Ticket to Ride Europe | Board Game

While the original Ticket to Ride board game let players link the great cities of America by rail, it wasn't long before the award-winning Days of Wonder classic got an updated version that was a touch closer to home.

Ticket to Ride Europe takes the map of Europe during the golden age of steam train travel as its game board, and tasks players with constructing and commanding the routes that link Edinburgh and London to Contanstinople, Paris, Berlin and Kiev - plus many more - in order to win.

Like editions of the Ticket to Ride board game released before and since, the appeal of Ticket to Ride Europe is that it's easy to learn, but takes plenty of skill to master. Colourful rail routes and the element of chance offered by the game card deck make each game a refreshing new challenge for between two and five players.

The game's suitable for those aged eight and above, with a typical game lasting between half an hour to an hour - great for quick, easy-to-set-up tests of wit on rainy afternoons or at board games night.
