With elegantly simple gameplay, Ticket to Ride can be learned in under 15 minutes, while providing players with intense strategic and tactical decisions every turn. Players collect cards of various types of train cars they then use to claim railway routes in North America. The longer the routes, the more points they earn. Additional points come to those who fulfill Destination Tickets – goal cards that connect distant cities; and to the player who builds the longest continuous route.

I have played this one many more times than I've recorded. I think it is a fine gateway game, but I do not find it particularly engaging nor strategic. The value of laying down 5 or 6 link tracks is too high compared to ticket completion, which essentially breaks the game.

A great family game. Fun and easy to learn and play. A very nice, well-rounded game. iPhone/iPad app version is sheer awesomeness, a 9+ easily.

Along with Catan, this is one of the evergreen/gateways of modern board games. You place trains on tracks in order to complete your tickets and score points. Simple straightforward game.
