Ticket to Ride Reviews
Great game
This is a great game and easy to learn. Lots of fun and different every time. It’s a good way to reinforce your US geography knowledge too.
Great
This is a WONDERFUL game! Fun for the whole family! The item was shipped very fast, and was still in the wrapping! Great item a must have.
Excellent Game Providing Endless Hours of Family Fun
I don’t have much to add to the other reviews, other than to throw my two-cents in the ring to say this is an excellently engineered (no pun intended) game that has provide our family (3 boys ages 7, 9, and 12) endless hours of fun. We play it so much that we don’t even take the time to count of the points anymore as it’s just fun to play the game. Not many games can say that.
Improvements: For the price, it would be nice if the larger cards from the expansion pack were included vs an additional expensive add-on. Also for the price, it would be a nice touch if the trains were wooden vs plastic (feels cheap).
Recommendation: Do yourself a favor and pick up the 1910 Expansion Set while you’re at it for the larger playing cards. This makes it easier to hold all the cards in your hands.
Summary: If you’re looking for a game that is pure joy vs American-based games that are “kill your opponent to the very end and make them miserable along the way”, give this game a try.
