Ticket to Ride: Rails & Sails takes the familiar gameplay of Ticket to Ride and expands it across the globe — which means that you’ll be moving across water, of course, and that’s where the sails come in.

Played two player game. Got extremely lucky on my ticket route draws. Ended up comboing all three of my Harbours for a win of 327 to 151. Felt extremely unbalanced as a result. I enjoy the added complication of managing your trains vs ships, but still prefer TTR: Europe for the best base game. Have played Rails and Sails 2, 3, and 4 player. Prefer 2 and 3 player games due to reduced length compared to 4 players. Honestly disappointed by the game, it seems to come down to getting lucky and getting tickets that combo with the harbours.

I was surprised how much my wife and I enjoyed this Ticket to Ride release. We bought it with high anticipation and before we played watched Dice Tower review of it. I was disappointed to see Tom Vasel not like this game. But when we played it, we loved it so much. We have played only Ticket to Ride, Ticket to Ride Europe, and Nordic Countries, but this one moved to the top of our list. The game is longer, but the tension was there the whole time. We played the World side with 5 people, and the Great Lakes side with just us two. Both were great but we prefer the World side and can't wait to play again. 9.5 for excellence. Not 10 because for how much money it is, the train and boat pieces did not seem as high of quality, but the more we play it the less I mind because I'm having a lot of fun. Probably would rate a little lower because of price, but we got it brand new for $50 instead of $80, so can't complain. Even with the 80 dollars I still would rate 8.5 because the game is great.

Using two separate decks for trains & ships (to build separate routes) makes for a variation on the usual theme. Very congested (as would be expected with 5 players). Probably an unnecessary step for Ticket to Ride – it extends the game too much.
