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.

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.

There's a few different routes to victory. I like that you can throw in some defensive play as well as the typical offensive play in such games. Light on player interaction and nothing particularly new about the game system but it's delivered in a very appealing package by Days of Wonder. And I love a pleasing train theme.

A good, light, fun family game; it is easy to learn, not overly confrontational, has a good dose of luck but still a decent amount of strategy required, looks nice and cool and attractive on the table, and has fun little bits to play with when you're waiting for your turn. I like trains.
