It's more luck-based than 'grown up' Ticket to Ride, plays faster, and takes out the point calculation. In other words, it's exactly what it is meant to be, Ticket to Ride Jr. The production is nice, and it does teach you the groundwork for the other games in the series, but it does some of that decision making in the original. Bought for my son when he's older.

This is Locke's (5) favourite new game, overtaking Flea Circus! He is constantly asking for this and does a great job of keeping up with everyone else. He is yet to win, but he is close every time. We just need to show him the most efficient way to get to his tickets, especially when he receives new tickets. He gets stuck on finishing them in the order he receives them. Adults are happy to play this with him, as we can enjoy the tactics that are still apparent. We may add in TTR rules about having a row of cards to pick from.

All draws being random kills this completely, IMO. Not even my son has asked for this as often as London or New York, though we got this one later. I think those games are much better for children than this one.
