Ticket to Ride: Europe takes you on a new train adventure across Europe. From Edinburgh to Constantinople and from Lisbon to Moscow, you’ll visit great cities of turn-of-the-century Europe. Like the original Ticket to Ride, the game remains elegantly simple, can be learned in 5 minutes, and appeals to both families and experienced gamers. Ticket to Ride: Europe is a complete, new game and does not require the original version.

Accessible yet at least some depth. Good family game. However, I would NEVER play this unless I had a pressing reason (like playing with nongamer kids or something). Why play this newbie-friendly game when you could play a better one (Carcassonne)? Sure, it's better than Monopoly. That, however, does not make it any fun. Vastly over-rated game.

Ticket to Ride: Europe is an above-average strategy game. There's a lot of planning and you really have to try to figure out what your opponents are doing, otherwise, they might take valuable tracks before you can. There's a fairly good skill element to this game, but if I have a complaint, it's that there is a significant luck element in which routes you draw at the beginning of the game. It can be difficult to win with some of the Western European routes, and there's one high-scoring route between two cities that vastly superior to all others. In this sense, the game ends up being a bit like Risk in that there are really only maybe 3-4 viable winning strategies against good players. All the same, it's still a fun game with a lot of strategy. I think somewhere around a "7" is probably an appropriate rating.

A bit unsure of this one. I think I prefer the base version; too much to consider. We played with stations but not tunnels as they seemed to be slightly complex for a game of this type.
