The "plot twist" for this version of Ticket To Ride is the introduction of bridge tokens required for every route. Due to the low laying lands of Netherlands. Making sure you have enough money for tokens as you play the game is sort of interesting, but dealing with all the little tokens in your playing area is sort of annoying. Although the board is beautiful (as most Ticket To Ride boards are) the city names are VERY hard to read since their written in a scripty font. That on top of the fact that you've probably never heard of these places when playing the game, a ton of time is spent staring at the little maps on your tickets trying to figure out where you need to go.

The Nederland Map Collection is a failed attempt at making Ticket to Ride a little harder: actually the beauty of the original game comes from its simplicity, which the tolls you have to pay (to either the bank or another player who built the same track as you before you) utterly spoil, as they put too much strategy and control into an otherwise straightforward game.

Rating decreased from 7.5 due to luck involved in whether others use your track and tickets. Tolls are a bit random and worth too much.
