Ticket to Ride is an award winning, cross-country train adventure game. Players collect train cards that enable them to claim railway routes connecting cities throughout North America. The longer the routes, the more points they earn.

The official Alexa skill takes players on a guided experience from setup to the end of the game and features unique sound effects and music. No rules are needed after saying “Alexa, launch Ticket to Ride.” The skill also allows a person to play against Alexa! For 2 to 5 players ages 8 and older. Playing time: 30-60 minutes. Comes with: 1 Board map of North American train routes, 240 Colored Train Cars, 110 Train Car cards, 30 Destination Tickets, 5 Wooden Scoring Markers, 1 Days of Wonder Online access number, and a Rules booklet.

Title: Best board game ever
Review: We have a lot of games and this is probably one of my familyâs favorites. We have played it a lot since we bought it. It has started a great trend of playing games together which is a fun way to spend time as a family. It is complex enough to keep interest but not so challenging that we donât want to play it. It takes about an hour per game. It has been great for my 9 and 11 year old boys.

Title: Great game
Review: Our family has played this game so much since we got it! Itâs been a favorite around our place. Compared to other board games, set-up is a breeze, and itâs a good one for a variety of agesâmy 9-year-old sister has enjoyed playing it, as well as older members of the family. My only complaint would be how tiny the cards areâthat makes them slightly more difficult to hold than most normal game cards. Still, well worth the buy. Thereâs lots of fun to be had and memories to be made around this game!

Title: amazing game, everyone loves it!
Review: I've always been hit or miss when it comes to board games, usually they'll be decently fun at the start but I would get bored of them as we get a few more reps in. The first time I played ticket to ride I got hooked onto it. The game design and strategy is just top notch and the physical quality is pretty good. Pretty much everyone I've played it with has nothing but good things to say about the game.They even have additional versions of the game now corresponding to various geographic regions and they don't disappoint. I found that it's also relatively colorblind friendly as there are various indicators to help you decipher the differences that aren't just color based! Highly recommend!

Title: Fun game even for 2 players
Review: My teen daughter & I play board/card games weekly so we're always on the lookout for games that can be played just with 2 players. We love this game. Easy to understand & play. Not super quick or too long.

Review: As a self-proclaimed board game fanatic, Ticket to Ride quickly became one of my all-time favorites! Itâs deceptively simpleâjust build train routesâbut trust me, the competition heats up faster than you can say âchoo-choo.â My family and I started off polite, quietly connecting cities, but before long, we were gleefully sabotaging each otherâs routes.The best part? Itâs easy enough for beginners yet still strategic enough for seasoned gamers. If you like a mix of plotting, blocking, and a bit of luck, this game is a must-have!
