Days of Wonder - Ticket to Ride - North America - Board Game

Build your railroad across North America to connect cities and complete tickets. "The rules are simple enough to write on a train ticket — each turn you either draw more cards, claim a route, or get additional 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 critical route to a competitor."Ticket to Ride continues in the tradition of Days of Wonder's big format board games featuring high-quality illustrations and components including: an oversize board map of North America, 225 custom-molded train cars, 144 illustrated cards, and wooden scoring markers. Since its introduction and numerous subsequent awards, Ticket to Ride has become the BoardGameGeek epitome of a "gateway game" -- simple enough to be taught in a few minutes, and with enough action and tension to keep new players involved and in the game for the duration.Part of the Ticket to Ride series.Game Contents1 Board map of North American train routes225 Colored Train Cars144 Illustrated cards5 Wooden Scoring Markers1 Rules bookletGame Information2 - 5 Players30 - 60min Play TimeAge 8
