From the manufacturer
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!
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!
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!
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!

Top reviews from other countries
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.
