ticket to Ride" offers a fantastic experience. The game accommodates 2 to 5 players, making it perfect for family gatherings or smaller group settings.

    In conclusion, "Ticket to Ride" is a board game masterpiece that seamlessly combines entertainment and education. It's a journey worth taking, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to families looking for a game that bridges the generation gap and guarantees a trainload of fun!

    Ticket to Ride is a board game that has earned its place as a modern classic, and for good reason. It's a game that combines strategy, competition, and a dash of geography, all packaged into an experience that's incredibly enjoyable for players of all ages. Having played Ticket to Ride, I can confidently say that it's one of the most engaging and accessible board games out there.

    The game's premise is simple yet captivating: Players aim to complete train routes across North America (or other regions, depending on the version) to fulfill their destination tickets and accumulate points. Here's what I love about it:

    Accessibility: Ticket to Ride is remarkably easy to learn. You can teach it to newcomers in about 10 minutes, making it an excellent choice for introducing friends and family to the world of board gaming.

    Engaging Strategy: While the rules are straightforward, the strategy runs deep. There's a constant balance between completing routes efficiently, blocking your opponents, and adapting to unforeseen circumstances. This mix of planning and adaptability keeps the game interesting and competitive.

    Beautiful Components: The game comes with high-quality components, including detailed train pieces and a colorful game board. The visual appeal adds to the overall experience.

    Variety: Ticket to Ride offers multiple editions with different maps, each providing a unique experience. Whether you prefer the original North American map or want to explore other continents, there's something for everyone.

    Social Interaction: The game encourages interaction and friendly competition. You'll find yourself engaged in conversations, negotiations, and even a bit of friendly rivalry as you strive to complete your routes.

    Educational Element: Playing Ticket to Ride can be educational, as it offers a subtle way to learn about geography and city locations.

    Replayability: With different maps and strategies to explore, you'll find yourself coming back to Ticket to Ride again and again. No two games are ever quite the same.

    Highly Recommended.

    Ordered on a guess, never seen one like this one before - turned out a fantastic table game! Fairly simple rules, clearly explained without any fuzz or gray areas. Infinitely replayable and just long enough. Became instant favorite in our family.

    Ticket to Ride can take some time to learn and it can be difficult to teach the game to others quickly, however its totally worth it in the end. The game does not take too long to complete, gives players opportunities to strategize and mess up other players' game plans and it is highly re-playable with a great number of routes to complete. Definitely a great choice for board game night.

    Happy with this purchase. Played it with friends and had to have it. Just the right amount of challenge and strategy while still being easy to learn. The cards are smaller in this edition but still very usable. (Most cards with this game are the size of a regular deck of playing cards these are a little more than 1/2 that size.) All the parts were there and in perfect condition. I also bought the UK expansion pack which does not come with it's own trains (in case you decide to buy it). I expect many hours of fun in my future. If you love board games and like a little challenge, you'll love Ticket To Ride.

    It's so chill (if you play with 3 people), it can get a bit hectic if you play with 4 and be prepared to ruin relationships but it will all be worth it because the game is excellent.

    Este juego es muy divertido y fácil de aprender. Mi mamá es adulta mayor y lo entendió a la primera. Le gusta porque le ayuda a estar atenta y ejercitando su mente, pero sin ser demasiado complicado o demasiado fácil. Otra cosa buena es que los turnos son muy rápidos, por lo que no hay que esperar mucho entre turno y turno, aunque se juegue entre 5 jugadores. También está padre que es de esos juegos donde todos pueden competir amistosamente o hacerse la guerra para bloquearse unos a otros, dependiendo del estilo de cada quien. Los carritos de tren y el tablero están muy bien hechos y son bonitos. Tal vez me gustaría que las cartas fueran más grandes, porque son algo difíciles de barajar. Esta edición no tiene túneles ni estaciones, como la Europea, pero de todos modos se juega bien.
