Ticket to Ride

Ticket to Ride

This is the Dutch-language edition. Thanks to its elegantly simple gameplay, you can learn Ticket to Ride in less than 15 minutes. Players collect cards of various types of train cars, which they then use to claim railway routes in North America. The longer the routes, the more points they earn. Extra points go to those who complete Destination Tickets: goal cards that connect distant cities, and to the player who builds the longest continuous route.

"The rules are simple enough to write on a train ticket: on each turn you draw more cards, claim a route or get extra destination tickets," says Ticket to Ride author Alan R. Moon. "The tension comes from being forced to balance greed (adding more cards to your hand) and fear, losing a crucial route to a competitor."

Ticket to Ride continues the tradition of Days of Wonder's large format board games with high quality illustrations and components, including: an extra large board map of North America, 225 custom moulded train cars, 144 illustrated cards and wooden scoring markers.
