I bought this for my sons birthday and the whole family has enjoyed this game. It is fun and never the same. Adults and children will have fun.

I'm not much of a boardgame guy, but after playing the demo for TICKET TO RIDE on Xbox Live, I decided to pick up a copy of the actual board game. I'm glad I did.
So far, I've introduced this to two totally different groups of people (my family and colleagues at work) and both of them enjoyed themselves immensely. It's very easy to grasp the rules, and while there is some competition between players, it's definitely not a cut-throat experience.
Much, much more entertaining than traditional American games like Monopoly (at least for me).

I really enjoy playing this game with family and friends. It is even fun to play with older children. I was first introduced to this game with the europe version - I really liked that version better than the USA one because of the tunnels you can do. But this is a great starter one to get you going and aquainted to the game. I will definately be buying more versions of this game! Only gripe is - cards are small.

I bought this game on a recommendation from a friend and it is a great addition to any board game collection. How can you beat a combination of Risk and becoming the next American railroad tycoon? I highly recommend this game for any party or gathering.

My family and I saw Ticket to Ride demoed at a game store in the Adirondacks and have wanted it ever since, but were a little put off by the $49.95 price. I wanted a new game to bring to our family reunion, and thought TTR was just the, well... ticket. I watched it on Amazon, and ordered it when the price dropped a little. The game has been very well received by our family. Our youngest daughter, 10, is probably the most enthusiastic, especially after winning the second game we played! The rules are straightforward, and the game play is simple--players choose one of three possible actions for their turn--making the game as easy to start playing as any of the more well known family board games, like Sorry, Life, or Clue. It's on par with Risk or Monopoly in that developing a plan will help you win the game, but the game is still enjoyable if played more casually. Game play is fast once you get into a rhythm. The bright, colorful, and solidly made game components look to last for years of hard play. It even comes with a few extra pieces of each color, as a protection against loss. The availability of expansion modules (USA 1910, Switzerland) and companion editions (Europe, Marklin (Germany) and Nordic Countries) means if you like TTR, you'll be able to play variants for years to come. (My 13 year old daughter has already asked for TTR Europe for Christmas.) A real bonus is the key that comes inside the game, enabling you to play online at the Days of Wonder website. You can play solo against capable "bots," or test your skill against hundreds of online human opponents. All in all, well worth the above-average price, and lots of fun.
