Our first game was a 2 player with neutral player. Quite good. Neutral player took up some great routes and affected both of us. Bonus did not make a difference as my wife got the bonus but I still won. Second game with 4 players. Much more cut-throat. The bonus here did make quite a difference overall. I tend to think it is a bit overbalanced in points. Next play will be 5 players. one major negative factor with this board...the FONT used for towns is absolutely terrible. Very difficult to read, even looking at it directly, let alone from sides or upside down.

BGG Secret Santa 2016 Key differences: ticket values are inflated (from 12 to 35 points); unused tickets are discarded face-up, shuffled when pile is exhausted; players have a supply of bridge tokens that they have to pay whenever they build a route - prices vary from 1 to 4, and if a parallel route has already been built, the first builder receives the fee; the vast majority of the tracks are parallel; the only bonus is for the most bridge tokens remaining, and it's huge (up to 55 points); you can go into debt on the bridge tokens for a point penalty.

My wife is a dedicated Ticket to Ride fan, and she'll normally support me picking up any expansion for the game. I'm a little less enthusiastic, but even I have to admit that each expansion that Days of Wonder releases adds something new to the game and is very well thought out. This expansion is second only to the team versions of the Asia expansion. The need to pay tolls adds a new element to the game and encourages players to claim routes sooner instead of simply hoarding cards. I'm rating this after only one play with two players, but I'm enthusiastic to play this some more. The two player game requires a "dummy" player, but it actually works quite well. In fact, this map might be one of the best options for two behind something like Nordic countries.
